Your SUV or pickup truck was designed to provide good handling with a comfortable ride. Manufacturers set vehicle ride heights as a compromise to please the majority of their customers who want a more commanding view of the road and better snow clearance. For the driver that wants to scrape the ground without being slammed in the back with a harsh ride, Belltech offers this set of replacement hangers and shackles that reposition leaf spring ends higher, lowering the truck’s rear ride height. In the kit, you’ll also get bump stops, rubber eye bushings, emergency brake cable relocation bracket(s), spacers, and all hardware.

Because Belltech believes products that do not last are not worth building, they take every effort to ensure all components will maintain their integrity over a long period of time. Reinforced, heavy-grade steel provides the strength and rigidity needed to stand up to heavy loads and large tires, and durable powder coat finish ensures steel surfaces remain protected from corrosion thanks to its high resistance to peeling, chipping, or scratching in extreme conditions. Once installed, the reduced ride height lowers your vehicle’s center of gravity which, in turn, reduces body roll and any tendencies to lean over. The result is more stable handling at any speed and reduced oversteer where high mass pushes the rear of your vehicle sideways.

Founded in 1983 in Fresno, California, Belltech® Suspensions began with a mission of filling a need that existed in the marketplace for quality lowering kits that provided full-size pickups with an aggressive stance and a ride that wasn't severely punishing. After developing state-of-the-art drop spindles, coil springs, and shackle hanger kits, word of mouth spread about the design, reliability, and smooth operation of their products - earning Belltech respect among demanding California custom builders and racers. The consistent high quality and cutting-edge functionality of their lowering kits allowed them to grow in the marketplace, and the company expanded to their current location in neighboring Sanger, CA. Belltech merged with German-based KW Suspensions in 2005, and today draws on a wealth of engineering talent that has produced joint products with automotive manufacturers such as AMG, Roush, and Viper and been involved in world-class racing series. Our website is proud to offer best values on the full lineup of Belltech quality air springs, compressors, coilover sets, lowering kits, shock absorbers, anti-sway bars, lift kits, and alignment kits which prove that lowered style and ride comfort are not mutually exclusive.

Slammed Enough
Had it on for a week now. No problems. Perfect amount to drop your truck. Some knowledge and a ball joint puller makes the job much more easier, especially if the ball joints were never pulled out before. U-bolts are a bit too long, so you'll be wrenching on them for awhile but it helps if you're not removing the rear shocks. Very little grinding i had to do on the lower arm and splash plate for the front. Truck i installed this on was a 2000 Chevrolet S10 xtreme extended cab.

Gito's Experience.
I purchased a 2" front & back drop kit from Belltech. Truck looks beautiful, nice and low. Handles much better on the freeways now. However, on residential streets it's a very bumpy ride. So much that it affects my cd player, it skips on bumpy roads. Need to look into a anti-skip player. Cost for the Bellteck kit was OK. However the installation was a bit pricey. Also the front dropped 3 inches instead of 2. Looks good but tires rub when making a hard turn. Could be that my tires are to wide & low profile. Not going to modify the finders, I will buy a more narrow tire next time. I don't know if having dropped my truck was worth all the changes I have to make. The kit itself was high grade material. I would recommend this product to a friend.
