hawks Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Just purchased a set of Belltech Street Performance Shocks for my ss today. Was going to just get the Nitros but the sales man talked me into these. I guess because the performers cost 60.00 more than the Nitro's. Does anyone have these on there trucks? If so how do you like them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercharged06SS Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 they are okay, i prefer my old edelbrock IAS shocks tho. Night and day difference IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 i saw a huge improvement from their old nitro actives, which the street performance replaced. i like them, and they seem to handle lots of unsprung weight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96vteccd5 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Right now I don't plan on lowering my truck but I am wondering will they work well on a non-lowered vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allballz57 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I have them and like them a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaper Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I have them and couldn't be happier with them. Considering my Bilsteins were shot anything would have been an improvement, though. It's hard to describe the ride. It is firm but not harsh. It just feels really controlled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Hall Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I just installed them on the front, They seem to smooth out the bigger bumps a little , but with lower profile tires I feel everything anyway,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haul@ss Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 (edited) Right now I don't plan on lowering my truck but I am wondering will they work well on a non-lowered vehicle. I would be very careful when purchasing the shocks because if you get ones that are meant for lowered vehicles, my guess would be that they might be too short for non-lowered ones.

I think thats what he meant... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champion201 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I have them, Love them! I did a wriye up on my website awhile back. And as stated above, in comparrison to the old Nitro Active shocks the Performers are FAR superior. LINKY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96vteccd5 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yea Stylinconcepts has them for non-lowered applications. I guess I will order them sometime this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I bought these to go with my new 2/4 Mcgaughlys kit. The front drivers side stock shock has leaked some oil out so I'm replacing all shocks when I do the kit.

shadowsniper3006 Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 hey guys sorry to dig up an old post, but i have a part number question. I called belltech to get the part number for a stock ride height ss and they gave me 310400 and 2212ff for the part numbers. I took the shocks out and measured them before installing them and the rears are 1.5" shorter and the fronts are .75 shorter. So the guys that used them are they on a stock ride height truck and if so are those the part numbers you used? Thanks Much! Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are at stock ride height, I would suggest the Bilsteins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
