Construction & Design

The Trail Performance Leveling Front Strut is constructed with premium materials and precision engineering to meet the rigorous demands of modern Ram 1500 trucks. The 18mm hardened chrome piston rods offer exceptional strength and corrosion resistance, delivering long-lasting durability even under heavy use.

The 51mm shock body is designed to hold a larger volume of oil, which helps maintain consistent damping performance by improving heat dissipation during extended or aggressive driving. Belltech’s patented ring and perch system allows for easy and accurate height adjustments without the need for multiple part numbers or complicated modifications.

Additional features such as triple lip NBR rod seals and Teflon guide bushings minimize internal friction and wear, contributing to a smooth and responsive ride. The inclusion of OEM quality rubber bushings ensures a quiet, secure mounting interface that meets factory standards.
