American trucks like the Silverado 1500, RAM 1500, and Ford F-150 are increasingly seen on Australian roads, and many owners are aware these vehicles are heavily raked from the factory – the rear end is higher than the front.
Fulcrum Suspensions, recognising this trend, offers a solution with its Bilstein Levelling Kits, designed to balance the vehicle by levelling the front with the rear; enhancing ground clearance at the front for a smoother, more even driving experience.
Fulcrum's Bilstein Levelling Kits are specifically tailored for American trucks, featuring US-Spec Bilstein 5100 shocks. These shocks are not just any ordinary upgrade, they're a game-changer for truck enthusiasts. With the ability to lift the front end up to 2.5 inches while maintaining the truck's OEM springs, the original ride comfort is preserved. The zinc-coated body of the Bilstein 5100 shocks provides superb corrosion resistance, making them a durable choice for the varied Australian landscape.
The technical prowess of the Bilstein 5100s lies in their high-performance valving, offering maximum control and vastly improving stability under various conditions, whether it's off-roading adventures or highway cruising.
These shocks are particularly beneficial for towing, significantly enhancing stability and control, reducing sway and the "boaty" feel often experienced in unmodified trucks. The innovative levelling mechanism of the shocks, with multiple grooves for a circlip, allows for adjustable spring seating, enabling easy vehicle height modification for perfect balance and alignment.
Fulcrum's suspension upgrade redefines the driving dynamics of American trucks in Australia. By eliminating uneven stance and improving stability and control, the Fulcrum solution transforms these vehicles into a more balanced and enjoyable driving experience.
For those seeking the ultimate upgrade, consider complementing the Bilstein Levelling Kits with Polyair Airbag kits. These kits add another layer of stability and control, particularly useful for heavy towing and load-carrying, rounding out the suspension package and enhancing the truck's performance to its peak potential.
