I've been using the Belltech Nitro 2's since about January or so and they work better then Toxics ever thought of working. I used Toxics after I lowered the truck back in 2004 and never liked them.

If you're willing to drop big bucks on those Doetsch shocks I'm sure they work great. Although their Nitro Slammers is the one's I'd go with, unless you plan on some competition driving. For the price of one of the racing shocks you can buy two Slammers. Just my two pennies...

I've also used Belltech Nitro 2's ever since I have dropped my truck wouldn't think about using any other shock.

[QUOTE=bankrpt;3839553]ok anybody know anything about the new bell-tech street performance series shocks?

I dropped my truck with 2" shackles and put the Belltech Street Performance 0-3" drop shocks on last year. The handling is great, way better than stock, and much better than the Edelbrock IAS shocks I had on my last truck. I'm planning on replacing my front shocks with the Belltechs as well.

I haven't rode in the truck personally yet, but a friend of mine installed some on his 2001 F150 that's been lowered 3/5 and he said he noticed a slight difference over the Nitro 2's. That said, he also said it wasn't enough for him to pay extra for them again. So I'm guessing it's got to do with your personal preference and how you like your truck to ride. He told me the Street shocks were too stiff for his liking, but like I said, I've yet to ride in the truck since he installed the Belltech Street performers so who knows how rough it's riding honestly.

Either way, I'm sure it's a solid product. Belltech makes quality stuff.
