Can I pick up my order or have it installed at your shop?

Absolutely. We offer local pickup on most products and full professional installation at our shop in Washington, MO. Whether you just want to grab your parts or have our techs handle the install, we’ve got you covered. Give us a quick call at 636-429-7020 or message us to schedule a visit — we’ll make sure the parts are ready when you arrive.

How do I know if this part fits my vehicle?

Unsure if it’ll fit? No problem — that’s what we’re here for. Send us your vehicle’s year, make, and model, and we’ll verify fitment before you order. We can also point you toward compatible upgrades or supporting parts if needed.

What if I need to return a product or it’s defective?

Most unused items can be returned within 30 days in their original packaging. Some products are covered by a manufacturer’s warranty as well. If something arrives damaged or doesn’t meet your expectations, just let us know — we’ll help you get it replaced, refunded, or repaired. (Tracking updates are also emailed automatically once your order ships.)

What's the lead time on custom or fabricated parts?

Many of our parts are built to order — especially fabricated or performance components. These can take additional time to produce before shipping. Lead times vary by manufacturer and demand, but we’ll always keep you updated along the way. If you’re working on a tight schedule, reach out before ordering at 636-429-7020 and we’ll confirm current availability or estimated ship dates.

Description

Upgrade your 1973-1987 Chevy/GMC truck or 1973-1991 SUV 4WD with BDS NX2 Nitro Series rear shocks for high-end performance at an affordable price. BDS uses a pressurized nitrogen-charged twin-tube design with 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving for lightning-fast dampening adaptive to whatever terrain you traverse on- or off-road.

The 2-inch bodied shocks use a large 1-3/8-inch fluon-banded piston self-lubricating seals and a 14mm hardened chrome shaft to help resist rock chips and corrosion. Polyurethane bushings and metal sleeves are included to make swapping over your shocks a breeze.

Offered in various stem and eyelet bushing configurations for custom applications and available to work with all current BDS lift kits. Finished in a durable metallic silver paint with NX2 decals. Designed to work with a 4 to 8-inch lift kit.
