Bilstein BGT Series Shock Absorber - Clear Anodized

 

The Bilstein BGT Series Shock Absorber is built for customers running high-load oval-track platforms that need a serious threaded-body motorsports damper. BGT stands for Big Gas Threaded, and the design is aimed at Late Models, Super Late Models, Sprint Cars, Dirt Late Models, and Big Block Modifieds. The clear anodized finish gives the aluminum body a clean race-hardware appearance while supporting spring height adjustment needs.

A 46mm aluminum monotube body helps the shock deliver consistent, fade-resistant damping through repeated suspension cycles. The large 60mm nitrogen compartment reduces rod pressure and helps keep nitrogen pressure more consistent as temperatures change. That can be especially valuable for customers chasing predictable feel over a full race run.

The threaded body uses coarse threads for strength and practical coil spring height adjustment. Customers can choose 7 inch or 9 inch oval-track versions, giving builders options for different chassis packages and suspension travel targets. Eye 12.7mm mounts at both ends keep the installation layout familiar for motorsports applications.

The BGT Series is designed for race teams that need more than a simple smooth-body shock. Its aluminum construction, large gas chamber, and threaded body help customers manage ride height, suspension response, and heat consistency. The shock is also intended to support rebuild and revalve work, making it relevant for customers who tune throughout the season.

This damper is best chosen after measuring ride height, spring package, compressed length, and extended length. The 7 inch and 9 inch versions give customers a starting point, but the final choice should match chassis geometry and setup rules. When properly matched, the BGT Series supports confident tuning in demanding oval-track use.

Whether customers are upgrading for late model racing, sprint car setup, or high-load oval-track control, the BGT Series Shock Absorber delivers a tunable aluminum monotube package. Now Available at LEER!
