"I have used other brands of air suspension components before I discovered RideTech/Air Ride, and after the customer service, instruction clarity and sanctification I have now, I will never use another companies stuff again. "

"Upgrading to a Ridetech suspension has to be the best thing I've done to improve the drivability of my 55 since I started my frame off restoration 7 years ago. It was well worth my time and investment. So thanks, I really appreciate all of you at Ridetech, you've got a fantastic product."

– Leon Ellison, 08/28/2012

"We build our cars to drive, handle and perform. You can’t beat RideTech ride quality and engineering."

– Curt Ukasik, Pro Rides, 09/23/2011

"Overall experience was awesome. I ordered my parts on Friday and they were at the depot the following Friday. I live in Canada so I thought that was supper quick. All my questions were answered and everything I ordered came the way I wanted it. The packaging was exceptional and nothing was damaged.

"

"Just installed this kit on my 2009 Ram and I can say it is worth every penny and more, To have an awsome ride from a lowered truck on 24s is unheard-of UNTIL NOW.... This kit rides very good and when you park and let the air out give's the 2009 Ram a whole new look.... WAY TO GO RIDETECH!!!! Look for my review on www.DodgeForum.com, the truck is call Grave Robber."

Why? From RideTech president Bret Voelkel: "In partnering with the engineers at Fox, we’ve been able to see dramatic improvements in the handling performance, ride quality and durability of our entire shock line.

After your shock purchase from RideTech or a RideTech dealer you must register your purchase at www.ridetech.com/shockwarranty within 30 days
If your RideTech fails to perform properly within the next 1,000,001 miles, RideTech will repair that shock free of charge. The only exclusion is obvious external damage [accident, abrasion, etc.]
