The OME engineers initial evaluation of the new Chevrolet Colorado revealed a very firm, controlled ride when configured in the OE trim. This provided the opportunity to explore tuning for comfort and control in various loading scenarios.
For optimal ride performance, a complete suspension system is recommended. However, there is an opportunity to fit front coils, struts, and rear shock absorbers as a leveling kit. This configuration can be customized to accomodate a winch and bumper combination while lifting or leveling the front suspension height. A leveling kit will maintain the rear height while improving ride quality through the fitment of OME struts and shocks. Factory geometry allows for a 1" lift and still maintains an adequate level of droop.
The newly-tuned strut resulted in a compliant yet controlled ride with particular improvement in isolation of small inputs and road texture as well as larger inputs from various speed bump profiles, pot holes and road features.
