Smoother Highways & Tougher Trails: The BTR Guide to Suspension Upgrades.
Are you fighting the steering wheel every time you hit a washboard road? Does your truck feel stiff and unforgiving on the highway? At BTR Outfitters, we believe your truck should handle exactly the way you need it to, whether you are rock crawling on the weekend or commuting down the highway on Monday morning.
As the premier destination for truck accessories and upfits just outside of Abilene, Texas, we don’t just sell parts; we solve problems.
It All Starts with Communication
The biggest mistake truck owners make is buying a suspension kit off the internet without considering how they actually use their vehicle. At BTR Outfitters, our process begins with a conversation. We need to identify what you want out of your truck and where you are taking it.
If you do more rock crawling, you don’t necessarily need a hyper-responsive shock. However, if you are driving down rough, washboard roads at a higher rate of speed, a faster response time is essential for maintaining control.
We pride ourselves on our results. We have actually taken a stock Chevy Silverado and tuned the suspension to make it ride better than a customer’s Ford Raptor. That is the power of getting the right setup tailored to your specific needs!
Top Suspension Brands We Trust

We carry a variety of brands to suit every budget and performance requirement. Here are the three brands we sell the most of at BTR Outfitters:
1. Fox Racing: The Best Overall If you are looking for the gold standard in performance, Fox Racing is our top pick. They offer the smoothest ride and the quickest response time on the market. Whether you are hitting high-speed trails or just want a cloud-like feel on the pavement, Fox delivers superior damping technology.
2. Bilstein: The Best Factory Upgrade Not everyone is looking to jump jumps or climb boulders. Sometimes, you just want a better daily drive. Bilstein is our go-to choice for the best factory upgrade.

Client Success Story: We recently had a customer purchase a brand-new truck, but he wasn't happy with the stiffness. He just wanted a softer ride for highway driving. We installed a set of Bilsteins, and it met exactly what he was looking for—improving comfort without sacrificing stability.
3. Rough Country: Best Budget-Friendly and Durable Upgrading your truck shouldn't always break the bank. Rough Country offers the best balance of durability and affordability.
