KellTrac Viking Rear Shocks, Race, Pair (KTI-B315ST) - 2020-2026 Ford Explorer ST
Take rear suspension control to the next level on your high-powered 2020-2026 Ford Explorer ST with the KellTrac Viking Race Series Rear Shocks. Developed specifically for max-effort and record-focused Explorer ST builds, these shocks build upon the proven Viking Double Adjustable platform with KellTrac-specific specifications, precision billet aluminum adapters, and a performance-focused bearing lower mount. The result is a highly adjustable rear shock package engineered to control aggressive launches, manage substantial horsepower, and give serious racers the suspension tuning capability needed to maximize traction.
The Race Series sits at the top of KellTrac's Explorer ST shock lineup, above the Street and Street/Strip versions. Easy-to-access adjustment knobs allow compression and rebound characteristics to be dialed in for vehicle setup, track conditions, handling, and straight-line performance. The design retains the factory shock mounting locations and factory dust boots while adding OEM-style bump stops and approximately 2 inches of additional available compression stroke. Combined with shock valving capable of managing applications producing up to approximately 1,000 horsepower, this package is built for Explorer ST owners demanding maximum rear suspension performance and adjustability.
