Features to know about

Stay Level and Confident Under Load: 2-1/2" Front and 2" Rear Lift

When gear starts piling on, keeping your suspension even makes all the difference. This lift kit adds 2-1/2" up front and 2" in the rear, tuned to handle 330 lbs at the front and 440 lbs at the rear. With matched coils that balance weight from bumpers, winches, drawers, or rooftop tents, the setup stays level and steady even when fully packed. The result is a truck that feels composed under load instead of squatting or wandering through corners.

Handle Rough Terrain Without Fade: MT64 Monotube Performance

Long trips and rough trails can heat up shocks fast. The MT64 struts and shocks use a large 2-3/4" aluminum body to keep things cool and resist fade. That means consistent damping, smoother control over chatter, and dependable ride quality mile after mile. The monotube design keeps performance steady whether you’re crawling slow or cruising fast over uneven terrain.

Dial In the Ride Height You Want: 6-Position Spring Seat Adjustment

Every build carries weight a little differently, so the front struts include a 6-position spring seat to fine-tune ride height for your setup. Instead of chasing an arbitrary lift target, these coils are matched to actual load. You get the stance you want with suspension that works the way it should—level, responsive, and stable across different configurations.

Keep Steering Sharp After a Lift: Upper Control Arms Maintain Geometry

Lifting changes suspension angles, which can throw off steering feel and cause extra wear. The included upper control arms restore proper geometry so the truck tracks straight and responds predictably. Forged arms with grease-free bushings and high-strength ball joints deliver solid handling with less maintenance and more even tire wear on and off the road.

Built Strong for Real Use: Durable, Low-Maintenance Design

From the monotube MT64 shocks to the forged control arms, every component is designed for long-term reliability. The kit bolts into OE mounts for a clean fit with no cutting or guesswork required. Once installed, it delivers smooth ride quality, consistent handling, and dependable performance built to take on loaded adventures without constant upkeep.
