The engineers at Rancho have designed a new 3-inch suspension system that offers a straightforward installation and aggressive look. This kit is specifically designed to add a 3-inch front-end lift to any Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra 1500 truck that has 33.5 x 11.50-inch tires. This complete suspension lift kit includes Rancho-designed upper control arms and bushings, Rancho RS9000™ XL Level It Struts and Rear Shocks, rear blocks, U-bolts, bump stop spacers, and brackets. This kit is designed to work with OEM springs and top mounting components and maintains factory alignment specifications.

The adjustable damping enhances ride characteristics by counteracting the additional unsprung mass inherent in larger tire and wheel combinations. The sway bar spacers correct end link angles for roll and sway control of the truck. Rancho rear blocks are included to raise the rear an additional 1.5 inches to level out the entire truck. This kit is quick and easy to install with the 100% bolt-on design.
