With the Supreme Suspensions 3.5 in. Front / 3 in. Rear Pro Lift, you’d make your Chevy Silverado 1500, which is already primed for superior off-road performance, even more formidable. The 3.5-inch clearance it provides on the front and the 3-inch clearance it provides at the back keeps the truck’s undercarriage further away from potential damage. And the added aggressive stance gives you a firmer ride that makes you feel like you are in greater control than ever before. All this is achieved without adversely affecting your factory ride quality and comfort.
This lift kit consists of parts that are C.N.C. machined from solid blocks of t6 billet aluminum. So, you can forget about it prematurely wearing out, compressing, or breaking. In addition, it is protected by hard anodized coating, thus keeping away rust.
Prepare for up to 4 hours for installing this suspension lift kit. You’ll need a car jack to lift the Silverado, as well as a host of home tools to remove parts and get to the suspension.
This kit is warrantied to be free from manufacturing and material defects for as long as you own the vehicle.
The Supreme Suspensions 3.5 in. Front / 3 in. Rear Pro Lift Kit fits all 2007-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 trucks. It is sold as a kit.
If you have a Silverado that is equipped with a Factory Lift Block, if you replace the Factory Lift Block with the Lift Block from Suspreme Suspensions, you will not achieve the full 3 inch lift for the rear. You will have more of a 2 inch lift in the rear. amtrucks.at/31...

I have a 2015 Silverado 1500, I have the Motofab 3” front and 2” rear and I fit 33” tires on stock 17” rims without rubbing at all.
How does it ride just curious I did a 3 2 level just seeing if your having any problems
Billy McCubbin I recently took it out, I’m getting a 6” lift kit, the ride ain’t bad, but my truck is 4x4 and the angles for my ball joints and cv joints are horrible, that’s why I only had it in for a short period of time before I lift it.
Did you consider new upper control arms instead of the full new lift?
I had the same 3” front 2” rear motofab lift that came with there UCA’s I also paired it with the diff drop kit from supreme suspensions in this video and a rear shock extenders just to be safe. I have 12,000 miles on this kit so far and it rides great. No issues and my front end geometry is excellent and aligned perfectly when I had the truck aligned after the lift was installed.
I think there needs 2 b a little more detail with regard to the transfer case bolts that need 2 b replaced with longer ones. How long are the current ones? How long should the replacements be? What grade of bolts (there are great differences in types)? We have a 2011 Silverado LT with Z71. You should provide a chart or even the bolts based on known factors and allow customers to order based on their OEM options installed.
what bolts did you end up needing? my kit arrives soon and id like to get the hardware ahead of time
You are definitely right!
I’m running just a 2” level in the front and clear 34s no problem no rub…. It’s all based on your rim offset
Would 3 inch in the front and 2 inch in the back be leveled? No rake? With a 2 inch rear do I really need shims and a diff drop?
Rear sits 3" higher than the front from the factory. If you lift the front 3" and the rear 2", I'd imagine the rear would still sit 2" higher than the front. So the truck would be slightly lifted but would still have a raked stance.
Probably just me, but doesn't Joe's finger tips look like they are in a perpetual state of pain?
Great video too
Looking to buy this lift… wondering if the front upper control arms will work with it? I know the angles will be off but will it be necessary to get control arms as well
Yes you need UCA'S if you dont well youll find out the hard way trust me! do your research before you purchase!
@@nevadaboy9769 do you have any recommendations for UCAs for this kit?
@@patricmason9091 the first commentator to this thread is correct, I'm going through it now. It destroyed my UCA on the driver's side, didn't know that until taking it apart for a full strut and shock replacement because I thought the strut had collapsed... Not the case, it sheared off the top casing of the UCA allowing way too much movement and it's scary... so waiting on a set of MotoFab Upper Control Arms for 2.50 to 3-Inch Lift to get here and install those. So if you haven't gotten this leveling kit yet, definitely budget in new UCA's to accommodate the very drastic angles your truck will be dealing with.
@@user-vd9cw6df9p what is the UCA? I just installed a 3 inch lift on my 2010 sierra (2 inch spacer on top the strut) will I need these other control arms?
@@GearScar upper control arm and yes to be on the safe side have them upgraded to a set that can balance out the lift.
Would you recommend upper control arms to correct some of the ball joint angle ??
Which one is that? Send link of it bc I wanna do it right for my truck and have no idea where to begin
The allen bolts for your spacer are supposed to go in through the bottom to where you use the factory nut on top. There not working on my truck
No they dont. Not according to the instructions
I have this. With 22x12 -44 on 33s 😎
Why didn't you have too trim anything for the dif drop on that one? I've seen others have too trim crossmemeber and cooling fins.
you call a stablizer like a tierod😮😮😮
Can the diff drop kit be installed after all wheels are on the ground? I'll be working with a floor jack and jack stands. I don't fell like working under the truck like that.
What was the stock height of this truck before and is this truck level after the kit was installed
Can y'all do a review on the previous generation (02-06) GM trucks with the level kit?
If i have a 2007 chevy silverado 2wd i dont need the diff drop right? And do i need any spacers to run stock wheels?
Lol there is no diff to drop 🤷🏻♂️
No the diff drop is only for 4wd vehicles to drop your front diff down
I plan on doing the exact same lift but I didn't know there was a differential drop what was the spacers you used and the bolts you used to do that drop and what is the purpose of doing that part of the lift
Do a new video for the 2019 and newer 3" Superlift with King shocks.
NICE VIDEO !! ..Also I have a question. has any one had any problems with their power steering light coming on after lifting and if so what's the fix if any thank!!!!
What are the spacers for? And is it needed?
The kit you have linked does not appear to have a diff drop included in the picture or anywhere in the description.
That's what I'm trying to figure out as well
Supreme sells them seperately. they have some great spacers for 2-4" lifts.
The one I bought did have them either. Are they a must or can I go without?
he says tie rod when he's working on the sway bar links lol.and i bought the same kit and it says to use original bolts to reinstall the struts not put the Allen bolts threw the top lol.and you should buy new upper control arms for a 2 to 3 1/2 inch lift because your original one are bottom out .they must for get to tell you all that he didn't use the washers or lock washers on the top of the strut. and i have a z71 and didn't need longer bolts the one's they sent i actually had to put two washers on the bolt for the top and two on the bottom of the diff because they were not threaded enough in my opinion this lift if junk i would buy it again .and the rear blocks i had to grind the stud down a little bit also because it was hitting the axle on both sides or it wouldn't lay flat
Yea he has no idea what he is doing. The other video on the same shows the Allen bolts go through the spacer and you use the original nuts on the Allen bolts. Not running the bolt through the bracket into the spacer. If he can do it anyone can
I would like to know how to convert Chevy silverado 1500 LS Classic 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive and hows to put one. Please help. Thank you
With enough money you can turn a two-wheel drive setup into a four-wheel drive, but for the same amount of time and money you may be better off just buying a new four-wheel drive truck. 4WD trucks have different front suspension, have a different front axle, a transfer case, front driveshaft, some sort of shifter to engage the 4WD system, and probably more things that I missed. Hope this helps! -Zach
Not worth transferring it over! adding a transfer case you will need a custom rear drive shaft and a complete new front end set up its will cost more than the truck is worth! Its a nightmare i have seen it done! prepare for a 12-15k dollar set up if you are going with new parts and that is minimum! lots of fabrication as well! good luck!
For the Z71 rear shocks will be okay with the 3 inch block in the back? In the video it had no problem
Is it true as the website states that this kit fits on the AWD Denali models 08-13?
I have a 08 denali awd and am having a terribly hard time finding a kit specifically for that
Can you swap sides on the struts? Left to right and right to left?
Yes
Is there 2 ways to install those 8mm allen fasteners ive seen it get fastened from the bottom of the spacer
I put 3" spacer on my 2012 gmc it didn't come with diff. Or bottom spacer and when I turn my steering to lock my truck dips down a inch or 2. Any suggestions plz
So when the kit was installed, was the truck level with the rear or was it still leaning down in the front a little bit?
It was sitting much more level after the install, but the truck still did have a little bit of forward rake to it. Though this one also has that large brush guard hanging, which adds quite a bit of weight way out in front. So if your truck doesn't have that extra weight out front, it will likely sit a bit more level than what you're seeing here.

Why do some kits only have two spacers for the front differential drop and not four?
Not sure if its just a problem im having or what. but something that wasn't mentioned was the bracket on the bottom of the strut where the bolts go through, its at a slight angle ( im assuming to compensate for the strut just normally sitting at a slight angle. But when I put the spacer on I had to turn the strut around to get the new bolt holes to line up. But now that bottom part is at and angle with the top of the angle pointing towards me. So the holes aren't lining up for the bolts to go through all of it. And I don't want to hammer a bolt through and mess up the threads. Is this a common thing or is it just me not doing it in the right order making things not line up right?
I have that issue also. But my spacer didn't line up with the mounting holes where the strut use to be bolted straight to. I can't figure it out
@@gotmurica6225 I figured it out shortly after I commented this. Try mounting the bottom of the strut on first. Get those two bolts in and get the nuts on hand tight. Then you'll have to push the top of the strut into its bracket It goes in. Make sure the lower control arm is loose so you can push the whole strut up and down when trying to get the top part in. That's what I did and it helped me. Hopefully that works for you
Thanks. I saw another video just now that showed the proper way to I stall this. Not this vague install video. Guy said same thing you did
Also not pictured here is the actual “cutoff wheel”
For tahoe 2007 to 2014 what I need to lift front 3.5 nd rear 3, I could put only spacers
He looks like a Jacob
Does the FORGED UCA PAIR
2.5-3.5 INCH LIFT | CHEVY/GMC 1500 TRUCK & SUV (07-16) UCA work on this kit?
Yeah. They will
Supreme suspension doesn’t even want to answer me! I asked if this kit levels out the truck and they cut off. Sketchy brand??
3.5" in the front and 3 inches in the rear will definitely help level out your truck. But the 3 inches in the rear will keep a *littleeeeee bit* of the factory rake. If you want NO RAKE AT ALL, you should look into a 3.5 front and 1 or 2 inch rear lift instead. -Zach
Is this for a 4WD assembly?
U have video for tahoe 2007 to 2014 lift
Does anyone know if still need to drop the diferential, with 3 inch front 3 inch rear 2014 z71 Silverado???
Thanks
Is the diff drop kit necessary? Can in install at a later date.
Anything over 3 inches of lift will need a diff drop. Would not recommend leaving it for a later date.
What rims are on this truck and Brush guard?
3.5 front 3 rear? Does that level it out or will that have a slight tip up?
I just did my nephews 2017 chevy 1500 with a 3" front and a 2" rear it was perfect!!
it will definitely be nosediving, if you want it to sit level go with 1 or 2 inch rear blocks
What size bolts do I need for the diff drop on a 2017 Z71?
120 mm long and 18 mm is what I used. I had to find out the hard way lol
Can you run the stock shocks in the rear with the 3 inch block?
No, the max amount of stretch those shocks can take is 1 inch. Just get the ready lift, shock extenders. They support up to 2-4 inches of lift for the rear shock. They are only $50 off of amazon or something like that.
How much lift on front can stock OEM shock height?
You don’t even show what spacer goes where
Why would you even put this on a truck the suspension angles will be extreme and will be replacing ball joints every year.. spend the extra 500 bucks and get a real lift
Still has that ugly rake. Gross.
