MAXRACING 2.5" Leveling Lift Kit for Chevy/GMC 1500 (2007–2026) — Black CNC Aluminum Spacer, Bolt‑On Install

MAXRACING’s 2.5-inch front leveling lift kit raises the front of compatible Chevy/GMC 1500 trucks for a level, aggressive stance while keeping factory ride characteristics and a straightforward bolt-on install.

This CNC-machined aluminum spacer kit is built to align the front height of many 2007–2026 Chevy and GMC 1500 models (Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, Avalanche) with the rear, creating improved ground clearance and a more balanced appearance. The kit is anodized black for corrosion resistance and visual cohesion with factory suspension parts, and it is designed to install quickly without disassembling struts. Note compatibility exclusions include Denali trims (2014–2018), 2007 Classics, ZR2/TrailBoss/AT4/MagneRide variants, and certain 2019–2024 new-body 4WD models.

How much height will I gain and what does the 2.5" label mean?

The kit is marketed as a 2.5-inch leveling lift, which refers to how much the front end will be raised relative to the rear. The physical spacer thickness measures about 1.2 inches; the final ride height gain results from the geometry change after installation rather than spacer thickness alone.

• Approximate front lift: 2.5 inches vehicle-level change.
• Spacer thickness: ~1.2 inches (material dimension differs from ride height change).
• Result: increased ground clearance and a more level stance with the rear.

Will installation affect ride quality or require strut disassembly?

No major ride-quality changes are expected when used with compatible OEM steel lower control arms. The MAXRACING spacers are engineered to preserve factory handling characteristics while providing clearance and lift. Installation is designed to be fast and simple for experienced do-it-yourselfers or professional shops.

• No need to disassemble struts—bolt-on installation.
• Maintains factory ride feel when used with compatible stock components.
• Typical install time: 1.5–2 hours.

Which trucks and trims will this kit fit?

This lift kit fits many Chevy and GMC 1500 models built between 2007 and 2026, but some trims and model years are excluded. It is specifically intended for vehicles with factory steel front lower control arms; it will not fit some special trims and newer body-style 4WD variants.

• Compatible: many 2007–2026 Chevy/GMC 1500 trucks — Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, Avalanche.
• Not compatible: 2014–2018 Denali models, 2007 Classic models, ZR2/TrailBoss/AT4/MagneRide variants.
• Not compatible with some 2019–2024 new-body style 4WD models.

What tires and other specs should I consider with this kit?

The kit supports larger tire packages and maintains recommended clearances when paired with appropriate wheel backspacing. Weight and compatibility specs help you plan fitment and ensure safe installation.

• Recommended tire size example: 285/75 R17.
• Backspacing: factory (use original wheel specifications).
• Kit weight: approximately 2.5 lbs per spacer; supersedes part numbers 1307A and 1308.

Who this is for: Drivers who want a cleaner, more balanced look on their Chevy or GMC 1500-series truck without altering suspension geometry dramatically. Ideal for owners keeping OEM steel lower control arms who want a quick, durable, and reversible solution to level the front with the rear and gain modest ground clearance. If you own a Denali, a 2007 Classic, ZR2/TrailBoss/AT4/MagneRide-equipped truck, or certain 2019–2024 new-body 4WD models, this kit will not fit your vehicle—confirm fitment before purchase.
