2014+ Suspension Lifts


Recommended Posts

I've seen your truck when going thru this thread, looks great. It is a quality kit, and like the 4" kit  I had on my 2013 Sierra doesn't increase track width..
I bought the Stage 1 kit back in July when I bought my 2018. I was planning to install it this Winter when my work season slows down. I'm still not 100% I will install it or sell it. 
Do you have the Fox 2.0's and have them at lowest setting  ? I have the Fox 2.0'S on my truck now and if I install the CST kit I'll probably sell them and get the 4 1/2" CST coilovers to eliminate the spacer. I never cared for that spacer on my 4" CST kit I had on my 2013 Sierra.  

I have the fox 2.0’s not exactly sure what they are set too. Don’t think they are the same as bilstein to adjust like that. Sorry about that

Where’s the best dea on the CST 4.5 stage one kit ? I just bought a 2018 Silverado and think I wanna go that route due to not increasing track width.

Just about done, went ahead and started fresh with new Bilstein 5100’s again up front just for experimental purposes and new extended 5100’s in the rear for the CST 3” block. Talk about build in progress. Couldn’t get away from meetings today, picking it up mañana!

Cant wait to see it. Strongly considering this lift and squeezing some 35s. Love that it doesn't increase track width

I bought mine from Performance Lifts. mainly because I bought my last lift there for my 2013 and they have great customer support. New Level motorsports has it a little cheaper then Performance, I think they are around $1650. for the stage 1 kit.

I’ll post a bunch of pics once it’s all cleaned up and can compare the before shot

To the new shot....

Pic coming soon [emoji13]

I’m also looking at keeping the same Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285/60/20’s (33.7’s) but may go up to the 285/65/20’s cause I want to have less drag from the tires width wise but a bit more height for a softer ride, I don’t know [emoji1745]‍[emoji3603]

The Fox 2.0's adjust with a spanner wrench, mine are at 2" because I was just leveling my truck when I installed them. Yours most likely are at "0" otherwise you would have gained an extra two inches of height over the 4 1/2" CST spacer.

One thing is for certain, (and I know lifts, had many of them) it seems to be a much heavier duty and very thick steel, highest quality paint job I’ve ever seen from any manufacturers suspension components. Very impressed!

That’s not including rear shocks for the 3”-5” lifted applications.

Ok, how’s the ride quality of your Kings, stiffer, mushy?

Best money I ever spent on a suspension. Feels like a Cadillac. Both front and rear are adjustable so I can make it stiff or mushy. I’m set in the middle with no complaints.

I’ve heard great things about King suspension. First I was looking Fox, then did the CST lift so naturally just about jumped on those but I’ve heard such great things about King suspension and now you, lol. I’m interested to know which stock# for the 4.5” lift would work as well as the rear which currently running 3” blocks, looking at going 4” just cause it’s perfectly level but I like a slight rake up front. Do you know your model #’s?

Just decided to go with CST full adjustable coil overs. Their amazing quality is out of this world but 100% made in The USA [emoji6]and will only compliment my awesome CST lift [emoji631] Thanks for the input!
