2024 Silverado HD ZR2 - Cognito 'Super Stock Kit'

[dirtracer455]

Hey all!

 

Does anyone have experience with or recommendations on the "Cognito Super Stock Kit" that was created for the ZR2 HD / AT4X HD models?

There aren't many reviews out there yet.. but this is a new product. My understanding is that it helps improve the droop angle / performance of the multimatic shocks that come with these models, but curious if the juice is worth the squeeze. There aren't many aftermarket options available for trucks currently.

 

Any info appreciated!

I have nothing but good things to say about past experiences with Cognito Motorsports.  That said, is what they are "fixing" really a problem?  Moreover, the bulk of the kit cost is the UCA's which doesn't improve anything, it just replaces the stock arms.  Are you having an issue that is pushing you in that direction?  Or just a habitual modifier?

Thanks for the reply. A couple things.. The ZR2 HD sits about 1.5in higher in the rear from factory. I did 3.5 cranks on the torsion bars to help get it closer to level (now it's about .5in higher). Even though 3 cranks is pretty minimal, it seems to have stiffened up the front end and it's a bit more harsh than I would like over bumps. Curious if this Cognito kit would help performance / premature wear with this in mind.

 

I have also heard (on a diff forum) that it may be better to just roll with the Cognito spacers and pitman/idler braces (sold separately) - to leave out the UCAs as they are not necessary.

 

Thx for any additional insight

$1k for a shock spacer. 
 

Cognito product description seems to have been written by a simpleton. “Torsion key clocking” doesn’t accurately describe the ZRX front lift. Also, they admit the ugly control arms are not needed. 
 

Recommend you jack the front of the truck to measure suspension travel. The 2 inch droop claim seems low.
