Higher Ground Clearance. Gearing your truck up with this MotoFab 3-Inch Front/2-Inch Rear Leveling Kit with Upper Control Arms will let it achieve a higher ground clearance. Specifically, this leveling kit raises your truck’s front end by 3 inches while its rear gets an extra 2-inch lift. With the increased gap between your vehicle’s chassis and the ground, it will be much easier for you to navigate the rugged trails.
Upper Control Arms. Leveling your truck can affect its normal ball joint angles. But with this kit’s upper control arms, you won’t be experiencing this problem. These components help correct your lifted vehicle’s ball joint angles, enabling you to maintain your truck’s stock ride quality. What’s more, these control arms are made from a 1.25-inch DOM billet aluminum tubing for a stronger build.
Rear Lift Blocks. This leveling kit is equipped with fabricated rear lift blocks. Fabricated types are often stronger than cast iron blocks as well as solid aluminum blocks. Furthermore, these blocks are paired with longer U-bolts, allowing them to provide more reliable support.
Billet Aluminum Spacers. To provide the lift your truck needs, this kit also includes CNC-machined billet aluminum spacers that are applied with a textured black powder coat finish. With this high-strength build, the spacers can lift your vehicle without over-compressing or breaking.
Direct Bolt-On Installation. This leveling kit requires moderate to high-level mechanical skills to ensure proper installation. But for your convenience, its components are built with a bolt-on design, so you can directly mount each piece to your truck’s existing points.
Limited Lifetime Warranty. For your peace of mind, this leveling kit includes a limited lifetime warranty. For the full warranty information, you may visit the official MotoFab website.
Application. This MotoFab 3-Inch Front/2-Inch Rear Leveling Kit with Upper Control Arms is created to fit 2019-2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models, excluding Trail Boss vehicles.

This video is helpful overall but some crucial points missed by jump cut editing. Just installed this on a 2018 GMC Sierra (yes it fits). As noted in another comment, we had the plastic caps on top of the shock mount bolts. Beefy flathead screwdriver does the job and you can't remount them anyway after you put the spacer on - so no worries if you accidentally break the plastic. If you don't have a brand new shock like this video, remove the aluminum clips and intentionally bend a 10.9 bolt a bit to go through the bottom shock mount and shock. 10.9 nut and send it with an impact - it'll pull it into position. The shock has to be back in the vehicle with the top mount nuts put on - don't try this out of the vehicle. Reattach the aluminum clip on the other side and secure with the factory bolt. Remove the nut and bent bolt on the other side and replace clip and bolt. Done. I assure you this is the way to go. Tried following the video and spent almost 4 hours just trying to clock it 180 like in the video. Did the other side the way I described above and took 30 minutes total. Also, we bent grade 8 bolts trying to follow the video... that bushing will not want to go quietly. Paint pen to mark the original locations to get caster and camber somewhat close when reinstalling the upper control arm. For the rear end, for anyone who doesn't have a lift and pole jacks, make sure you undo the bracket holding the brake lines across the rear diff. Additionally, pull the tabs holding the speed sensors to the body so you don't suspend the rear end by these lines. A second jack under the u joint can help correct pinion angle as the rear end goes up and down as it'll want to roll forward on you. On that note, chock the front wheels. Take your time with this, it's not terrible but also not sure it's a 2/3 wrenches either without a lift.

Great video, however y'all missed a few things and a few that might not work for everyone else... First of all, on the 2020 Silverado the top shock bolts have plastic wire harnesses attached to them that need to be manipulated so you can fight the top 18mm nuts. Second, when relocking the shock 180 degrees, I would not use the bolts as they will bend depending upon the stubbornness of your shock. Instead. Remove the bolts and nut clips then insert the shock mount horizontally in the vise and reclock that way. Much safer from damaging vital hardware. Third, be careful not to let the weight of the lower control arm and rotor rest free as IT WILL pull loose the cv axle causing some extra difficulties when reinstalling. Lastly, I think it would be extremely helpful for y'all to mention what the torque specs are for all hardware when reinstalling.

I was surprised he just had it all hanging on the CV axle there.

Rotating the bushing is nothing like they have shown. Be super careful, there is so much tension on that bushing. Mine spring back and wacked me in the head. 8 stitches and a couple Tylenol later and its all done.

What about the cv joints Angle. Do I need to upgrade to the trailboss CV joints? To correct my geometry.

@LTZ_Z71 Месяц назад

This kit is probably a good deal for a pavement queen but the problem with the newer Silverados is the springs and shocks are a little too soft for any real off-road use (I know because I own a 2024 Silverado Z71 LTZ). This does not address that and is why it's considerably cheaper than a real coil over lift.

@jesusleon5227 22 дня назад

Does it matter if the truck is 2wd or 4wd when picking a lift for my truck ?

@luciovasquez3661 5 месяцев назад

what are torque spec for the upper control arms?

@DaimlerMiller-kx2qs 3 месяца назад

How come you guys didn’t reuse the factory lower strut bolts? Why didn’t you include those in this $500 kit? That’s crazy

@georger9998 9 месяцев назад

These trucks come with 33” tires from the factory. You should be able to run 35” tires with this lift

@voltron2127 Месяц назад

Where do I find the factory torque spec?

@inezdominguez98 3 месяца назад

I have a 2014 Chevy Silverado with a 3 inch front leveling kit and I wanna replace the front shocks do I buy stock height shocks?

@americantrucks 3 месяца назад

Yes - you would buy stock heigh shocks if you want to keep using the front strut spacers that came in this kit. You could purchase a set of lifted front coilvers from Fox, Bilstein, Eiback, etc if you wanted to get rid of those spacers though and get some better performance. -Zach

wow chevy , the amount of rust on the brand new truck is alarming

@anthony2558 5 месяцев назад

I got 2023 18K miles and every 90* edge of the frame is covered in surface rust

@shanestone100 Год назад

This is a 1 inch block y’all installed, which measures 2” actually. I just put them on my truck. The 2” block measures a true 3”. You installed the 1” block in the video. Not the 2”

@DaimlerMiller-kx2qs 3 месяца назад

Those bottom strut bolts NEVER bolt back in that easily
