CST 2001-2010 Silverado & Sierra 2500HD / 3500 6-8" Lift # CSK-G6-1

CST Performance Suspension 6-8" Lift Kit # CSK-G6-1. This CST 6 - 8" HD lift kit includes all necessary hardware to lift the vehicle 6 inches... however, if you wish to achieve 8" inches of total lift you must also purchase a pair of aftermarket torsion lift keys. The upper and lower control arms are dropped to help maintain the stock geometry. Dropping the upper arm also allows CST to keep the front track width as close as stock to possible. Other kit manufacturers like Fabtech, Rough Country, Rancho, ProComp and RCD all increase the front track width. The CST kit will even allow you to run stock wheels if you want! By retaining the factory front end width the fenders do a better job of covering the tires, preventing road debris from damaging your vehicles paint. At 6 inches of lift the CST kit has perfectly flat front axle shaft angles. This allows you to adjust ride height by an additional two inches without damaging the CV's. This CST feature allows HD owners to adjust vehicle height between 6 and 8 inches of lift. This is nice because you can custom tailor the lift height to your own preference. CST includes a 5" rear lift block and u-bolt kit to raise the rear. Rear spring packs are now available for customers that do not want to run a 5" block in the rear. Custom leaf packs are a great addition to the 1500HD and 2500HD trucks because they reduce axle wrap under acceleration and provide a smoother and more comfortable ride than the factory springs. Replacement rear springs packs can and do provide a huge improvement in ride quality over stock!

Additional Information:

Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD / 3500 Series 4wd Trucks equipped with the Allison Transmission in most cases will NOT need a replacement high-angle front driveshaft. All other transmission equipped 4wd 2500HD / 3500 Trucks will require a replacement Dual Cardan style High Angle Front driveshaft. The factory driveshaft will bind due to the CST 6-8" Lift height. The correct replacement front driveshaft is available for purchase using the selection boxes located above this item description. Wheel back space must not exceed 5.00" inches.

Shock Absorbers:

Shock absorbers are not included with this CSK-G6-1 Suspension Lift Kit. Shock absorbers are available for purchase using the selection boxes located above this item description. The most popular and least expensive single shock package we offer are the Bilstein 5100 Series shock absorbers. CST offers their own line of shocks that are designed specifically for use with their 6-8" Suspension Lift System. If you want to run the CST Dual Front Shock system we do offer this as an option. It requires the purchase of the CST Dual Shock Upper Control Arm and the CST Dual Shock Upper Hoop Mount Kit. Combine the CST Front Dual Shock Kit with set of CST Dirt Series 2.0 Reservoir Shocks and you've got a great looking combo that provides additional damping for increased off-road performance and reliability.
