The kit is made from 6061-T6 forged aircraft aluminum with CNC machining and high-strength hardware, and it ships with components to adapt both front struts and rear multi-leaf spring setups so you keep most factory parts functioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich Silverado and Sierra models will this lift kit fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit fits most 2007–2018 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 trucks in 2WD and 4WD, plus many 2019–2024 Silverado\/Sierra 1500 2WD models.

One is a front strut spacer and the other is a lower strut spacer; together they re-position suspension mounting points to net 3.5 inches of lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFront spacer nominal thickness: 1.4\"; lower strut spacer: 0.8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCombined effect uses suspension geometry to reach a 3.5\" lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned to work with factory-style struts and maintain safe ride characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat changes occur at the rear when installing the 3\" lift block?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRear multi-leaf spring trucks typically have a 1\" factory lift block; swapping it for the included 3\" block produces a true 2\" rear increase. That 1.5\" front-to-rear difference levels the truck’s original rake and gives a balanced, even stance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFactory 1\" rear block replaced by included 3\" block yields a 2\" net rear lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBalances front 3.5\" with rear 2\" for an even appearance and stance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes new u-bolts sized for the taller block to maintain proper clamping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill I need new shocks or other parts after installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes rear shock extensions designed to work with OEM factory shocks so you can often retain the original absorbers. These extensions are not compatible with aftermarket or non-OEM shocks, and alignment or upgraded control arms are typically recommended after a lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2–4\" rear shock extensions included and compatible only with factory OEM shocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePreserves original shock function when extension length is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuggested: alignment and upper control arms sized for 2–4\" lifts for optimal geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho this kit is for: Owners of Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 who want a factory-looking, leveled stance without replacing all suspension components. This kit suits daily drivers and light-duty trucks that keep OEM shocks and value precision-machined aluminum parts and high-strength hardware. If your truck is a ZR2, TrailBoss, Denali with MagneRide, or a 2007 \"Classic,\" choose a model-specific alternative. Plan for a professional installation, wheel alignment, and optional upgraded control arms for best results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will this kit work with MagneRide or Denali models?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. This kit is not compatible with MagneRide or Denali models from 2014–2018.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do I need new shocks after installing this lift?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Not usually if you keep OEM shocks; the included shock extensions allow factory shocks to function correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"FlexHitch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55171071443287,"sku":"B0FC2BW3Y2","price":206.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1524\/7191\/files\/flexhitch-front-strut-spacer-front-view.jpg?v=1790437562","url":"https:\/\/britishgarage.co.uk\/products\/flexhitch-3-5-front-3-rear-lift-kit-for-2007-2018-silverado-1500-sierra-1500-6061-t6-aluminum-oem-shock-compatible","provider":"British Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
