MAXRACING 2" Leveling Kit for Chevy/GMC 1500 (2007–2026) — Billet Aluminium, 2" Front Lift

MAXRACING 2" Leveling Kit lifts the front of compatible 2007–2026 Chevy and GMC 1500-series trucks for a balanced stance and added ground clearance.

This forged-aluminum leveling spacer is made to align the front ride height with the factory rear on many Chevrolet and GMC full-size 1500 trucks and SUVs. CNC-machined from billet aluminum and anodized black, it installs without disassembling struts and keeps the factory ride feel while providing room for larger tires. Read on for compatibility notes, installation highlights, and what to expect when you fit this kit to your vehicle.

Which vehicles and trims will this kit fit?

The MAXRACING kit is designed for a wide range of Chevy Silverado 1500, Avalanche, Suburban, Tahoe and GMC Sierra, Yukon, Yukon XL 1500 models from 2007 through 2026, but there are several important exceptions. It is not compatible with 2014–2018 Denali editions, 2007 Classic models, ZR2, TrailBoss, AT4, MagneRide-equipped systems, or certain 2019–2024 new-body-style 4WD variations.

• Fits models equipped with factory steel front lower control arms only.
• Not for use on denali, classic 2007, or MagneRide cars.
• Double-check your model year and trim before purchase.

How much lift and tire clearance can I expect?

The kit is marketed as a 2-inch leveling solution to even out front and rear ride height, but the physical spacer thickness measures about 1 inch—so the ride-height change is achieved through suspension geometry, not raw spacer thickness. It provides increased ground clearance and makes room for larger tires while maintaining OEM handling characteristics.

• Advertised front lift: 2 inches.
• Actual spacer thickness: approximately 1 inch.
• Recommended tire: up to 285/75 R17 for safe fitment.

What does installation involve and how long does it take?

Installation is straightforward and engineered for bolt-on convenience—no strut disassembly required. Typical install time is about 1.5 to 2 hours with standard tools; the kit works with OEM control arms and preserves factory ride quality when properly installed.

• Simple bolt-in procedure; no strut teardown.
• Estimated install time: 1.5–2 hours.
• Weight per kit: about 2.5 lbs; backspacing remains factory.

What are the build quality and material details?

MAXRACING manufactures the spacer from billet aluminum using CNC machining, then applies a black anodized finish to match factory suspension aesthetics and resist corrosion. The precision machining gives reliable fitment and long-term durability when used on specified steel-control-arm models.

• CNC-machined billet aluminum construction.
• Black anodized finish for corrosion resistance and factory look.
• Replaces superseded part numbers 1307A and 1308.

Who is this for? This MAXRACING leveling kit is aimed at Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Yukon and Suburban owners who want a level, more aggressive stance, modest extra ground clearance, and the ability to run larger tires without altering ride comfort. It’s ideal for owners with factory steel lower control arms who need a quick, reversible lift that installs in a couple of hours and retains OEM handling. If your truck is a Denali, a MagneRide model, a 2007 Classic, or a specialized off-road trim like ZR2 or AT4, this kit will not fit and you should seek a model-specific solution.
