Overview

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2025–2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 (4WD) is designed to improve stance, performance, and capability. The kit provides clearance for up to 35-inch tires (Chevrolet) or 33-inch tires (GMC). Up front, it includes FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Series remote reservoir coil-over shocks and heavy duty tubular upper control arms for increased strength. In the rear, fabricated steel lift blocks and longer U-bolts raise the vehicle, paired with a complementary set of rear shocks for a smooth ride.

The FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coil-overs are tuned and ready to install out of the box. Built with a 2.5-inch diameter body, these shocks include a remote reservoir for additional fluid capacity to keep shocks running cool under demanding conditions. The DSC (Dual Speed Compression) adjuster provides 10 separate low-speed and 12 high-speed compression levels with a simple twist of either adjuster knob, delivering precise tuning for any terrain. The reservoir features a black anodized aluminum finish for increased cooling efficiency.

The BDS HD upper control arms use 1.5-inch OD x .120-wall tubular construction with an indexed ball joint cup to correct ball joint positioning, allowing additional down travel and camber adjustment. Durometer-specific rubber bushings at the frame mounting ends provide maintenance-free operation, while greaseable ball joints at the outer end ensure smooth, quiet operation and superior durability. Arms are finished in a durable black powder coat with a billet aluminum dust cap.
