Product Overview

 

The ReadyLIFT 7" Lift Kit w/Bilstein 5100 Series Shocks is engineered specifically for 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 2WD/4WD trucks seeking aggressive ride height, premium ride quality, and oversized tire clearance while maintaining factory drivability. These premium suspension systems combine heavy-duty geometry correction with Bilstein 5100 monotube shocks for improved suspension control and off-road capability.

Available for trucks equipped with factory forged steel, cast steel, aluminum, or stamped steel front suspension systems, the ReadyLIFT 7-inch kits feature boxed steel crossmembers, differential drop brackets, lifted steering geometry, tubular upper control arms on select applications, and heavy-duty rear lift blocks engineered specifically for the GM 1500 platform. ReadyLIFT’s innovative “clam-shell” lower strut extension design retains the factory struts, including compatible Front MagneRide systems, without requiring strut rotation.

Bilstein 5100 Series monotube shocks improve damping performance, ride stability, and suspension control during towing, hauling, highway driving, and off-road use. These systems support up to 35-inch tires on compatible wheel setups while preserving factory turning radius and maintaining OEM-style handling characteristics. Now Available at LEER!
