Tuff Country 2 Inch Front Leveling Kit for 2011-2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 4x4 and 2WD
Achieve a balanced stance on your heavy-duty truck with the Tuff Country 12004 2-inch front leveling kit, designed specifically for the demands of daily driving and light off-road use. This torsion bar key kit reindexes the factory torsion bars to raise the front end by exactly 2 inches, eliminating the stock rake for a level ride height that enhances stability and opens clearance for up to 31x10.50-inch tires.
Built from forged high-strength steel, it delivers consistent performance under load, maintaining factory ride quality without the need to over-torque the torsion bars a common issue with lesser kits that can lead to premature wear.
Truck owners rely on this kit for its straightforward bolt-on design that installs in under an hour, preserving suspension geometry and avoiding the harsher ride associated with aggressive adjustments.
As the original innovator of leveling kits with over 25 years of engineering expertise, Tuff Country ensures this setup provides reliable front-end lift that integrates seamlessly with your Silverado's OEM components, backed by a limited lifetime warranty against defects.
Key Benefits for Your Chevy Silverado 3500
- Level Ride and Improved Handling: Raises the front to match the rear, reducing nose dive during braking and body roll in corners for a more planted feel on highways and trails.
- Tire Clearance Upgrade: Fits tires up to 31x10.50 inches without rubbing, giving your truck a wider stance and better ground clearance for occasional off-pavement adventures.
