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.

Popular Upgrades Best-selling leveling kit options include aluminum billet spacer leveling kits for Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, and RAM 1500, strut extension leveling kits for independent front suspension trucks that avoid disturbing the factory strut, and leveling kit and shock combos that replace the factory strut unit with a longer shock and spacer for proper spring travel and ride quality. Will a leveling kit affect my truck's ride quality? A properly installed spacer leveling kit adds minimal weight and does not dramatically change spring rate, so most drivers find ride quality is maintained or slightly improved due to the more level attitude.

Aftermarket suspension systems improve handling, ride quality, and ride height adjustment beyond what the factory suspension provides. From lowering springs and coilover kits for sport handling to lift kits and leveling kits for truck and SUV off-road capability, quality suspension components transform how a vehicle rides and handles. Popular Suspension Upgrades Popular suspension upgrades include coilover kits for adjustable ride height and damping, sport lowering springs for improved handling and reduced body roll, performance shock absorbers and strut assemblies, sway bar and end link upgrade kits, subframe brace kits, and complete suspension packages for lifted trucks and off-road SUVs.
