This kit addresses the factory rake by raising the front axle 1.25 inches, creating room for up to 265\/65R17 tires without fender modifications and boosting ground clearance for everyday driving and light off-road use. Drivers report sharper cornering response and reduced nose dive during braking, thanks to the even weight distribution it provides. Built from durable billet aluminum spacers that resist corrosion and wear, this setup delivers reliable results mile after mile, backed by Tuff Country's limited lifetime warranty and made entirely in the USA. For Canyon owners seeking straightforward enhancement to aesthetics and capability, the 12918 stands out with its bolt-on design that installs in under two hours using basic tools, no strut disassembly or welding needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVehicle Fitment Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eYears\u003c\/b\u003e: 2015-2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMake\u003c\/b\u003e: GMC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel\u003c\/b\u003e: Canyon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/b\u003e: 2WD and 4x4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eExclusions\u003c\/b\u003e: ZR2 models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlacement\u003c\/b\u003e: Front only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompatibility Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Designed for stock suspension; pairs with factory struts.

Key steps include removing wheels and struts, positioning the spacers above the coils, and torquing hardware to specs (e.g., strut nuts at 30 ft-lbs, lower control arm bolts at 125 ft-lbs). Full alignment is recommended post-install, and retorque after 100 miles.
