CST Suspension 11-19 Chevy GMC 2500HD 3500HD 4 to 6 Inch Stage 8 Suspension System Ball Joint Upper Control Arm CSK-G18-8BJ

This kit is designed specifically for the 2500HD and 3500HD model trucks.

This adjustable 4 to 6 inch S.T.L. (Stock Torsion Location) High Clearance design for the 11-19 Chevy GMC 2500HD 3500HD trucks provides the “leveled look” without sacrificing the ride quality or function.

We have combined our experience in off road racing with trophy truck quality engineering to ensure that your suspension will have increased strength, performance, overall build integrity and perform better than stock. Throughout the initial design and R&D process we made sure to retain the factory O.E. suspension geometry and design attributes!

This adjustable kit includes gusseted high clearance cross-members with a full size differential skid plate, cast-iron / CNC machined front steering knuckles, differential drop brackets, heavy duty bump stop brackets, extended sway bar end links, brake line drop brackets, all necessary install hardware, and O.E. front shock extensions. Steering stabilizer brackets are built into the kit and our stabilizer shock kit can be purchased as an optional upgrade. For the rear the 4-6″ kit includes BILLET 1″ lift blocks and heavy duty, zinc-plated u-bolts.

No cutting of the front differential is required or welding of any kind to install this kit. Retaining the factory front wheel track width allows this kit to work perfectly with all of the trucks stability assist features including the GM StabiliTrak system.
