ReadyLIFT is excited to now offer a brand new 7 inch big lift kit for 2014-2018 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. This new lift system will work with trucks equipped with or without MagneRide. The new 44-3471 7 inch lift kit is designed for use on 2014-2018 GM 1500 trucks equipped with the factory Forged Steel front suspension. Some of the great features our new 7 inch lift kit includes retaining the factory turning radius while minimizing track width increase to less than 0.5" per side. This kit will allow for up to a 35" tall tire on a 9 inch wide wheel with -12 offset. Our new "clam-shell" style lower strut extension retains use of the factory struts (both standard and front MagneRide) and does not require strut rotation. These new clam-shell brackets utilizes our TCT lower bushings to provide a precise pivot point that maintains the factory ride. Boxed steel front/rear cross members and full width front skid plate are constructed of thick 3/16" plate steel while also allowing for use of the OE front plastic gravel guard to protect the engine bay and retain the proper air flow as intended by the GM designers. New 1/4-inch boxed plate steel differential drop brackets feature a double gusset and boxed center rib to take the abuse of front differential torsional twisting. (Not for use on AWD applications - 2WD or 4WD only). Rear lift is achieved with fabricated 3/16-inch thick plate steel rear lift blocks that include built-in bump stop landings and an offset pin design to properly center the axle and specific angles to the blocks to retain the proper pinion angle. This new lift system includes premium extended length Bilstein rear shocks. Notes: Fits up to a 35 tall off road tire - requires a 9 inch wide wheel with -12 offset for no rub (tire tread varies - some aggressive tires may require minor trimming. Not for use on AWD applications Includes ReadyLIFT ReadyGuard Powertrain Warranty Not recommended for GMC Denali 1500 with REAR MagneRide or other models with Rear MagneRide. Only Front MagneRide compatible.

  
  
  
  

TIRE FITMENT

Allows for up to a 35" tall off road tire

Requires at least a 9 inch wide wheel with -12 offset

Tire Size Note: ReadyLIFT wheel and tire fitment recommendations are typically based on Wheel Pros wheels and Nitto tires. Due to product differences among tire manufacturers, tire specifications and dimensions including, but limited to, overall diameter, rolling diameter, tread width, aspect ratio, lug pattern, sidewall construction and inflation pressure, will vary meaningfully by tire and wheel manufacturer. Every tire and wheel combination should be test fit prior to installation. Consult your local installer to learn more about the right tire fitment for your application.

Ride Quality Note: When lifting a vehicle and installing aftermarket wheels and tires, a tire manufacturer's construction and material quality can alter vehicle ride quality. When increasing a vehicle wheel and tire size, most larger aftermarket truck and SUV tires are 10-ply (or more) E tires compared to typical OEM 6-ply C tires. This more rigid sidewall construction increases the perception of suspension stiffness often described as ride harshness. The ride, handling, traction, noise, fuel economy, and wear differences between All-Season, All-Terrain, Mud-Terrain, or Trail-Terrain type tires can be significant. Please take into account tire and wheel choice will generally have a meaningful impact on the ride & handling experience.
