These aftermarket components modify a vehicle’s suspension to increase ride height. Designed specifically for a particular model year of a mid-size pickup truck, these kits offer varying degrees of lift and are typically comprised of spacers, springs, shocks, or a combination thereof. The purpose is to raise the body of the vehicle further from the axles, allowing for larger tires and improved ground clearance.
The incorporation of such kits presents multiple advantages. Improved off-road capability is a primary benefit, enabling navigation over rough terrain more easily. A more aggressive aesthetic appearance is another frequently cited reason for installation. Furthermore, these modifications allow for the fitment of larger, more aggressive tires, further enhancing both on- and off-road performance. Historically, vehicle owners have sought such alterations to improve performance and customize the visual appeal of their trucks.
