The Cognito Motorsports 4-Inch Elite Lift Kit delivers a complete suspension solution for 2020-2022 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 trucks in both 2WD and 4WD configurations. This comprehensive kit combines precision-engineered Cognito components with premium Elka 2.5 reservoir shocks to provide 4 inches of front lift and 2 inches of rear lift, allowing fitment of up to 37x12.50 tires on 9-inch wide wheels with 5.5-inch backspacing.
SM Series Ball Joint Upper Control Arms: These boxed sheet metal upper control arms correct ball joint angles on lifted applications while improving droop travel for enhanced ride quality. Welded construction with semi-gloss black powder coating ensures durability, while pre-installed maintenance-free ball joints and pivot bushings provide hassle-free installation and long-term reliability.
Patented Pitman and Idler Arm Support Kit (PISK): Cognito's innovative design addresses the chronic wear issues that have plagued GM steering systems for decades. By providing additional support to the pitman and idler arms, the PISK eliminates unwanted forward and rearward movement of the center-link, dramatically improving steering precision and component longevity.
Elka 2.5 Remote Reservoir Shocks: These performance shocks feature dual-speed compression adjustment for optimized damping characteristics. Benefits include superior vibration attenuation, reduced cabin noise and rattles, improved handling over washboard surfaces and square-edge impacts, reduced front-end dive during cornering and braking, and enhanced stability when towing or hauling heavy loads.
