Product Overview

The MaxTrac Suspension Lowering Kit for 2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 is designed for truck owners who want to significantly lower their pickup while maintaining a performance-oriented stance and improved road handling. This kit offers two different rear-drop configurations—approximately 3 inches front and 5 inches rear, or 4 inches front and 6 inches rear—allowing customers to choose the stance that best fits their build. It is available for both 2WD and 4WD applications, making it a versatile option for customized Silverado and Sierra projects.

At the front, the kit utilizes lowering spindles and strut components to bring the truck closer to the ground while retaining the factory-style suspension geometry and ride characteristics. The included lowering spindles relocate the wheel hub upward relative to the spindle, lowering the vehicle without requiring the extreme changes associated with simply using shorter springs. This approach can help provide a clean, controlled lowered appearance while maintaining usable suspension travel.

The kit also incorporates cast-steel control arms, providing a strong foundation for the lowered suspension setup. These components are designed to withstand the loads associated with everyday driving while supporting the truck's revised suspension geometry. Depending on the selected drop configuration, the combination of front spindles/struts and rear suspension components creates a noticeably lower center of gravity and a more aggressive street-truck stance.

One of the biggest benefits of a MaxTrac lowering system is the transformation it provides to the truck's overall appearance. Lowering the Silverado or Sierra reduces the gap between the tires and fenders, giving the vehicle a more streamlined and performance-focused profile. The setup pairs particularly well with aftermarket wheels and tires, making it a popular choice for custom street trucks, show builds, and enthusiasts looking for a sportier alternative to a traditional lifted setup.

Overall, the MaxTrac 3/5–4/6 Lowering Kit is a comprehensive solution for owners of 2007–2018 Silverado/Sierra 1500 trucks seeking a dramatic reduction in ride height without completely redesigning the vehicle's suspension. With lowering spindles, strut components, and durable cast-steel arms, the kit combines aggressive styling, improved road-focused handling, and a purpose-built suspension design for a customized lowered-truck appearance.
