We have bundled everything you need in a leveling kit for your Silverado/Sierra 1500 2WD/4WD with high quality Cognito components.
There is no guesswork. Cognito components are engineered, manufactured, and assembled in the USA. The Cognito 3-Inch Elite Leveling Kit includes the Cognito SM Series Upper Control Arm Kit, Fox 2.5 Performance Elite Series Remote Reservoir Coilover front shocks, and Fox 2.5 Performance Elite Series Remote Reservoir rear shocks. The Cognito SM Series Upper Control Arms add style, function, and performance to your vehicle by improving the allowable droop travel for a better ride quality.
The control arm kit features boxed sheet metal arms that are powder coated semi-gloss black. Press in ball joints/Uniballs are pre-installed and retained with black anodized, Cognito branded laser etched caps.
New crush sleeves and polyurethane bushings are included. The Cognito SM Series Upper Control Arms provide ample droop travel that is required for good ride quality and all suspension components to last and work properly. Fox's Performance Elite Series shocks provide a bolt on suspension system that elevates your on and off-road performance to unmatched levels.
Each kit has been subjected to punishing real world testing to develop the optimal damping curves and spring rates for your vehicle. Built with the same quality of materials and precise tolerances found on our high-end race shocks our upgrade kits enable you to experience the famous Fox ride quality on your daily driver or pre-runner.

• Yields 3 Inches of Front Lift

I should have explained more on the stock shocks, standard OEM shocks are good for 7-10k miles regarding the ride quality. They are twin tube shocks and built to be cheap. They are not going to blow out in 10k miles, they just end up with reduced ride quality starting around 7-10k miles and keep deteriorating from there.

There’s some serious BS sales tactics at play here. Firstly, factory shocks only last 5k miles? They have a 3 year/36000 mile warranty, so they have to be designed to last at least that long, otherwise they’re getting replaced for free. Secondly, buying a 70k truck every 3-4 years?? What an unbelievable waste of money that tactic is. If you’re only keeping a vehicle that long, you’d be better off leasing. I’m not saying this kit is bad, just the sales pitch narrative is pretty pathetic.

You should consider offering them with ceracote coating. The salt test results are best on the market and would be a big selling point up here in the rust belt where our vehicles rot away. To me that would make it truly elite. If you're interested in bartering I do ceracote on the side and would be happy to work out a deal to coat some test models for you. You can send them out to a testing facility and test a current model vs this, video the results and promote it. I can supply pictures of my work and references as well.
