Description
Axiom Stage 1 Leveling Kit | 2" Front Lift | 2007–2018 Chevy Silverado / GMC Sierra 1500 6-Lug
The Axiom Stage 1 Leveling Kit (SKU: AXGM07STAGE1) lifts the front of 2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 6-lug trucks up to 2", correcting factory rake and leveling the stance for improved appearance and larger tire clearance. High-strength metal construction with corrosion-resistant finish. Direct bolt-on installation — no cutting required. Designed specifically for the GMT900 and K2XX GM 1500 coil spring front suspension platform. Front-end alignment is mandatory after installation.
Verified Fitment (OFAS Standard)
- Chevy Silverado 1500 6-Lug (Front): 2007–2018 — GMT900 (2007–2013) and K2XX (2014–2018) platforms
- GMC Sierra 1500 6-Lug (Front): 2007–2018 — GMT900 (2007–2013) and K2XX (2014–2018) platforms
Does NOT fit: 2006 or earlier Silverado/Sierra 1500 (torsion bar front suspension — use AXGMKEY99 leveling keys instead). Does not fit 2019 or newer Silverado/Sierra 1500 (T1XX platform — different front suspension geometry). Does not fit 4-lug Silverado/Sierra 1500. Does not fit 2500HD or 3500HD (different front suspension — see AXGM10STAGE1 for HD).
Technical Specifications
- SKU: AXGM07STAGE1
- Stage: Stage 1 — leveling kit
- Front Lift: 2"
- Rear Lift: None — front leveling only
- Construction: High-strength metal, corrosion-resistant finish
- Installation: Direct bolt-on, no cutting required
- Weight: 5 lbs
- Application: Daily driving, towing, hauling — corrects factory front-to-rear rake
Installation Notes
- Alignment mandatory: Full front-end alignment (caster, camber, toe) is required after installation. A leveling kit changes front suspension geometry — do not drive the vehicle until aligned by a qualified alignment technician.
- Caster correction: A 2" front lift on the GMT900/K2XX 1500 platform will reduce positive caster. On trucks used for towing or highway driving, adjustable upper control arms or a caster correction kit is recommended to restore factory caster angle and maintain steering stability.
- Shock compatibility: Verify front shock travel is compatible with 2" of additional lift. Stock shocks may top out on full droop after leveling — consider upgrading to a shock rated for 0–2" of front lift on the 2007–2018 GM 1500 platform.
- Tire size: A 2" front lift provides clearance for tires up to approximately 33–34" on stock wheels. Verify wheel offset and backspacing before upsizing tires to avoid rubbing on the inner fender or UCA.
- Torque specs: Torque all suspension hardware to OEM specification for 2007–2018 GM 1500 (verify in GM service manual or Axiom install sheet).
- Re-torque: Re-torque all hardware after the first 500 miles of driving following installation.
Installation Warning
Do not install on 2006 or earlier Silverado/Sierra 1500 — torsion bar front suspension is incompatible with this coil spring leveling kit. Do not install on 2019 or newer Silverado/Sierra 1500 (T1XX) — different front suspension geometry. Do not drive the vehicle until a full front-end alignment has been completed. Failure to re-torque hardware after break-in can result in loose suspension components and unsafe handling. Once installed, the kit is non-returnable.
What is your current tire size, intended use (daily/tow/off-road), and have you confirmed your truck is 2007–2018 6-lug GMT900 or K2XX (not 2006 or earlier torsion bar, and not 2019+ T1XX)?
