7" 2001-2013 GMC Yukon XL 2500 Premier Lift Kit (w/Fox 2.0 Resi Shocks) by Cognito

Upgrade your GMC Yukon XL 2500 2WD/4WD with the high-quality Cognito 210-P1142 7-inch Lift Kit. It is designed to improve performance and comfort while providing fender clearance for tires up to 35 inches in diameter.

Cognito components are engineered, manufactured, and assembled in the USA, ensuring top-notch quality. The Cognito Front Lift Kit is designed to deliver superior ride quality and corrected CV joint angles for enhanced vehicle handling. This kit features an integrated skid plate that securely connects the front and rear cross members, providing exceptional front-end rigidity. Custom-fabricated spindles (steering knuckles) will correct steering geometry.

In the rear, Deaver brand leaf springs replace the rear lift OEM springs, providing 6 inches of lift while maintaining excellent ride quality. This is achieved through high-quality spring steel construction with a higher leaf count for a more compliant ride.

The Cognito Ball Joint SM Series Upper Control Arms enhance style, function, and performance by correcting the ball joint angle for lifted and leveled applications. This adjustment improves droop travel, leading to a smoother ride. The control arms are constructed from boxed sheet metal, CNC robot welded, and finished with a semi-gloss black powder coating. The kit includes ball joints, new crush sleeves, and polyurethane bushings.

The Cognito Pitman and Idler Arm Support Kit (PISK) addresses long-standing steering system issues in Chevy and GMC trucks and SUVs. This innovative, patented design provides additional support to the pitman and idler arms, eliminating the center link's forward and rearward movement, which enhances overall steering stability.

Fox 2.0 Performance Series Remote Reservoir shocks incorporate the latest shock technology to boost your truck's performance significantly. The front shocks feature rust-resistant, metal impact extruded aluminum bodies that increase cooling capacity and eliminate oil aeration, allowing maximum performance from factory-tuned precision valving. These shocks are easy to install and deliver a comfortable on-road ride and predictable off-road handling, even in the toughest conditions.
