Front Suspension – 3″ Drop Lowering Control Arms

The front drop in this kit is achieved using DJM Lowering Control Arms. Instead of cutting springs or compromising your factory ride quality, these precision-engineered arms maintain correct suspension geometry while lowering your truck by 3 inches.

Key Features of the Lowering Control Arms:

• Direct-Fit Design – No frame modifications needed

• Improved Ball Joint Angles – Prevents premature wear from lowered geometry

• Pre-Installed Components – Comes with new urethane bushings and pivot sleeves for durability

• Factory Coil Spring Compatibility – Retain your OEM or aftermarket springs without clearance issues

By lowering with control arms instead of just drop springs, you keep your factory suspension travel intact, making for a smoother ride and improved handling.

Rear Suspension – 5″ Drop Flip Kit

For the rear, this kit uses a DJM Axle Flip Kit to relocate the axle above the leaf springs, producing a full 5-inch drop. The included passenger-side shock extender ensures proper shock angle after lowering, preventing bind and improving suspension articulation.

Rear Flip Kit Benefits:

• C-Notch Frame Supports – Maintains clearance and prevents bottoming out

• Pinion Angle Correction – Integrated design keeps driveline geometry correct

• Heavy-Duty Construction – Designed for daily driving, hauling, and show use

The combination of a 3″ front drop and 5″ rear drop gives your Silverado or Sierra a balanced, level stance with a subtle rake that enhances performance and style.

Included DJM Drop Shocks

Shocks are a critical component of any lowering kit. With this package, you get DJM’s specially tuned shocks, engineered for lowered suspension travel to deliver better handling, improved comfort, and reduced bottoming out.

• Front Shock #1415 – Designed to work with 3-inch lowered control arms for responsive handling and a smooth ride.

• Rear Driver’s Side Shock #1800 – Optimized to handle a 5-inch rear drop without over-compressing.

• Rear Passenger’s Side Shock #1900 – Works in conjunction with the supplied shock extender to maintain ideal shock travel.
