Why Lower the Front of Your Trailblazer?
From the factory, the Chevy Trailblazer sits relatively high in the front, providing off-road clearance but giving it a taller stance than many SUV owners prefer for daily driving or show use. By lowering the front 2 inches, you can:
-
Enhance Appearance – Create a balanced, aggressive stance that complements custom wheels.
-
Improve Handling – Lower center of gravity results in better stability during cornering.
-
Reduce Body Roll – Firmer, more responsive handling for spirited driving.
-
Maintain Ride Quality – Our kit keeps suspension angles within spec for a smooth ride.
-
Support Performance Builds – Perfect for show trucks, street performance builds, and daily drivers alike.

Pre-installed high-quality bushings for quiet operation and extended life.

Why This Kit Is Better Than Other Lowering Methods
There are several ways to lower a Trailblazer, such as cut springs, drop spindles, or coilover swaps. However, each has drawbacks:
-
Cutting Springs – Harsh ride, improper geometry, and premature wear.
-
Lowering Springs Alone – May cause alignment issues and uneven tire wear.
-
Drop Spindles – Not commonly available for Trailblazer and can affect clearance.
Our upper control arm + strut bracket combination solves these problems by lowering the front while keeping the suspension geometry correct, so your alignment stays within factory specs and your tires last as long as they should.
Installation Overview
Tools Needed:
-
Floor jack & jack stands
-
Socket and wrench set
-
Torque wrench
-
Pry bar (optional)
-
Safety glasses & gloves
Step-by-Step:
-
Secure Vehicle – Park on a level surface, set the parking brake, and chock the rear wheels.
-
Lift Front End – Use a floor jack to raise the front and secure with jack stands.
-
Remove Factory Control Arms – Unbolt and carefully remove the OEM upper control arms.
-
Install New Control Arms – Position the new arms and tighten bolts to the recommended torque.
-
Install Strut Lowering Brackets – Unbolt the strut assembly, position the lowering brackets, and reattach.
-
Reassemble & Torque – Tighten all fasteners to manufacturer specifications.
-
Perform Alignment – Always get a professional alignment after lowering.
Pro Tip: For the best results, consider pairing this kit with a rear lowering kit like the Chevy Trailblazer 2 Inch Rear Lowering Kit to create a level stance front-to-back.
