Reserve yours today from Marken Performance. With the near total redesign of the 2014 GM 1500 trucks, GM has retained the proven coil-over control arm suspension found on 1500 trucks since 2007. But there are some visual differences on the 2014. First, the front sway bar has been relocated to the rear of the lower control arms instead of the front to improve stability. Visually GM has acknowledged the new 2014 GM1500 truck sport two different suspension material configurations. Some vehicles will come with an "aluminum suspension system while others will utilize steel components formally seen on the 2007-2013 models.
The aluminum suspension trucks have forged aluminum steering knuckles and aluminum upper and lower control arms while the steel suspension trucks possess cast iron steering knuckles and forged steel upper and lower control arms. The "aluminum suspension" trucks are said to be targeted for the 4WD Crew Cab with 5'-8" beds and 4WD Regular Cab with 6'-6" beds. GM states that all other 2014 configurations, including 2WD models, will possess the steel suspension configuration.
Note: While the changes and differences appear to be material, we have ReadyLIFT® have discovered that in fact the front strut internal design has been changed for 2014 to increase spring rate through internal dampening design changes and the development of an all-new strut isolator design.
With this discovery our T6-3085 Leveling Kit Will NOT Work on 2014 GM 1500 trucks. We are already working a new T6-Billet 2.25" Leveling Kit that will work on 2014 GM trucks.
