Got the 3 inch upper and Fox 2.0 for my 2023 Silverado and Man the ride is Amazing!!! I recommend the kit to anyone who wants the ride with amazing looks 👍👍👍👍
Man that fender well trimming looks great…. Definitely complements the 70k truck…. And the stock shock advise was good information… I will start changing my shocks with every oil change…..
I should have explained more on the stock shocks, standard OEM shocks are good for 7-10k miles regarding the ride quality. They are twin tube shocks and built to be cheap. They are not going to blow out in 10k miles, they just end up with reduced ride quality starting around 7-10k miles and keep deteriorating from there.
Love your truck I work for Ford and drive a raptor but I have always loved GMC trucks and Chevy trucks critics give them a lot of crap for interiors but maybe I’m a simple man but throw me some leather great sound system I’m sold
You should consider offering them with ceracote coating. The salt test results are best on the market and would be a big selling point up here in the rust belt where our vehicles rot away. To me that would make it truly elite. If you're interested in bartering I do ceracote on the side and would be happy to work out a deal to coat some test models for you. You can send them out to a testing facility and test a current model vs this, video the results and promote it. I can supply pictures of my work and references as well.
Question is why aren’t the dealers doing this for EVERY truck that comes off the line?? I mean 40-50-60-70-80 grand is a lot to have some BS shocks on it!! Ram Chevy Ford GM.
There’s some serious BS sales tactics at play here. Firstly, factory shocks only last 5k miles? They have a 3 year/36000 mile warranty, so they have to be designed to last at least that long, otherwise they’re getting replaced for free. Secondly, buying a 70k truck every 3-4 years?? What an unbelievable waste of money that tactic is. If you’re only keeping a vehicle that long, you’d be better off leasing. I’m not saying this kit is bad, just the sales pitch narrative is pretty pathetic.
Why aren't these kits leveling the trucks? It is now higher in the front than the rear and doesn't look right. I want to lift my 2022 AT4, but want it to be perfectly level...
Wow Did I just hear cognito say 8-10K miles for OE shocks in their experience? Been around the block a time or two and this now has me questioning their experience. I don’t think I would feel comfortable putting the product on my vehicle with what sounds like a lack of experience. Fox however has already proven themselves time and time again.

@@justinlambert6185 I cant speak to the 10K number, but I still had OE at the 70K mark and they were blown out. Wasn't about to just replace with OE, so the cognito 3" lift kit was my choice on short notice it was available and is being installed today. Looking forward to seeing and driving it. And I'll leave feedback once its done.
Woah...5k-9k lifespan on OE shocks? Not buying Cognito parts if these guys can't be real with customers on lifespan of stock parts. 😒 Guess I'll start changing my shocks with my oil.

no its 07-18 as far as suspension and shocks. the only difference is in 2014 they introduced larger upper and lower ball joints. The chassis is same, shocks are same from 07-18
you dont have to if you want to keep the stock shocks. Or you can buy a kit for $400 to plug in and bypass it, or spend 10 minutes per shock doing it the way we showed in the video. If you dont find value in us trying to help you save money in that aspect, then dont watch.
Looks like it’s squatting in back I don’t like it I have same truck same colour Thinking of levelling the truck but not that high in front Thanks for the video 👍✌️🇨🇦
would you prefer the standard bed with the crew cab? i’m torn between the two but can’t find a crew cab with a standard bed anywhere around me to test drive and see in person
@@TruckGuyTy you will have a hard time finding the exact truck you want during these harsh times. I have a short bed 2021 gmc sierra 1500 slt x31 with the 6.2 engine an I'm really happy.
@@pipedesigner yeah i’d be waiting a long time i’m eyeing up a crew RST with the short bed 3.0l diesel engine my buddy has coming in might jump on that one when it’s available to put a deposit.. the more i see them i’m thinking the short bed will work fine i’d get used to it plus chevys short bed is a couple inches bigger than the other crew short beds coming from a tundra
Wtf he’s talking about the previous models and he had a 2017 but not a 2018 2019 2020 smfh just talk out their ass. Just say it handles better than the 2017

I made up my mind.
This is exactly what I want.
Mines Cherry Red 3.0 Diesel.
🤘🏼
OE shocks have a much longer lifespan than 8-10k miles
He also said that the previous generation was 07 to 18 when it was 14 to 18. Needs tk do some research lol
OE shocks last longer than 5 to 8K miles. Stop BS people.
@@rickmaher4283 depends what you do with them. Constant towing or even slight off-road use will destroy those cheap ass ranchos
@@rickmaher4283 Not when they are the junk Rancho shocks that come on the X31. Complete pieces of shit!
Im 115k miles in with my stock shocks 😅
Show us how he got rid of the mud flaps and the "aero" flaps.
Truck looks beautiful!!!
search for 'Truck Hardware Finishing Caps', they replace the ugly stock 'mud guards'
I have the exact same Denali in the exact same color and will get the exact same upgrades… I even like the bronze wheels… great video.
Was the color
My 2023 lt trail boss is on order. I will be ordering this kit for it.
Love your truck I work for Ford and drive a raptor but I have always loved GMC trucks and Chevy trucks critics give them a lot of crap for interiors but maybe I’m a simple man but throw me some leather great sound system I’m sold
you don't like the ARC ? Wow? The ride is so much smoother with the ARC , compared to my 2020 SLT. I love the 2021 Denali ride.
I am not impressed with ARC, everytime we delete ARC and put a better shock on a truck, the owner is impressed with the improvement.

Love this look… just ordered the kit, did you need a spacer for the wheels to clear the brake calipers?
You guys need to da video with a 2021 silverado and the kings instead of fox
Super clean....but Surprised it took you 4 months to do it lol. I had mine 2500 AT4 for one day and ordered my Cognito kit lol
Why aren't these kits leveling the trucks? It is now higher in the front than the rear and doesn't look right. I want to lift my 2022 AT4, but want it to be perfectly level...
Clearance of bigger tires and pre runner look is my best guess. I personally like it and just bought it lol.
When it’s slightly higher up front I don’t mind in fact I love.. but when it looks like a low rider then that’s something else lol
as i mentioned at the end of the video, we also have leveling lift kits that have rear lift as well.
your AT4 will be level with just our leveling kit, since your truck already has a 2" block in the rear, stock.
beautiful truck… might be a dumb question here but it’s kinda hard to tell is that a crew cab short box or standard bed?
Short
With the addition of your blocks in the back, would the truck sit perfectly level? Or would it retain the factory rake look?
Looks low at the rear axle and way high at front....is that normal
listen to the last 2 minutes of the video where it explains we offer provisions to lift the rear also, depending on what you want.
I think the High Country has the ARC.
Are those coil overs adjustable up to 3” or is it just “you get 3” and you like it”? There’s not much that goes to 2.5”
pretty much 3", there is a little room to back off to 2.5" height increase. If the truck is an AT4 or Trail Boss, this will get 1" more height.
How to calibrate speedometer?
How bad is 3.23 gear ratio with 35s? Will burn your transmission or not big problem for road use?
Will this same setup and tire combo fit on my 2017 Denali? I ordered the suspension (woot!)
Yes it should!

Stop skipping leg day bruhs!!
ok thanks for the tip
Needs a regear now
not with a 6.2L and 10 speed trans. These trucks get up and go!
Should you lower the transfer case with this 3" lift? Just curious about the CV angles.
I think you mean the front differential, we have not seen the need to lower the front differential, have not had an issue with CV axles.
@@justinlambert6185 Sorry, you're correct. Front differential. Thanks.

Lol, OEM shocks should last closer to 50k. They kind of suck anyways though. Went to Bilsteins on mine and it rides way better, especially off-road

Hey so will this 3inch level/lift kit work on a 2021 GMC elevation RWD diesel? Allowing me to put 35s and 22s on?
yes it will fit that truck. 35s will fit as long as your wheel is max 9" wide with offset in the range of 0mm to +18mm.
Looking to purchase this kit. Any Memorial Day sales?
They will have one on their website starting Friday!
@@kylepittser didn’t see any codes or discounts yesterday did you?
What wheels are these?
Will this kit work for the 2022 refresh Denali with 3.0 Duramax?
yes
0 offset would be better I think
Yep, would have been worth the extra trimming. I went with -6
I have a zero with 37s and 18s and because there 37s they actually poke like a -12
What's the price for this setup
can you still use auto 4wd?
^^^
i dont know why you wouldnt be able to
Those cv axle angles 😬
no problems.
So is he a customer or does he work there?
I am the owner, and Brandon is the operations manager at Cognito
I'll trade ya a quality Microphone for a 3" leveling kit....
Ahhh he wants an off road look but bought the Denli? 🙄🙄🙄
And the years he messed up on its 14-19
no its 07-18 as far as suspension and shocks. the only difference is in 2014 they introduced larger upper and lower ball joints. The chassis is same, shocks are same from 07-18
4K for a leveling kit when you have to zip tie a module?? Get out of here, shits gotta be a joke😂😂

8K miles shocks life span? You guys are rich.

Thanks for the video 👍✌️🇨🇦
you must have missed the last 3 minutes of the video where we talk about how you have the option to lift the rear.
Butcher job on trimming 👎✌️✌️
8k to 10k life of oem shock is BS. Don’t miss lead the public to sell your shit 💩

a Denali for 60K? What dealership he's going to, PLZ let me know, I wanna shop there!
Is their rebuild kits for the shocks?
