3" 2019-2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Standard SM Series Leveling Kit by Cognito

The Cognito 110-91288 3" Standard SM Series Leveling Kit is a complete front leveling solution for GMC Sierra 1500 2WD/4WD trucks. Engineered, manufactured, and assembled in the USA, this kit combines premium Cognito components into one straightforward package — eliminating guesswork while delivering proven performance and durability.

This system includes the Cognito SM Series Upper Control Arm Kit, precision-designed strut spacers, and preload spacers, all engineered to work together with the factory front shocks. The combination provides 3 inches of front lift while maintaining adequate droop travel to preserve ride quality and suspension performance.

The included SM Series upper control arms feature a modified ball joint angle to eliminate travel limitations commonly encountered in lifted applications. By maximizing operating angle and correcting geometry, these arms improve durability, suspension articulation, and long-term reliability.

This leveling kit reduces the factory nose-down rake, creating a more aggressive, leveled stance while maintaining factory ride characteristics. It is also compatible with models equipped with Adaptive Ride Control, including Denali and Trail Boss trims.
