SuspensionMAXX MAXXCam 5 Leveling Kit 15-16 GM 2500HD / 3500
Description
SuspensionMAXX MAXXCam 5 Adjustable Leveling Kit2015-2016 GM 2500HD / 3500 4x4The SuspensionMAXX MAXXCam 5 AdjustableTorsion Bar Leveling Kit replaces your stock torsion bar keys with anadjustable design that enables you to lift, level or lower the frontsuspension of your GM Heavy Duty truck just the right amount for yourneeds. MAXXCam 5 provides 1"-2.5" of adjustable lift height.Rather than being a standard one position torsion bar key, MAXXCam 5 incorporates a patented internal gear adjustment mechanism that raises or lowers the suspension in increments with a choice of seven positions. MAXXCam can be calibrated to any amount of corrected height and degree torsion bars require with controlled preload and no degradation in handling or ride quality. MAXX Cam 5 torsion bar keys are precision manufactured using 4140 heat-treated alloy steel for high strength, and feature industrial strength powder coating for added protection from the elements.
As of 2015, the Chevrolet and GMC Heavy Duty truck's upper control arms are constructed with forged steel that is stronger and lighter than the previous arms, while new lower arms are cast iron to maximize load capacity. Additionally, distinctive torsion bars are used for each gross weight rating to allow improved control over vehicle height, resulting in improved handling and better alignment for reduced tire wear. MAXXCam 5 complements these new components and includes shock extensions so original shocks can be used thereby maintaining the comfortable stock ride and reducing installation expense. SMX-MC5 is multi powertrain compatible applicable both gas and diesel engine trucks in one kit.
MAXXCam 5 kits include all required hardware including differential relocation spacers to maintain proper axle shaft geometry. MAXXCam is a lower cost option to high-priced full lift kits. Quick to install when using the SuspensionMAXX torsion bar unloader tool, requires no extensive modifications to the vehicle, and is completely reversible. Made in the USA. There is no other product like it.
MAXXCam 5 installation takes approximately 1-2 hours using the SuspensionMAXX 2011 Super 'T' MAXX tool, and is supported by the SuspensionMAXX Technical Support Program. Covered by the MAXX Structural Lifetime Warranty.

If you are going to
"If you are going to level your 2500hd, this is the only way to go. I put Bilstein 5100 shocks on my truck and this leveling kit and the look, ride, and handling of my 2015 silverado is amazzing."
2016 Denali HD
"installed SUSPENSIONMAXX MAXXCAM 5 LEVELING KIT 15-16 GM 2500HD / 3500 on my truck. Went In easy! great Video. . . installed 275/65R20 Cooper Discoverer AT3 LTX no rubbing and looks Great. The ride and handing is vastly improved."
Worked out fine fixed my
"Worked out fine fixed my problem from factory keys having to be cranked up all the way and way better ride now"
Maxx keys
"I have a 2016 Silverado 3500 6. 6 and tried other keys. The problem is truck came with snow plow package and has heavy duty torsion bars so the front is higher than the back “ pooch scooch “. With maxx keys you have multiple positions and made my ride height perfect . Absolutely only key set to purchase. Also was able to fit 285/75-18 no rub on stock rims !"
Keys didnt fit exactly
"The kit is great quality and comes with everything you need except spacers for skid plate. (When using the differential spacer the skid plate needs spacers to lower it the same amount as the diff is raised. Also my keys did not line up with my stock torsion bars on my 2016 gmc denalli. After some minor shop work they installed correctly and give me the exact ride hieght I wanted with the factory ride and handling. Would recommend and would purchase again."
Great product but costly compared to alternative.
"Great product. Allows you to tune your torsion leveling system where others don't dive any adjustability at all. Wish it came with the control arms for less than 600 more."
Would buy their products
"My truck torsion bar hexagons doesnt match the bar keys. Suspension maxx had those bar keys that will match the tensions on torsion bars AND level truck just right!! I owed my GRATITUDE to Mr. Larry. My truck drives very strong now and " caddie" feeling! Thank you Mr. Larry!! Sorry i asked so many dumb questions ��"
I would buy this product again.
"The ride is great!"
I would buy this product again.
"High quality parts, easy to follow Directions."
Q&A
- How do u get the full 3 inches out of it
- That particular kit would adjust for up to 2.5 inches of lift in the front. If you are looking for a full 3in shoot us a call. -Sands
- Will this kit work on a 2017 GMC 3500 Denali with the L5P duramax. It's a crew cab long box. If it won't work do you have a kit that will work? What part number? Is this kit rated for the max axle weight of 5600lbs of you have a kit that works so you have a shock recommendation rather then using the shock spacers.
- The Maxxcam 7 kit from Suspension max will work. It is in the 17-18 2500/3500 section. You would need to run the shock spacers still. I don't have a direct swap in shock for a leveled truck. Those will work for all gvw.
