2011 Chevy/GM 8-lug HD suspension product from Cognito Motorsports (News,Info & PICS)
 

The NEW 2011 Chevy/GM 2500HD and 3500HD trucks have a all new suspension design. They still have IFS and torsion bars but the changes GM made are enough to demand a all new suspension upgrade parts to be made. Cognito Motorsports is the leader in the Chevy/GM suspension game but specializing in only the Chevy/GM trucks and they show it as they offer many options and upgrades to suite just about any HD truck owner.

I would like to tell everyone that your idea's are very much listened too by the President/ Engineer of Cognito Motorsports so please feel free to voice what you would like to see sooner than later be developed by Cognito and these NEW re-designed HD suspensions.

I can tell you pitman and idler steering braces are already in the design stages and as well as the UCA's that will be used as the tool to level a truck like this. From there the product will follow what they offer for the past 2001-2010 truck chassis.

NorCalTruck.com has been Cognito Motorsports top dealer for the past 4+ years and we will be there step by step bring you the news on the new product and the road to the 2010 SEMA show where the product will be released to the public, BUT some product will be released before SEMA in November and we will have more info as it is available.


Here are a couple pics of the truck they have in there building right now:
