Lift Kits & Suspension in Austin, TX

Lifting a truck is the easy part. What separates a build that lasts from one that eats parts is everything that changes with it: steering geometry, driveline angles, brake load, tire wear, and how the whole thing behaves loaded. We do the install and we do the alignment, and we will tell you what else the truck needs before it becomes a repair.

What we do

• Leveling kits to clear a larger tire
• Full suspension systems with the geometry engineered in
• Shocks, control arms, and steering components
• Alignment afterward — not as an upsell, as part of the job
• Driveline angle, brake, and tire-load checks for the new height

Lines we carry

The part most people skip

Height is the visible half of a lift. The half that decides whether you enjoy the truck is everything downstream: steering geometry, driveline angles, brake load, and tire wear. A truck running outside alignment spec will destroy a set of tires long before you expected to buy them, and larger tires quietly change your effective gearing and stopping distance at the same time.

So the install includes an alignment, and we look at the brakes, steering, and suspension for the load they are now carrying. If something needs doing, you hear it before it becomes a repair rather than after.

If the truck works for a living

Towing changes the calculation. Ride height changes trailer geometry and weight transfer, and a truck that tows five days a week has a different right answer from one that does not — often a smaller one. If you run more than a couple of vehicles, that decision is also a fleet decision; talk to fleet rather than doing it truck by truck.

Emissions stay intact

Suspension work does not touch emissions equipment, and we do not delete or bypass any of it. See accessories for the full line, or call 512-717-2777 and tell us what the truck is for.

Common questions

Do you align the truck after a lift?

Yes, and it is not optional. A lift changes steering geometry, and a truck driven out of spec destroys a set of tires faster than most people expect. Heavy-truck alignment is its own discipline — more on that on our alignment page.

How big a lift can I run on a diesel truck?

More than you probably should. The limit that matters is not what fits, it is what the driveline, brakes, and steering are happy carrying every day with a trailer behind you. Tell us what the truck does for a living and we will give you a straight answer, including when a leveling kit gets you most of what you actually want.

Will a lift affect towing?

It can. Ride height changes trailer geometry and how weight transfers, and a taller truck with larger tires changes effective gearing and braking. None of that is disqualifying, but it should be part of the decision rather than discovered on the first trip.
