Beauty may only be skin deep, but inner strength

is another matter altogether. You either have it or

you don’t, and it goes right to the core. Our all-new

chassis features a high-strength, fully boxed steel

frame that’s five times torsionally stiffer than

before and lets Silverado HD shoulder up to 6,635 lbs.

of whatever it takes to get the job done. Looking for a

fully boxed frame on Ford F-250 or F-350? You won’t

find one. And the Silverado HD suspension got a

complete redesign with components that are bigger

and stronger than before. They were engineered

specifically to handle increased loads and do

something you probably wouldn’t expect — improve

ride quality. Call it backbone. Call it guts or internal

fortitude. Silverado HD has it from the inside out.

1 Requires Regular Cab model and gas engine. 2 Maximum payload capacity includes weight of driver, passengers,

optional equipment and cargo.

3 Requires available Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 engine and Snow Plow Prep Package.

6,000-LB. FGAWR

The front suspension has been outﬁtted with huge

precision-forged upper control arms and torsion

bars along with the largest steering gear we’ve

ever used on a heavy-duty pickup, supporting up

to a 6,000-lb. Front Gross Axle Weight Rating

(FGAWR).

So every HD 4x4 model can easily

accommodate a snow plow with the available

Snow Plow Prep Package.

INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION

The new independent front suspension allows

each front wheel to react independently to

rough terrain, helping keep each wheel in a

vertical position and more ﬁrmly planted on the

road. Compare this to a solid front axle design

where movement on one side affects the

wheel on the other.

“ bigger,

badder, and

better…”

FIFth-Wheel reAdy

It’s easy to add a ﬁfth-wheel trailer hitch to the new

Silverado HD, thanks to numerous provisions found

on the high-strength steel frame.

InCreAsed GvWr

The fully boxed frame and all-new front and rear

suspensions are the biggest reasons for the huge

increases in Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings, up to 14%

on some models. Massive components include three-

inch-wide rear leaf springs and precision-machined

forged upper control arms for added strength.

ImProved rIde

Traditionally, HD trucks have ridden like trucks.

Here’s one place we’re willing to break with tradi-

tion. Intelligently designed hydraulic body mounts

on Extended Cab and Crew Cab models improve

ride quality by helping to isolate and absorb bumps.

Larger engine and transmission mounts than

before, coupled with a stier front frame structure,

better control vibrations. We’ve even increased

track widths to enhance ride experience.

Front susPensIon enhAnCements

To better manage larger capacities, the steering

knuckle is taller and 66% heavier than before. Dual

front jounce bumpers provide two load transfer

paths to handle the increase in loads going through

the frame and lower control arm.

stronGer reAr susPensIon

The rear suspension is stronger than before and

includes 20% wider leaf springs with an asymmetric

design that reduces wheel hop on acceleration,

better handles increased payloads and results in

bigger Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings.
