Built for GMC Sierra 1500 owners who want a balanced lift with room for 33–35-inch tires, this 3.5-inch Rough Country Vertex lift kit raises and levels your truck for a more aggressive stance without sacrificing driveline geometry. Forged aluminum upper control arms preserve factory suspension angles, so your ride stays smooth on pavement and capable off-road.

What's included

  • 288 Strut Kit Box — pre-assembled front strut assembly for GMC Sierra 1500 (19–23).
  • Red Forged Upper Control Arms — maintain correct suspension geometry at 3.5-inch lift height and handle the increased articulation of your new ride.
  • Vertex 2.5 Adjustable Front Left Strut (3.5″ lift) — reservoir-style front shock with height and damping adjustment for tuned ride quality.
  • Vertex 2.5 Adjustable Front Right Strut (3.5″ lift) — matched right-side front shock with the same adjustability and performance.
  • Vertex 2.5 Rear Shocks (2–3.5″ range, qty 2) — rear pair sized to work with the 2.5-inch rear lift and compatible with 2–3.5-inch front lift kits.

Important notes

  • Does NOT fit 2019 "Classic" models (2018 body style).
  • Does NOT fit Denali or Denali Ultimate — these are equipped with Adaptive Ride Control as standard and are not compatible.
  • Does NOT fit AT4 or AT4X models — AT4 and AT4X come with a factory 2-inch lift and Multimatic DSSV dampers; this kit will not work on those trucks.
  • Diesel engine models — Rough Country's replacement strut options do not work on diesel variants due to motor weight differences. Contact Road Runner before ordering if your Sierra is diesel-powered.
  • Strut compressor required for installation.
