Built for GMC Sierra 1500 owners who want a balanced lift without going full-height — this 3.5-inch Suspension Lift Kit lifts and levels your truck while preserving factory suspension geometry through forged aluminum upper control arms. Run up to 35-inch tires with improved ground clearance and an aggressive stance.

What's included

  • 288 Strut Kit Box — front strut assembly for GMC Sierra 1500.
  • Red Forged Upper Control Arms — premium aluminum construction maintains correct suspension geometry and provides durability for the 3.5-inch lift height.
  • Vertex 2.5 Adjustable Front Struts (Left & Right) — reservoir shocks with 2.5-inch stroke, tuned for smooth handling and terrain absorption.
  • V2 Monotube Shock Pair — rear shock absorbers engineered for the lift kit's geometry and load capacity.

Important notes

  • Does NOT fit 2019 "Classic" models (2018 body style).
  • Does NOT fit Denali or Denali Ultimate models — they are equipped with Adaptive Ride Control as a standard package.
  • Does NOT fit AT4 or AT4X models — these come with a 2-inch factory lift and are incompatible with this kit.
  • Does NOT work on diesel models due to variances in motor weight — Rough Country's replacement strut options are gasoline-engine only.
  • Installation requires a strut compressor; plan 5–6 hours for complete setup.
