7.5 Inch Lift Kit | Vertex/v2 | Chevy/gmc 1500 2wd (07-13)

Built for 2WD Chevy and GMC 1500 owners who want an aggressive, leveled stance without sacrificing practicality, this 7.5-inch lift kit delivers a head-turning profile while maintaining factory wheel compatibility. You'll gain the clearance to run 37–40 inch tires and the ground clearance to handle serious off-road terrain, all with a balanced front-to-rear appearance that looks as good as it performs.

What's included

• Knuckles — precision-machined front knuckles engineered to work seamlessly with factory 18- or 20-inch wheels and support the increased lift height.
• Crossmember Box — high-clearance design that maximizes ground clearance for off-road performance and obstacle navigation.
• 7.5-Inch Lift Kit Box — the structural core of the system, laser-cut for precision fit and featuring fabricated rear blocks that are stronger than cast alternatives.
• Vertex 2.5 Adjustable Front Coilovers (qty 2) — nitrogen-charged suspension components that fine-tune ride quality and maintain proper geometry throughout the lift range.
• V2 Monotube Shock Pair — rear shocks engineered with anti-axle wrap technology to preserve factory ride comfort while eliminating binding common with standard lift blocks.

Important notes

• Factory 18- or 20-inch wheels are required for proper clearance of the supplied knuckles. If retaining factory wheels, a 0.25-inch wheel spacer (SKU 1065) is required.
• Does not fit 2007 "Classic" models.
• Installation requires minor cutting and drilling.
