About this kit

7.5-Inch Lift Kit with Loaded Struts, fitment-checked

Rough Country 28601 is the loaded-strut build of the 7.5-inch lift kit for 2007-2014 Tahoe, Yukon, and Yukon XL 1500, plus Yukon XL 2500 through 2013. A 7.5-inch loaded strut pair replaces the front struts outright, and a 6-inch rear coil lifts the back. Wheels must be 18 inches or larger. Minor cutting and drilling is required. Auto Ride, auto-leveling, and electric-steering models do not fit.

A 7.5-inch lift kit for the 2007-2014 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon, and Yukon XL 1500 that includes a complete 7.5-inch loaded strut pair rather than a strut spacer, along with the high-clearance crossmember, knuckles, and a 6-inch rear coil. Stock differential mounts, drivetrain, and exhaust stay as they are. Plan on minor cutting and drilling, and on wheels 18 inches or larger. Auto Ride and auto-leveling models are out, as are electric-steering trucks, and AWD requires driveline modification. Shipping weight is 276 lb.
