About this kit

2-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 26530 is a 2-inch lift kit for 1977–1987 Chevy and GMC 3/4-ton 4WD pickups and Suburbans, built around front and rear lifted leaf springs and two N3 shock pairs. It fits only trucks running 56-inch rear leaf springs, so measure before you order.

This 2-inch lift kit for the 1977–1987 Chevy/GMC 3/4-ton 4WD covers K20, K20 Suburban, V20 Suburban, K25, K2500, and K2500 Suburban applications listed in the fitment section. The box holds two front leaf springs, two rear leaf springs, a universal U-bolt kit, a front spring install kit with brake line relocation brackets, hardware, and two N3 shock pairs valved for this application. Rough Country lists a 6 - 8 hours install window. Trucks with a front sway bar do better with drop brackets (SKU 1019), and quad-shock trucks run a single shock per corner.
