About this kit

3.5-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 22650 raises the front of compatible 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 trucks 3.5 inches and the rear 2.5 inches, so the stance sits level front to back. The kit pairs forged aluminum upper control arms with adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts and matching Vertex 2.5 rear shocks. It does not fit 2019 "Classic" (2018 body style), Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, or diesel trucks.

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 covers Base, Elevation, Pro, SLE, and SLT builds in both 4WD and RWD, plus the Sierra 1500 Limited applications listed in the fitment section. Contents include one pair of forged aluminum upper control arms with pre-installed POM ball joints, left and right adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts, and two Vertex 2.5 rear shocks. Read through the exclusion list first, since Classic-body, Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, and diesel trucks are outside this application. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available for planning the job.
