About this kit

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

Rough Country 22657 is a 3.5-inch lift kit for compatible 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 models, with 2.5 inches of rear lift to balance the stance. The kit pairs Vertex 2.5 adjustable front struts with a V2 monotube rear shock pair and forged aluminum upper control arms. It does not fit 2019 Classic, Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, or diesel trucks.

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 combines Vertex 2.5 adjustable front struts, a V2 monotube rear shock pair, and forged aluminum upper control arms with pre-installed POM ball joints. Front height goes up 3.5 inches against 2.5 inches at the rear, which levels the factory rake and opens up clearance underneath. Confirm your trim before ordering: 2019 Classic trucks on the 2018 body style, Denali and Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, and diesel-powered models are all outside this application. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available.
