About this kit
3.5-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Struts, fitment-checked
Rough Country 22657RED is a 3.5-inch lift kit for supported 2019–2024 GMC Sierra 1500 models in 4WD and RWD, raising the front 3.5 inches and the rear 2.5 inches. The box holds red forged aluminum upper control arms, left and right Vertex 2.5 adjustable front struts, a strut kit box, and a V2 monotube shock pair. It does not fit 2019 Classic (2018 body style), Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, or diesel models.
This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2019–2024 GMC Sierra 1500 sets a 3.5-inch front lift against 2.5 inches at the rear, so the truck sits closer to level than stock. Forged aluminum upper control arms arrive with POM ball joints already pressed in, which shortens bench work in the driveway. Vertex 2.5 adjustable struts handle the front corners and a V2 monotube pair covers the rear. Check the exclusion list first — Classic, Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, and diesel trucks are out — then work through the downloadable Rough Country installation guide before you start.
