About this kit
3.5-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 28830RED_A is a 3.5-inch lift kit for compatible 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 models in 4WD and RWD. The kit pairs red forged aluminum upper control arms with an N3 shock pair and raises the rear 2.5 inches for a level stance. Installation requires cutting and drilling, and the kit does not fit Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, or diesel models.
This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 covers the Elevation, Pro, SLE, and SLT submodels listed in the fitment section, in both 4WD and RWD. Front lift measures 3.5 inches with 2.5 inches at the rear. The forged aluminum upper control arms use POM ball joints that arrive already pressed in, and an N3 shock pair ships in the same kit box. Confirm your trim against the exclusion list — Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, and diesel applications are not covered — then work through the downloadable Rough Country installation guide before you start.
