About this kit

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

Rough Country 28830RED is a 3.5-inch front lift kit for compatible 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 models in 4WD and RWD, pairing red forged upper control arms with an N3 shock pair. Rear lift measures 2.5 inches, so the truck sits level front to rear. It does not fit 2019 "Classic" models, Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, or AT4X trims, and the strut options are not for diesel trucks.

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 covers Base, Elevation, Pro, SLE, and SLT trims in both 4WD and RWD, plus the 2022 Sierra 1500 Limited applications listed in the fitment section. The box ships with red forged aluminum upper control arms, an N3 shock pair, and the universal kit box hardware; POM ball joints come pre-installed in the arms. Check the exclusion list first — Classic body-style, Denali, Denali Ultimate, AT4, AT4X, and diesel trucks are all out. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available for planning the job.
