About this kit
3.5-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 28850 is a 3.5-inch lift kit for supported 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 models in 4WD and RWD, pairing 3.5 inches of front height with 2.5 inches at the rear. The box carries forged aluminum upper control arms with pre-installed POM ball joints, adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts for left and right, and a pair of Vertex 2.5 rear shocks.
This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2019-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 covers Base, Elevation, Pro, SLE, and SLT applications, plus the 2022 Sierra 1500 Limited trims listed in the fitment section. Check the exclusions first: it is not for the 2019 Classic body style, Denali or Denali Ultimate models with Adaptive Ride Control, AT4 or AT4X models carrying a 2-inch factory lift, or diesel trucks, since the replacement struts are matched to gas engine weight. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available to walk through the strut and control arm swap before you start.
