About this kit

3.5-Inch Lift Kit with M1 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 97540RED is a 3.5-inch lift kit for 2011–2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD/3500 HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD/3500 HD, in both 4WD and RWD. The kit pairs red forged aluminum upper control arms with two M1 monotube shock pairs. It does not fit dually models, and Magnetic Ride Control trucks are excluded.

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2011–2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD/3500 HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD/3500 HD raises the front on forged torsion bar keys and red forged aluminum upper control arms with rubber bushings, keeping ball joint angles close to factory geometry. Two M1 monotube shock pairs handle damping front and rear. Tire clearance runs up to 33 inches. Installation is bolt-on with common hand tools, with no cutting or drilling, and the setup can be returned to stock height later. Confirm the rear overload spring and Magnetic Ride Control qualifiers in the fitment notes, and a torsion bar removal tool (1067) makes the job easier.

What’s in the box

Kit contents

Priced components are sold separately here, so a worn shock or arm can be replaced on its own later.

Rough Country shares subassemblies across kits, so individual package labels can carry broader application ranges. The complete 97540RED kit fits the vehicles shown in the fitment section above.
