About this kit

3-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 95850RED lifts the 2020-2026 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD/3500HD by 3 inches and comes matched with Vertex 2.5 shocks front and rear. Red forged upper control arms ship with the ball joints already pressed in. This version is not for trucks with a rear overload spring, and it skips dually, AT4X, and ZR2 applications.

Read the shock spec first on this 3-inch lift kit for the 2020-2026 Silverado and Sierra 2500HD/3500HD: the box pairs 2 Vertex 2.5 front units rated at 3.5 in with 2 Vertex 2.5 rear units covering a 3.5-7.5 in range, alongside red forged upper control arms and the no-shock lift hardware. Differential drop brackets keep axle angles nearer factory. Everything bolts on with no cutting and can be reversed to stock height. Rear overload spring, dually, AT4X, and ZR2 trucks are excluded; the AT4X and ZR2 carry a 1.5-inch factory lift. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available.
