About this kit

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

Rough Country 28070 is a 6-inch lift kit for the 2000–2006 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, and 2002–2006 Cadillac Escalade platforms listed in the fitment section. Front-valved N3 series shocks are part of the package. Frame bracket modification is part of the job, and it does not fit Auto Ride or Auto Leveling models.

This 6-inch lift kit for the 2000–2006 Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon also covers Yukon XL 1500 and 2500 in 4WD and RWD, plus the Escalade, Escalade ESV, and Escalade EXT applications shown in the fitment table. The boxed kit ships as an NTD crossmember assembly, 6-inch NTD brackets, a V2 kit box with rear spacers, driver and passenger knuckles, and a V2 monotube shock pair. Torsion bars stay in their factory location and axle position is unchanged. Read the exclusions and tool requirements below, then pull the downloadable Rough Country installation guide before you start.
