Rough Country 1.5-2" Leveling Lift Kit for 99-06 Chevy/GMC 1500-28330

Product was good quality and easy to install nice level lift will go over if you put the bolts back to where they where originally rides better than prior I leveled mine out all in all a good lift NOTE you use your original bolts for the shocks photos of it stock and after level

Great kit for the price, also pretty user friendly average person can install with hand tools and jackstands.Also need a torsion key removal tool,Shocks are soft for my liking but it does ride nicely. Recommend rough country upper control arms or similar, the alignment shop couldn’t get caster 100% because the camber can’t be adjusted enough with the oem uppers.

Easy to install stall. Would recommend if installing on the ground. Since not everyone has a lift. Having a bottle jack makes easier install on rear blocks. Use jack between bump stop point to spread apart. And do one side at a time to not let axle roll.

Highly recommend this kit to anyone on the fence. It’s very easy to install, make sure you buy a torsion bar unloading tool, the c clamp version works perfectly, the tool can get in the way of torsion bar adjustment bolt so make sure you have an open end 18mm wrench handy or a wobble socket. I had access to a lift since I am a technician and all in all took me about 45 minutes total to install the entire kit, no need to take off any of the wheels for installation. No one really talks about the quality of the n3 shocks, but the ride is pretty harsh with them, some people recommend pairing the kit with bilsteins, however I enjoy rough riding vehicles so it worked out well for me. As far as alignment goes, the front wheels will be slightly toed out after installation so an alignment is needed, but you can still get around for a lil while just fine. I bought this kit so I could have more ground clearance to get around on my ranch and it is perfect. Thanks rough country!

I wanted some lift to accomplish two things: 1) Make my 4x4 actually look like one (come on GM...Z71's used to be high enough as a stock pickup) and 2) keep my 285/75/16's (33's) from rubbing (this kit accomplished a third thing by including shocks which replaced 12 year old originals). So I got the shocks replaced as a bonus.....sweet.Now let me clarify a few things.1) You don't need a "Torsion bar removal tool", but I could see how it would be safer. I ordered it, but returned it to Amazon after reading the directions included in the kit (tools needed section recommended a Ball Joint Remover like OTC 7249 which Autozone lets you rent for a $100 deposit and you get it back when tool is returned).I used the Ball Joint remover, but it wanted to slip out under the pressure so I improvised..... The cross member holding the Torsion Keys has a hole on top of it conveniently at the exact place you set the Ball Joint Remover. I simply put a stubby screwdriver inside the hole of the BJR and the stubby shaft went into that hole on the cross member (this locked the top of the BJR in place keeping it from slipping). The rest was a piece of cake. Simply crank up the key to remove the bolt / nut block / key and reinstall new key. Then reverse it to install new keys. Simple.2) Tools needed section states you need an 18 mm socket (torsion key adjuster bolt), 21 mm socket (shocks / U bolts) which was true. What's not mentioned is the 22 mm socket for the new U bolt nuts.3) The new blocks have a nipple that must line up with the hole on the axle bracket (also the new blocks are tapered so that the front of vehicle side is shorter than the rear side).3a) Instructions call for removal of wheels, shocks, etc. SAVE TIME AND DO THIS ON REAR....** While on a level surface, craw under the bed and remove one side of the U-bolts and shock. Get a jack and place it directly under the leaf spring. Lift the leaf spring until the gap is big enough to slide the block in. Lower the leaf spring and attach the new U-bolts and tighten. Repeat on other side. Seriously, it takes about 15-20 minutes using an impact wrench.4) As far as the ride......well, I can't tell much difference other than it feels more like it has better shocks to stiffen it up. I don't think it's rough by any means. Just stiffer. Is that shock or is that a rougher ride? I don't know, but I'll take it.5) This kit does not include shock boots...FYI.Hey I hope this helps you guys "pull the trigger" on this kit. I am really satisfied with the new look of my old pickup. I wish I would've done it sooner. It's a daily driver / family truck so don't expect this lift to satisfy your "Monster" truck aspirations. Time will tell if the new CV angles will be an issue, but Parts Geek . com has em for $54 so I'm not too concerned.Enjoy your new stance...
