Installed on a 04 Chevy 1500, Instructions were extremely clear, there is even YouTube tutorials to follow along with as well, paired with a torsion bar tool in my other reviews this thing went together like butter, considering I'm also located in a rust valley. I had no issues with this kit. 10/10 Definitely going to be supporting Rough Country more. There products are awesome & they throw in some freebie Stickers & Banners.

This lift kit worked great on my 2004 Chevrolet Silverado Z71. No problems or complaints so far. Made a difference on my truck's appearance. Not to bad on the install. I wouldn't say it was easy. I had a lift to get my truck off the ground and also changed out my upper and lower control arms which made it easy to slide my torsion bars forward to get the torsion keys out. The job is doable for all you DIY people, even without a lift and just using some floor Jacks and jack stands. It was worth it for me.Thanks!

Good price for what the product is. Did give me a bit more of that tire clearance. Took about 3.5 hrs to install. Rear blocks didn't make much of a difference. It is a rough ride. Rough country is the name and is the cheapest one available for all the fixings. My half ton rides like a one ton now tho. Would still recommend

Looks great. Rides really good considering I got it cranked up pretty high.The torshion keys in my truck were seized in pretty good. The whole torshion bar assembly ended up having to come out to cut the old keys off. So if you're going to have a garage install be prepared for 5 hours labor. All and all I am happy with the product and makes the truck look really good. Defenitly noticable that it has a small lift it. As you can see from the before and after pics the leveling kit really complements the truck without making it a pig on gas.

I LOVE this leveling kit. This is the first kit I have ever tried on one of my trucks and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out!! It really does a good job of getting the front end of my silverado up in the air and level which looks great! I believe the kit is pretty high quality even the shocks are better than what a lot of people say. Not sure how long they will last but they give a pretty good ride, not stiff at all. The hardest part about getting the keys on the torsion bars is beating the old rusted on ones off after that they go on easy. The rear blocks are really easy to put in and the replacement U bolts fit perfectly. I HIGHLY recommend buying the replacement Moog upper control arms which compensate for the lift of the truck by allowing 2 extra degrees of camber adjustment so the truck can be aligned, BUY THEM!!! They are not that expensive. It sucks getting the old ones out but its worth it trust me! I would also recommend replacing all of the main front suspension and steering parts also (upper, lower control arms, wheel bearing, inner, outer tie rods, sway bar links) especially if the old silverado has over 100k miles because it will make your lift look a lot better and extend the life of the truck honestly. I have a 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500 Z71 and along with the lift replaced EVERY main component on the front end and it turned out great!! Buy this kit you will love it and take some of this info into consideration. You also get the sweet rough country logo to slap on the back window and also get the rough country shock boots also they work great and add an extra splash of color to the suspension!!

Items are exactly as described, Rough Country makes an amazing product and would highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve the stance of their truck. They provide everything you need with the exception of the torsion bar C clamp, definitely advise on purchasing one as it makes the installation much safer and easier. Only judge the installation time of 2-3 hrs if your vehicle doesn't have any rust and all parts remove freely. Do some research on how to remove the torsion bar keys as they have a history of seizing on the torsion bar. Had to use a cut off wheel to get mine off so installation time was much longer. Overall very satisfied with Rough Country Products!

I needed new shocks in my truck badly. For the price, I couldn't pass this kit up. I knew I was going to level it sooner or later to fit 285s, and this was the same price as most leveling kits without shocks. With that said, my expectations were rather low with these shocks. So I wasn't too terribly let down when I felt how they rode. These shocks really aren't that great (no surprises there, however). They ride a bit stiff but still feel uncontrolled and leave you with a lot of body roll. They are decent off road, but on road they just suck at handling in all aspects. With that said, this is a truck and it doesn't need to ride like a Mercedes. The quality of the kit as a whole is fantastic. The packaging was very nice, felt like I was unboxing a high-end lift kit. The parts all fit and feel extremely solid. So far, no signs of wear on any of the obvious parts. I do have a clunking sound in the rear, but I think I just need to replace some rubber and re torque everything. Or perhaps the driveshaft slip yoke needs some lube, but I digress. All-in all, this is a great kit that will perhaps tide you over until you can get some lifted Bilstein shocks. No regrets with this purchase, makes the truck look great and brings it to the height it should have been stock.

I have a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500, 4wd with the Z71 package.I bought this kit with some reservations of what 2" would really give me. I received the box, and it was packaged very nicely in form cut foam. It took me quite a while to install (north of 5 hours), however I did do it alone, with 2 jack stands and the stock vehicle jack (My harbor freight floor jack decided to crap out 2 days before). Power tools are extremely helpful along with air tools, and you'll want a mix of long and short sockets as well as wrenches. The rear is relatively simple, I found that ratchet straps come in handy for getting everything back into alignment. The front can present some more issues depending on how much rust you have on your truck. Mine wasn't that rusty, but the keys didn't want to come out easy. Heat and a big hammer is your friend here. The included shocks are a bonus and they seem a little bit stiffer than stock but co'mon, its a truck. I opted to order boots to go on the shocks but I don't believe this is required, just personal preference. After installing with stock tires, it looks nice and you can tell there's some more room in the wheel wells. I opted to buy rims and tires (BFG 285/75r16 and American Racing Bajas ) and they really make a difference. People think that its a 2500, not a lifted 1500. It looks great. The only downside is the ride is definitely stiffer but in a 10+ year old truck, you can't be too upset considering the visual results. I have used the 4wd since the install and have not found any problem with it's functionality. Make sure your CV boots/joints aren't at too stiff of an angle or you may experience some problems with longevity of them, but they're easy enough to replace (just say goodbye to your Saturday) and they are a dime a dozen at the scrapyard. The best part about this lift is the stickers, they give you one for each shock and a big one to go across your back window, and let me say wow. You can feel the HP gain that you get with those things, probably at least 50 if not more, by far worth the money never mind the lift.(Thats a joke for all you who are a few short of a six pack) I would 100% recommend to friends, but probably wouldn't buy again just because I now want to run 35's. This is a great price and Rough Country is a great company, maybe in the future I'll invest in their 6 inch lifts, but for now I love it.
