This kit is easy to install and makes the stance of my Silverado look great. I installed the same kit on my previous truck and had no issues with it. Any DIYer can install this kit themselves but a wheel alignment IS necessary after installation.

The Rough Country leveling kit proved to be an excellent addition to my truck, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits. Once installed, it gave my truck a clean and attractive level appearance, enhancing its overall look. The installation instructions provided were clear and easy to follow, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free process. I was impressed with the solid construction of the leveling kit, which felt durable and capable of withstanding rough driving conditions. However, a drawback I encountered was that the installation process was a bit challenging to do alone. Having an extra set of hands would have been beneficial, especially during certain steps that required more assistance. Despite this minor inconvenience, the leveling kit lived up to its promises and transformed the appearance of my truck, making it a worthwhile purchase for truck owners seeking a level and appealing stance.

This kit fit perfectly as advertised for my truck. It’s not overly difficult to install either, I followed a YouTube video on this product and it helped me get it done fairly easily. This product made my truck completely level as advertised and it looks a lot better as well. I don’t do much heavy towing so I was looking to get rid of the factory rake on my truck. The truck rides the same with this product it’s still smooth down the road and I don’t notice a difference in handling. This product is made of heavy duty plastic material so it will not rust. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to level out your truck.

I installed this 2” levelling kit on my 2014 Sierra SLE (white truck on the pictures), and definitely saw an instant improvement in both ground clearance and look. My son has a 2019 Silverado RST and my truck’s nose used to be significantly lower than his. Now they are almost even (see pictures). I love it.The installation was actually easy. As described by many other commenters, I did not exactly follow all the installation steps which are written to install both bolts head down on a 4WD configuration. Instead, if you install one bolt head up (the one on the drive shaft side) and you have someone to help insert the bolts while you pry and hold the strut up, you can install this kit by only loosening the sway bar attachement bolt on both side. The bolt installed head up (drive shaft side) needs to be trimmed by about 3/8” to clear the drive shaft when installed. When trimmed, the overall length of that bolt works out to be the same as the original bolt. No need to loosen any other bolts and components. Make sure that you are really careful when prying the strut up using the upper control arm to ensure that you don’t damage any part, wire, or attachment.

Great product and fast shipping. I love the way my truck looks now. It is leveled exactly how I wanted and will allow me to get larger size tires on now. I live in West Tennessee and the product arrived in 2 days. The leveling kit came with all the necessary parts and instructions to complete the installation yourself. I would say my mechanical knowledge is a little above average. I had this installed on my 2010 Chevy Silverado in under 2 hours. I recommend watching some youtube videos on how to install this leveling kit prior to actually doing it yourself. It took me a little over an hour to do the driver side and right at 30 minutes to do the passenger side. Definitely make sure you have a good jack and some jack stands to support or catch the truck should the jack fail. Also make sure you read the directions and pay close attention to the tools needed to perform the job prior to starting on it. I had all the tools I needed(couple of wrenches, a allen wrench, a screw driver, and a pry bar) but it would be annoying to not have the proper size wrench or allen wrench. If you can rotate the tires on your truck you should have no difficulty installing this leveling kit. After the leveling kit was put on I took the truck to a local tire shop to have the wheels aligned. I coudnt tell any difference in the driving characteristics from before or after the alignment but its still a good idea any time you adjust your suspension to have an alignment done. If you wonder how much a shop might charge to do this job for you. The estimates I kept getting from shops was 300 dollars. So I recommend if you have a friend that can help you with the job. That is great and will make the process much faster. If you do not have anyone that can help you. You can still do the job yourself it just might take a little longer. But the price and look is well worth your time and money.

Title says it all!!Tonight I finished installing my 2" Rough Country leveling kit that I got off of Amazon for $66 with shipping. Must I say after a 30 minute drive home IM PLEASED... EXTREMELY PLEASED..I love my truck too much to mess something up and didnt wanna spend the money for professionals to do it but I figured what the heck, 100% bolt on no special tools required but 1 wrench (15mm), 2 deep sockets (15mm & 18mm) , a crescent wrench, and a 7/32 allen wrench. Lets proceed.First off the kit comes with 2 spacers, 4 bolts, 8 washers, 4 nuts, instructions, rough country advertising sticker, and a yellow rough country warning sticker to put either on the inside of the door alongside the other factory spec sticker(s), in the glove box, or in the engine compartment; choice is yours but its bright and notifies anyone working on the truck or future owner that there is a modification.Now on to my clarifications for ease of installment. I followed the youtube video "2010 Rough Country Leveling Kit Install" TO THE TEE! However when trying to pry the strut up there was an extreme amount of pressure and it just felt as though someone was gonna get hurt. Didnt feel normal. Well after about an hour of trying to watch every moving part while prying and also trying to observe what is happening as well as "what needs to happen" ..FINALLY WE SPOTTED THE PROBLEM... we noticed one important step missing in the video instructions that would make the install go from 1.5 hours to 20 minutes tops GUARANTEED, WHICH IS JUST OUR OPINION. But if somehow you were able to get it by watching the video in this post and following those steps then most likely your here reading this because you broke something or messed something up and want to know of that easier way you could have done it.In the video they stated loosening and leaving the sway bar bolt loose. For us this was humanly impossible to pry the strut far enough away from the lower control arm to slip the spacer in safely. We simply unscrewed the top nut and removed it completely from the sway bar but left the bolt in place. Giving you MUCH more room to move strut up and down. Next we easily picked the strut up away from the control arm and placed the spacer in place and wiggled the pry bar back and forth to align holes to accept bolts. We used a small vertical hydraulic jack to crank the lower control arm up to allow bolt for sway bar to protrude through enough for nut to catch.Your also going to need the 7/32 allen to keep the ball joint from spinning when tightening your control arm nut. Also FYI the other side took us 12 minutes TIMED!!! Trust me just just remove the to nut completely from the sway bar. Now that we are finished and see the bigger picture of what we needed to do I consider this install a very very simple install probably a 2 or 3 out of 5 on a 10 scale of difficulty.Going check alignment first thing in the morning hope you all find this post helpful. I don't ever post on anything but figured my two cents may save someone an hour of daylight. PLEASE GIVE THUMBS UP IF THIS REVIEW HELPED IN ANY WAY! Thanks God bless.Update 4/5/2017: Since I first wrote this article, I have since installed this kit on 3 separate trucks that I've owned: 2011 Chevrolet Silverado LT 2WD, 2011 GMC Yukon SLT 2WD, and 2008 GMC Sierra SLE. All were equally easy and came out nice! Rough Country is the way to go! Dont settle for anything less!!
