Installing 2007-2013 GM 1500 7.5-inch Suspension Lift Kit by Rough Country

[@RyanFrasier-d2k]

Just want to say that i just did this lift on my buddies truck. Good luck getting the knuckle and top control arm to connect. I was 2 inches away and thought they sent the wrong struts. We used the 7.5 lift struts instead of spacers. I called rough country and ran all part numbers. I finally got it but had to use strut compressors. Pretty sure i almost met god, but i did get it.

[@midwestcatz5896]

7.5" lift kit in 20 mins .. now that's a fast install

[@nickrossi6821]

I had a miserable time getting the upper control arm into the knuckle after the lower ball joint was installed. I had to use ratchet straps to pull the control arms towards each other just to get enough thread on the upper ball joint to grab it and suck it into the knuckle. I didn’t loosen the upper control arm during install, it would have most likely been easier that way, but there was barely any compression in the strut/spring assy to allow for installation

[@tnuc1446]

Need new a arms I bet ur tires wore on the inside

[@Iflagum]

If your going to cut the outer tie rods why not replace them with something you can grease. As this stuff gets older I see that as a problem. I would have included new inner and outer ends in the kit. Pretty cool otherwise. Sounds like it would fit a Tahoe as well?

[@russellschroeder990]

I couldn’t agree more . I’m getting ready to install a RC 6” lift by myself. I already have the kit but I am replacing cv shafts hub bearings all bushing’s etc while I have it apart.

[@keithnichols7339]

8-10 hours the direction say...2.5 days in the average joe garage, even with a sufficiently full set of tools and that's assuming you don't sleep the first night. If you want to get this done in 8-10 hours, they should ship that second dude to you in the box so he can hold everything while you unbolt it. The main dude in the video barely has grease on his hands. By the end of of day one, the bums outside of the auto parts store didn't want to get near me because I looked too dirty.

[@whuttontarnation2484]

Does this require major modification or could this easily be changed out to a smaller lift? I’m looking at a truck with this kit but the lift is too high

[@jordanbeissel9734]

It's a 1 time lift. Theres too much modification. There's no removing it once installed.

[@HEATHACORDLE]

I have a 2011 z71 with the 7.5" lift kit, and was to the understanding that the stock upper control arms are ok to use, but I have gone through 2 sets of upper ball joints (moog) since installing (less than 30k miles). Should I use a different style upper control arm?

[@keysautorepair6038]

Moog used to be top of the line not anymore they are garbage best to get oem.

[@Coted1988]

Hey what did you end up doing? I have extended uppers for my leveling kit.. I'm wondering if the extended uppers will be okay to use with the new knuckles or if I need to use the stock ones..

[@audioa7739]

I was wanting to purchase your forged upper control arms but in the description it states, Does NOT fit models with 5, 6, or 7.5 inch suspension lift kits. In a response here to another comment, you said it will. Can I get an answer on whether it will fit or not?

[@nateyg96]

Currently have this kit on, with no sway bar at all, to put one on, do y’all sell extended end links so I don’t have to drill?

[@KaliBlaz]

Can’t you guys come up with a hardware design that does not require any cutting?

[@RoughCountryTV]

That would be hard to do since we have to drop the diff so much to and have to trim for proper clearance.

[@rcairforceone]

It's basic physics really... 2 things cannot both occupy the same space at once. If you think this is bad, find some old 4x4 magazines and look at what it took to install early IFS suspension lifts. None of the cutting in this kit compromises strength of the chassis. The one single change I'd like to see would be a single piece crossmember. As far as I know there's only one company doing that, and their kit costs twice what this one does. This will be the kit I install on my truck when the time comes.

[@trunkbangking]

Mcgaughys lift..no cutting full 7 inch drop crossmember.

[@internationalhunter2839]

The cutting is the easiest part.....

[@1badk20]

trunkbangking......You still have to cut the crossmember like every other kit. There is no way around not cutting it, the diff will hit no matter what. You would have to drop the diff almost 15 inches to clear the crossmember bracket. You obviously do not own the kit, so how about doing research before you comment. Step 11 in the McGaughys SS 7-9" Lift 11. On the PASSENGER side lower a-arm frame mount you will need to cut off 3 1/2”. Using a marker and a straight edge, measure and mark 3 1/2” from the edge of the frame mount inward and then cut with a sawzall.

[@davidg8646]

where the front cross member is installed the upper bolts where you cut your better off welding each side it makes craking noices like hell dont know if i had wrong bolts or what threads are 1/2” inside the plate making cross member slide

[@joetaylor2886]

Can I run a 33 12 50?

[@SeriousnessLOL]

Had this lift installed on my 08 1500 vortex Max. Pushed the breaks real hard to keep from hitting a girl running across the road. Driveshaft ended up popping out too much and when I stopped putting so much force on the break the driveshaft tried going back in but ended up destroying the slip yoke and tranny had to be replaced/rebuilt. The tranny shop said I needed a 2 inch spacer but another truck/lift shop said there’s no need for a spacer, maybe the shop that installed the lift put the blocks on backwards? SO I wanted to know if I need a spacer or a word with the guys who lifted my truck....

[@RoughCountryTV]

The bigger end of the block should be the rear of the vehicle. Is that the way it was installed? Do you have a 1 piece or 2 piece rear drive shaft?

[@SeriousnessLOL]

Rough Country the blocks are installed correctly and I have a one piece driveshaft. My trucks is a 2wd

[@kingofhearts4395]

I just picked up my 7.5 lift for my 08 GMC 1500 yesterday Tue/April/6th and I am so disappointed in it that I will be returning it. I got the old styel strut spacers, the ones that had the problems with the welds cracking when tightening the bolts and not the new styel ones, You guys really cut corners on the welding of the components, their should have been more welds, And I have never seen orange peel on powder coating so even the powder coating is the shits. I would be scared to even put this lift on my truck.

[@RoughCountryTV]

It appears you might have just received a bad part as that is not common on our spacers to not be sufficiently welded or manufactured. We would be glad to send you a replacement pair if you gave us a call at 1-800-222-7023

This lift was installed on a truck that I just bought, but the camber is way off on my tires if I get your longer upper control arms would that bring it back out instead of using the stock upper control arms because they rub the coil springs.

I have a 2008 Silverado 1500 that I bought that came with a 4 inch suspension lift and I added a strut spacer so basically a leveling kit to make it a 6 inch lift now my CV angles are at an angle and was told I need to drop the front diff down more but called rough country and the front diff block spacers are the same for a 4 inch lift and the 6 inch lift? A suspension shop told me I had to just take the lift off because there was nothing I could do. I just didn’t get how a 4 inch lift and a 6 inch lift use the same size of front diff drop bracket and how the CV angles wouldn’t be different then with the larger lift ?

[@RoughCountryTV]

You have created the CV axle issue by adding the level kit to the 4" kit. Your best bet is to replace the 4" strut spacers with the 6" strut spacer to correct the geometry and removing the level spacer.

[@MrRedsox2012]

even for a 6 inch lift kit will they be cutting and if the cutting is necessary won't that weaken the frame or something

[@RoughCountryTV]

You cut the tie rods and tie rod ends, crossmember pockets and diff but with this kit installed per instructions and the cutting that is needed to be done it does not jeopardize the integrity of the strength of the vehicle or frame.

[@jsmc2104]

I believe the only difference between the 6" kit and the 7.5" kit is the rear blocks, u-bolts, and strut spacers.

[@RoughCountryTV]

Yes. In order to properly align the vehicle you will have to trim the tie rods and sleeves on the knuckle kits.

[@SuperKick3r]

Rough Country but my instructions don't say to do that?

[@sixonebubble]

Yes. Just did mine. Instructions say cut 3/8" from inner and outer tie rod. I ended up cutting 1/2" on driver side for a little more toe in alignment.

Can you run 35x12.5x20x9"on factory rims with no trimming to inner or outer fender well with this lift.

Using a marker and a straight edge, measure and mark 3 1/2” from the edge of the frame mount inward and then cut with a sawzall.

Strixx could I take my rough country lift off and install my 7-9 McGaughys without any problems?

[@1badk20]

Yes you can. It will more or less bolt up without issue. I have personally never done this, but my shop has many of times.
