Product Details
Description
Upgrade your classic GM 4x4 with the Tuff Country 14710KN 4" Lift Kit. Built for 1/2-ton 4WD GM trucks and SUVs from 1973 to 1987, it delivers a balanced blend of lifted stance, rugged capability, and street-friendly ride—all backed by Tuff Country’s heritage and a lifetime warranty.
- Lift height: 4-inch suspension lift designed to increase ground clearance and accommodate larger tires while maintaining factory feel on the road.
- EZ-Ride leaf springs: Advanced spring design for improved ride quality and load handling, plus Teflon pads to minimize noise and squeaking.
- Shocks included: SX8000 shocks are included to deliver responsive dampening across terrain and maintain stability during articulation.
- Rear blocks and hardware: Sturdy rear blocks paired with precise mounting hardware for reliable axle positioning and ride consistency.
- Steering arm: Reinforced steering arm kit helps preserve steering geometry at higher ride heights for confident control.
- Vehicle fitment: Specifically compatible with 1973–1987 GM 4WD models (Blazer, Suburban K1500, Truck K1500, and GMC equivalents) on gasoline engines; will not fit diesel engine models.
- Tire compatibility: Optimized to run up to 33" x 12.5" tires, balancing clearance with steering and handling.
- Installation: Average install time is 4–6 hours, making this a practical upgrade for weekend wrenchers with the right tools.
- Warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, reflecting durability and long-term value.
This kit pairs precise engineering with practical performance: a lifted, capable stance for off-road adventures, improved approach/departure angles, and a ride that remains comfortable on daily commutes. EZ-Ride springs reduce noise and deliver a smoother feel over rough pavement, while the SX8000 shocks keep damping consistent as you navigate rocky trails or highway sweeps. If you’re restoring a classic Chevy or GMC 4x4 to its prime or building a reliable weekend warrior, this Tuff Country lift kit provides a proven, durable solution with real-world benefits.
