Description
The Tuff Country 14712K 4-inch Lift Kit delivers a durable, value-focused suspension upgrade designed for classic GM 4x4s. It’s ideal for owners of 1973–1987 Chevy Blazer, Suburban (K1500 4WD), and GMC trucks/Jimmys who want extra ground clearance and the versatility to run larger tires, without breaking the bank.
- Lift Height: 4 inches of overall lift to improve ground clearance and provide room for larger tires.

- Rear Blocks: Rear axle blocks designed to maintain proper geometry and load distribution after lifting.
- Steering Arm: Included steering arm to preserve steering geometry and control with the raised stance.
- Shocks: Shocks not included — use your existing shocks or pair with aftermarket shocks for the ride you want.
- Noise Reduction: Teflon pads help eliminate noise and squeaking for a smoother, quieter ride.
- Fitment: Designed for 1973–1987 GM 4WD models (Chevy Blazer, Suburban K1500, Truck K1500; GMC Jimmy/Truck); will not fit diesel engine models and is intended for 1/2‑ton configurations.
- Install Time: Average installation is typically 4–6 hours, depending on your setup and tools available.
- Tire Compatibility: Accommodates up to 33" x 12.5" tires with proper clearance and alignment.
- Warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty on leaf springs and lift components for long-term reliability.
The result is a balanced, capable upgrade that increases ground clearance and tire compatibility without compromising handling. The 14712K kit enhances load support and stability, making it a practical choice for enthusiasts who want a reliable lift with genuine Tuff Country engineering and a proven track record. Pair it with thoughtful maintenance and proper alignment, and you’ll enjoy improved stance, improved approach angles, and the versatility to tackle tougher terrain with confidence.
