Product Details
Description
The Tuff Country 12610KN 2" Lift Kit with EZ-Ride Front Springs and Rear Blocks with SX8000 Shocks is a comprehensive 4WD suspension upgrade designed for classic GM trucks and sport utility vehicles from 1969–1972. Built for reliability and a smoother ride, it’s ideal for enthusiasts seeking a modest lift that preserves on-road comfort while expanding off-road capability.
- Lift Height: 2" front lift and 3" rear lift achieved with front EZ-Ride leaf springs and rear cast iron blocks for balanced, confident handling.
- Shocks Included: 2 SX8000 shocks included to deliver improved damping and a controlled, composed ride both on and off the trail.
- EZ-Ride Front Leaf Springs: Engineered for a quieter, more stable ride with Teflon pads to minimize noise and squeaking.
- Rear Blocks: 2" cast iron rear lift blocks designed to maintain proper axle positioning and ride quality.
- U-Bolts & Hardware: Includes 4 front and 4 rear U-bolts plus two hardware bags for a complete installation.
- Brake Line Extension Kit: Ensures safe brake line articulation and proper clearance after installation.
- Front Leaf Spring Eye Bolts: Four eye bolts included for secure mounting and alignment.
- Finish & Build: Black powder-coated components for durability and corrosion resistance in rugged environments.
- Warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, reflecting Tuff Country’s decades of suspension expertise.
- Compatibility & Fit: Specifically designed for 1969–1972 Chevy/GMC 4WD models (Blazer/Suburban/Truck/Jimmy) with a factory ride preserved and room for up to 32" tires (32" x 10.5" recommended).
- Installation Note: Factory length shocks must be replaced with extended shocks to install this kit properly.
With over 35 years of suspension experience, Tuff Country engineers this kit to deliver the best combination of off-road durability and comfortable on-road feel. The EZ-Ride springs and SX8000 shocks work together to replicate a factory-like ride while enabling a capable stance for 32" tires, keeping daily driving predictable and off-road performance ready.
