Product Details
Description
Raise your 1988–1991 Chevy Suburban K2500 4WD (and GMC Suburban K2500 4WD) with a dependable 2-inch lift kit from Tuff Country. The 12741KN kit combines EZ-Ride front springs, 52" rear springs, and SX8000 shocks to deliver improved ground clearance, better tire fitment, and durable, long-term performance.
- Lift Height: 2" front-to-rear lift designed to improve stance and clearance without drastically changing Ride Height.
- EZ-Ride Front Springs: Front leaf springs engineered for a smoother ride, with Teflon pads to minimize noise and squeaks.
- Rear Springs: 52" long rear leaf springs tuned for stable load handling and improved weight distribution.
- Shocks Included: SX8000 shocks provide dependable damping for on- and off-road confidence.
- Tire Compatibility: Supports up to 32" x 10.5" tires for added traction and a more capable profile.
- Vehicle Compatibility: Fits 1988–1991 Chevy Suburban K2500 4WD and 1988–1991 GMC Suburban K2500 4WD (3/4-ton models; will not fit diesel engines).
- Complete Kit Components: Includes front EZ-Ride springs, 52" rear springs, SX8000 shocks, mounting hardware, and necessary brackets for a complete install.
- Warranty: Limited lifetime warranty on leaf springs and on lift kits, reflecting Tuff Country’s commitment to durability and long-term value.
- Installation Time: Typical install ranges from 4 to 6 hours, depending on fitment and mechanic experience.
This kit is built for drivers who want a confident, lifted look with practical off-road capability while preserving daily drivability. EZ-Ride technology reduces road noise and harshness, while the long rear springs maintain stable load support. With a lifetime warranty and a straightforward installation, it’s a thoughtful upgrade for suburbans that see weekend getaways and light trail use alike. The 2" lift also enhances stance for improved approach angles and tire clearance without compromising factory alignment principles.
