Description

Raise the rear of your 2001–2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 4WD or GMC Sierra 2500HD 4WD with the Tuff Country 97024 Block & U-bolt Kit. This bolt‑on kit delivers a 4-inch rear lift for a more commanding stance and increased ground clearance while preserving a practical, factory‑like ride.

  • Lift height: 4 inches of rear lift for added stance and clearance
  • Block material: Heavy‑duty lift blocks (cast iron in this kit; some kits in the lineup may use aluminum blocks)
  • Block dimensions: 4" (H) x 2 1/4" (W) x 6 1/2" (L)
  • U-bolt set: Extended zinc‑plated rear u-bolts, 5/8" x 2 3/4" x 14" (square vehicle pattern)
  • Hardware included: Nuts and washers to complete a bolt‑on installation
  • Vehicle fitment: 2001–2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 4WD and 2001–2010 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4WD
  • Installation: Bolt‑on method; lift blocks insert between the factory rear leaf springs and axle
  • Shocks note: For blocks 2" tall or taller, extended‑length shocks are typically required; check compatibility with existing shocks
  • Design scope: Rear‑axle only; not suitable for front axles

The 97024 kit is built to withstand real‑world use, combining durable lift blocks with corrosion‑resistant hardware to handle daily driving, towing, and light off‑roading. It’s an ideal upgrade for Silverado 2500HD and Sierra 2500HD owners looking to achieve a balanced, more aggressive rear stance, accommodate modest tire upgrades, or improve loading angle when hauling trailers. With a straightforward bolt‑on installation, you can achieve a noticeable rear lift without a chassis‑level overhaul, while knowing the components are designed to stand up to road and jobsite conditions.
