Tuff Country 97034 Block & Ubolt Kit - 2" (H) x 2 1/2" (W) x 4 1/2" (L) Non-Tapered
Product Details
Description
Lift the rear of your GMC Suburban with the Tuff Country 97034 Block & U-bolt Kit, a purpose-built solution for 4WD GM trucks and SUVs. This 2" rear lift kit is designed to preserve a factory-like ride while giving you a confident stance and extra clearance for payloads or larger tires.
- Lift Height: Raises the rear by 2" to level the stance and improve load handling on GMC Suburban and compatible GM 4WD models.
- Block Type: Non-tapered lift blocks measuring 2" (H) x 2 1/2" (W) x 4 1/2" (L) for a stable, even lift.
- Material: Heavy‑duty cast iron blocks (with the option for aluminum blocks in some kits) built for durability under load and over time.
- U-bolts: Extended zinc‑plated rear ubolts designed specifically for the GMC Suburban to maintain secure axletube fitment after lifting.
- Hardware & Fitment: Includes lift blocks and u-bolts for rear axle installation on 1988–1998 GM trucks and SUVs with 4WD, including Suburban, Tahoe, and K-series models. Note: Designed for rear axles only; front-axle use is not advised.
- Shocks Compatibility: For most 2" lift applications, factory-length shocks should be replaced with extended-length shocks to maintain proper damping and ride quality.
- Simple Bolt‑on Installation: Install by placing the cast lift blocks between the rear leaf springs and axle, then secure with the extended ubolts for a straightforward, bolt-on upgrade.
The 2" rear lift from the Tuff Country Block & U-bolt Kit is engineered to deliver a balanced, factory-like ride while providing the extra clearance needed for heavier loads or minor cosmetic stance tweaks. It’s a reliable, purpose-built upgrade for GMC Suburban and related GM trucks in the late 80s through the late 90s, designed to fit the rear axle geometry of 4WD models and built to withstand road and off-road use. This kit helps you achieve a more level rear profile without compromising ride quality, with components selected to endure for long-term usage.
