Product Details
Description
Elevate your 2006 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD (and Silverado 1500 4WD) with the Tuff Country 14961 4-inch lift kit—an engineered bolt-on upgrade that adds rugged stance, bigger tire capability, and dependable off-road performance.
- Lift Height: 4" front and 4" rear lift designed to accommodate 33" x 12.5" tires with 4.5" backspacing or less.

- Three-Piece Sub-Frame: Innovative 3-piece sub-frame design for easier setup and alignment during installation.
- Shocks Included: Includes extended shocks tailored for the lift; factory-length shocks must be replaced with extended units for proper fitment.
- Rim & Tire Compatibility: Requires rims with 4.5" backspacing or less; not compatible with Stabilitrak-equipped models.
- Warranty & Support: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty; backed by Tuff Country's decades of suspension expertise.
- Installation & Craftsmanship: Simple bolt-on installation with robust components designed to endure off-road use and daily driving.
- Vehicle Fitment: Specifically tuned for 2006 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD and 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD, with precise mounting points and clear compatibility notes.
This kit transforms your truck’s stance and capability—delivering the clearance needed for bigger tires without compromising on-road manners. The knuckle-driven design helps maintain steering feel, while the three-piece sub-frame and included extended shocks streamline the installation. With a proven track record from a brand with over 25 years in suspension, and a lifetime-backed warranty, this Tuff Country lift kit is a practical, reliable upgrade for enthusiasts who want confident performance both on trails and everyday drives.
