Product Details
Description
The Tuff Country 16741KN 6" Lift Kit is a complete suspension upgrade designed for 1988–1991 Chevy Suburban K2500 4WD and GMC Suburban K2500 4WD. It combines EZ-Ride front springs, 52" rear springs, a steering arm, and SX8000 shocks to deliver a taller, more capable ride with confident off-road performance.
- Lift Height: 6 inches of front lift to increase ground clearance and create a bold, lifted stance
- EZ-Ride Front Springs: front leaf springs with Teflon pads to minimize noise and squeaking for a smoother ride
- 52" Rear Springs: long rear springs tuned to maintain ride quality and load capacity at the lifted height
- Steering Arm with SX8000 Shocks: integrated steering arm and SX8000 shocks for improved damping and steering control
- Tire Compatibility: enables use of up to 35" x 12.5" tires for enhanced traction and flexibility
- Engine Compatibility: recommended for small block gasoline engines only; will not fit diesel engine models
- Install Time: typically 5–7 hours for a complete, street-ready installation
- Warranty: limited lifetime warranty on the EZ-Ride leaf springs for long-term reliability
The kit is engineered to preserve ride quality while delivering the benefits of a taller stance, including improved approach/departure angles and better capability on uneven terrain. Noise reduction from Teflon pads and the dependable damping from SX8000 shocks work together to keep daily driving comfortable, while the 35" tire allowance provides greater traction and off-road versatility. Backed by Tuff Country’s reputation and a limited lifetime warranty on the leaf springs, this lift kit offers a practical balance of performance, value, and peace of mind for Suburban enthusiasts.
