Rough Country 2in Aluminum Leveling Kit for 2007-2018 Chevy/GMC 1500 — Red T6061, 2in Front Lift Preserves Ride

Rough Country's 2" red aluminum leveling kit raises the front of 2007–2018 Chevy/GMC 1500 trucks two inches for improved clearance and a leveled stance without changing factory ride characteristics.

This billet aluminum leveling spacer is made to fit GM 1500 models (2007–2018) and gives owners a simple, reversible way to gain ground clearance, fit larger tires, and correct the factory rake. The kit is machined from T6061 aluminum for strength and corrosion resistance, ships in a bright red finish for style, and installs without the need to disassemble the struts—helpful for DIY mechanics and professional shops alike. Rough Country backs the kit with a limited lifetime replacement warranty.

How does this kit affect ride quality and handling?

The 2" spacer is engineered to maintain the truck's factory suspension geometry so you keep the original ride comfort and predictable handling. Because the struts remain assembled during installation, spring and damper alignment is preserved, reducing the chance of unexpected behavior on-road.

• Maintains factory-like ride and damping characteristics
• Preserves alignment and steering geometry when installed correctly
• Designed to work with stock suspension components and shocks

Can I install it at home, and what tools are needed?

Yes—this Rough Country kit is designed for at-home installation without removing the struts, which speeds the job and reduces complexity. Typical installs require basic hand tools, a floor jack, jack stands, and common sockets; Rough Country provides support resources if you need guidance.

• No strut disassembly required—simpler than many leveling options
• Works with standard shop or home garage tools
• Installation instructions and manufacturer support available

Will this let me run bigger tires and clear obstacles?

A 2" lift at the front provides additional clearance for larger tire diameters and helps avoid scrapes on rocks, ruts, and curbs without changing rear ride height. While two inches offers measurable benefit, confirm wheel/tire combinations and fender clearance before upgrading to aggressive oversized tires.

• Adds two inches of front clearance for moderate tire upsizing
• Improves approach angle and obstacle negotiation on trails
• Pairs well with wheel offset adjustments for extra clearance

What materials and warranty protect my purchase?

The spacer is CNC-machined from T6061 billet aluminum for light weight, strength, and corrosion resistance, then finished in red for visual appeal. Rough Country supports the product with a limited lifetime replacement warranty, giving long-term coverage for manufacturing defects.

• T6061 billet aluminum construction for durability
• Protective red finish that resists corrosion and wear
• Limited lifetime replacement warranty from Rough Country

Who is this for: This leveling kit is ideal for Chevy or GMC 1500 owners (2007–2018) who want a quick, reliable way to level the front with the rear, gain modest additional tire clearance, and retain factory ride characteristics. It's well suited for DIY installers, truck owners adding light off-road capability, or anyone seeking an affordable, reversible visual and functional upgrade backed by manufacturer support.
