    Personally I would spend my money on a better lift. Rough country is known for bad CV angles and is one of the cheapest for a reason. Buy a quality coilover lift from Toytec or other reputable place instead of a spacer lift. You have a nice truck don't F it up. My $.02

    I wouldn't go over 3" on any spacer lift. 4" and above requires big-boy pants.

    I would not put a Rough Country lift on my own truck. What do you want to accomplish exactly?

    Nay. Toytec gets my vote. No issues with my 3/1 ultimate. Rides great.

    No, spacer of that size is asking for trouble, imo.

    If want 4ish lift, OME is a good option. I got the middle length coils (614) and got 3.5 inches of lift in the front. It has amazing track record in reliability, across many brands, including Jeep.

    We have sold a few of the RC 4.5" kits. Have not had one complaint yet. There are certainly higher performance options. But that kit seems to be a really good bang for the buck.

    I have an RC 6" on my 13. I just put icons on front and back, it's better handling for the 35s. The roads in ND are harsh, I wanna do some shackles amd get rid of the blocks
