    This is a relatively new product for Rough Country. I too have taken a look at them. And whilst some of you may feel they are "meh", these do come with a 3 year warranty. Icon only warranties their coil-overs for 1 year. Still, would like to see a real world, long term review on a Tundra but we will have to wait a while.

    Yes these have really got my attention. As much as everyone bashes rough country, i have had their lifts on trucks in the past with zero complaints. I towed HEAVY with my f350 and ram 2500 with no issues and thats driving thru hills, creeks, rocks, fire and forestry roads of western va, nc and sc hauling boats, tractors and dozers or hay whatever. The only thing i never liked were the basic shocks but i ran fox 2.0 with the rc kits. I hope to see some reviews on these as i want a lift big enough to clear 37s and give the look but i need to be able to flex a little too offroad. These other kits are obnoxiously priced for the tundra. But i am coming from solid axle rubicons, ford and dodge hd.

    Far better than OEM to me. To be fair I was on a spacer lift suspension for a majority of the trucks life. The ride comfort is so much nicer, bumps and uneven roads that I would feel jolts on, are gone. I do get a little more bounce now but I think it's because my previous setup was just dead and my tires have some cupping. I honestly don't have any "complaints" about either and their performance. My only discontent came with the coilovers and the piggy back mount, it was just difficult for me trying to fit it in there and I still think I have it on incorrectly but it works. I would defenitely buy this set up again and I'm considering upgrading the rears to the Vertex due to being this satisfied with what I have, I just didn't want to spend the price tag initially.

    I was out in the field for a majority of the past month so I don't have a substantial amount of road time, but the times I have driven have been amazing. I'm not sure what UPC is? If it's Upper Control Arms, no I haven't upgraded yet.

    I bought everything from @BOSS4x4s and was extremely satisfied with their customer service and smooth purchase.

    Here's some recent photos that I've taken. I'll take some more in a few weeks.

    When I talked about the placement of the piggy back, it's low here and should be higher according to their pictures, but it didn't seem like it would fit in the well if I put it on the next set of bolts up where the Front Sway Bar is bolted to.

    Nice setup and reviews. I’m curious if you’ve got a more side profile pic showing those rims. I’m about to pull the trigger but like show and tell.

    I had the complete 6” vertex lit in my 2018 F150. I have had no complaints with this kit. I had 4.56 gears and 35” cooper discoverer at3 xlt tires after a set of nitro trail grapplers.

    I traded that truck in due to a divorce and bought a new 2021 tundra which will be having this kit added to it very soon.

    Yes, I initially had the RC lift and changed out to the coilovers.
