2015-2017 F150 Rough Country 4" Suspension Lift Kit Review & Install

[@danielg201286]

I got this kit put on my 2016 F150. I had a reputable 4x4 shop put this is on for me in about 2 days plus an alignment and tire installation. I took this lift to some Nevada sand and highland mud up by Reno to go shoot and take my dirt bike out for some fresh air. My verdict is that its not a bad kit. I could've gone big and spend big money but it's pointless really it's not like I'm racing in the Baja 500 to work everyday. This kit took a beating with 7k miles and it's still going. The ride quality will diminish but is by no means a daily driver suspension kit. It is "rough" hence the name. Don't come here getting mad a kit that's $1400 dollars at best and expecting it to hit some dunes or jumps like its some high end FOX racing kit. This kit is for guys that aren't crazy about bogging in mad but rather more concerned about clearance and light off road use. 33x12.5x18 Nitto ridge grapplers with KMC XD Fusions, I have no regrets with this kit.

You’re saying this lift kit isn’t good for daily driving?

[@danielg201286]

​@@p2o8wer If your commute is short than you won't really notice. The struts are a bit on the cheap side. I'm noticing the ride is staring to get a lil squishy now with 20k on the struts. If you daily your truck and want an off road capable truck go for something a lil more expensive that has the ability to adjust the dampening of the shocks.

[@p2o8wer]

@@danielg201286 I’m not worried about going off road much. It’s a daily. So I’d like to have a nice comfortable ride as much as possible.

[@buffalobmf]

can fit 35s on a 4in lift easy. i got 34s on a 2in level

[@balloony2850]

Did you have to trim for it?

[@buffalobmf]

@@balloony2850 no.

I've had this lift for about a year now on my 2016 F-150. It's been great. However, I recently had bushings on both my upper left and right control arms start squeaking. The truck had 150,000 miles on it, and I'm sure these are the original uppers and bushings. I wonder that since the kit uses the stock uppers, that if the slight higher position of the arms caused the bushings to start squeaking? I'll be replacing both, and will most likely opt for a new stock set of uppers.

[@devontebeverly6077]

Same with mines, I just had to replace both my upper from stock to rough country upper because of bushings

[@LongHaulTrucker4Life]

I'm gunna buy it... Not gunna tell the wife until after credit card bill comes through lol

[@freeshavacado3959]

That's a brave move...

[@ryanbrown625]

I mean i fit 35s with 20x12 wheels with a 2 inch leveling kit with minor cutting so you can definitely fit 35s with no issue

[@stefanbryant3444]

What offset are your wheels? Thanks in advance, brother!

[@Dwheeler3]

I put on 305/70/18 on factory wheels with a 2” level kit. That’s 35-12-18 tires. No grinding or other mods needed.

[@cajun26bc]

See, i agree. Thought there would be plenty of room with a 4” for 35s

[@AJYates-zw3hu]

@@Dwheeler3 Did the 2 inch leveling kit include any rear blocks? Or just the front?

[@TheBoosteddub]

Any new videos for the 2001 body style lift kits and bumpers?

[@Max_ellis74]

You think I could add 35 with fox suspension. I believe the fox suspension adds two inches

[@ricmelyair]

Hi im going to use level kit 4 inch on my ford f150 2016 what size of blocks can i use on the back please

Never heard of a reciprocating drill. Lol

[@joevercellotti7888]

what size are those aftermarket wheels and tires in the video

[@OttoMatieque]

I wonder - how much heavier is the cast-iron knuckle vs the aluminum (forged?) one from the factor? Do you notice the extra weight in the ride quality?

[@Bass_Daddy]

Could I pair this lift with the ICON Vehicle Dynamics 1.75 to 3-Inch Suspension Lift System; Stage 5?

[@OttoMatieque]

0:41 drop knuckles?

[@blueman9450]

What about ride quality?

[@hyperfishing8452]

Can this fit on a 2016 toyota tacoma ?

[@maxwarner4888]

what is different with the 2018s?

[@buildingusa9604]

How much will that kit install cost $

[@13Mickeysur]

Im doing 4inch lift for a dodge ram 1500 and doesn't have that much stuff ...why?

[@ya_boipmedal0901]

does this use the stock upper control arm?

[@bencarr1047]

Yes

[@huntingfreek1]

Do you have to shorten the rack?

[@walterrojas1075]

First time I’ve ever heard Rough Country called a “premium lift.”

[@speeddemon0712]

Hahaha I was thinking the same thing.

[@dieseldavedick]

I thought a RC was a poor mans lift. Lol

[@IdioSyncrasy1337]

Because the price is at a minorly lower point? you probably get your lift installed at a shop 😂 shut up please

[@TUNDRAZONE]

Not to mention stacking blocks... just no...

[@SATXrattlesnake]

can it be upgraded to fox 2.0 shocks?

[@billpeirce7127]

Jst go BDS. U get fox coilover reservoir shocks in front and fox shocks in back and better ride and longevity. BDS is the best!!!!😁😁😁

[@AutisticGamer2K5]

33s are better than 35s because not only don't 33s require fender modifications, but your truck stays the same height.

[@atascaderoca8584]

that was very involved

[@wowcrazy70]

Rough country was terrible on my Jeep don’t trust them for my new ford lol

[@billpeirce7127]

What a shitty lift kit. Go BDS or nothing. BDS does it right and over builds it big time!!!!!
