5 in. rough country lift question

1SilverBullet2 · Jan 30, 2016

Sorry for a late response; I'm running 35" Nitto Terra Grapplers like BB said. I'm about 6' 3" and I don't have an issue grabbing the hood to close it at all.

So my money comes in Monday and im still looking at different lifts. On a few websites for 5 inch lifts ive seen when you install you have too take off the stabilizer. Is that true? And ive heard dual stabilizers are junk. Is it best not too go that route ?

If you mean sway bar (I've heard people call it an anti sway stabilizer) then yes you have to remove it, then reinstall with drop brackets for it. I skipped that on mine and instead used some JKS quick disconnects for sway bar links that were extended length, but no kit offers that as an option for these trucks so that would be an additional $175 cost on top of the lift.

I love my dual stabilizers. My reason being is I smashed one and it's non functional so I still have a backup haha. Stabilizers themselves don't really do anything, adding two of them is no different than one. All they do is absorb road shock and save time for you steering components.

I have bumpsteer. Granted, I also have ass-bumpsteer.....aka I hit a bump the right way and the ass end kicks out to the left. haha

Yeah i was curious on what else I would have too do after installing the lift. Thanks for the input and if i would get the dual stabilizers it would be because I like the looks lol

i put a rough country 5 inch in and am running 35s. i havent had any problems with the lift. the only thing i really hate about the lift is that it came with a block and they expect you to stack it ontop of the current block for the rear. but other than that its a great lift. i can put pictures up later.as for height, i am 5 10 and i have to jump to get in. i also dont have running boards though.

All kits come that way in the rear unless they replace the leaf pack completely. The factory blocks have the bump stop integrated into it, but dimension wise matches tons of vehicles. Not worth the added expense to build blocks like that for people who want to skip out on leaf springs.
