Rough Country 6" lift

[ksn240]

Rough Country just put their 6" lift out for order. It says shipping soon. I keep thinking I'll be happy with the 3.5-4" lift but the 6" lift looks damn good.

IMO 6" require a lot more investment. Tires, gears, mud flaps, flares etc.

Where a 3-4" is clean and run 35" tires... IMO, 35" on a 6" look very tiny and out of place.

True, though I think the 35s are still okay. I'll probably end up going with just the 4" lift, and maybe even the Readylift SST as I will never be offroad. I've got 34s on now, and will get some fender flares once they are available.

Do yourself a favor and wait to see what the other suspension companies release.

I'm not planning on getting it, not sure what size lift I'll even be going with yet. Just putting it out there and surprised somebody dropped one before SEMA.

Also nice to see more pictures of a lifted one other than the Procomp teaser.

A 6” lift in my opinion can and would look good with 35” tires, just needs the right wheels. Although honestly I’m really feeling 3.5” is perfect for our particular application.

The 3.5" is probably the route I'll go. Gives me room for 35" tires in the future and it is just for looks. It will never go offroad.

I’ll also never go off-road but Mopar didn’t offer anything above 2” sadly.

I noticed that they (rough country) recommend 37-12.50 with a 6” lift. Why? Lots of people I know put 35-12.50s with a 6” lift

I think it is more of a maximum tire size than a recommended. 35s are just fine.

Got a link? I can't find it. I thought I was just going to do the Readylift SST, but I absolutely love the look of the 6" lift do probably going to hold out a while longer.

One more thing; I’ve read a lot of posts on here with regards to lift kits. There’s a lot of ambiguity between body and suspension. I want a 6” lift without sacrificing ride/drive performance AND durability. I’ve read with the body lift you’ll need a drive shaft extension?...control arm and sway bar issues? I just don’t want crap to be breaking in a couple of years. I will not be off-roading or riding it hard, just a simple drive through the woods every now and again. I will not be needing the clearance so there’s no issue there. What do y’all think? TIA

I'm not a fan of body lifts. You can probably get away with an inch or two but anything after that is extremely noticeable. I'll probably be going with this rough country lift. I was going to do the Readylift SST lift but decided I want to go bigger. I know Rough Country kind of gets **** on but I just want the look. It will never be abused or offroad so I'm not worried about it. I'm not lifting now I'll do it mid next year and will look at all my options then. For now I just have it leveled.

I'm not opposed to doing the tires a bit later. Just dont want to turn the truck into a dog with 35s since I only have the 3.21 gears.
