People only hate rough country because they’d rather spend $5,000 on a lift to never go off-roading with and use it for a daily just to flex on Instagram, rough country isn’t bad I had it on my 2015 Ram and now putting a 3.5 inch lift on my 5th gen 4runner
im looking to do this on my 2015 ram2500, how is the rough country lift kit working for year since your post here on youtube?
i dont plan on off roading, however the roads i drive on are rough enough to be considered offroad, and i feel every bump in my stock suspension.
I have a Rough Country 6" lift on my 2018 Ford F-150 and it rides and handles great! No issues what so ever and I've had it now for 3 years. No rust or metal breaking. very well made. I'm happy with it.
I have the same truck and just ordered a rough country lift. how big tires can u fit in your 6in
I have both a Rough Country 1.75" suspension lift and the 1.25" body lift on my 2014 JK for almost a year now and without a doubt it continues to ride as well as it did before the lift.
Never any death wobble?
Have had 2.5" RC lift on my Grand Cherokee for about 1 year. Highway, dirt roads, off road... no problems. How many times is it human error over brand? Lots.
I have one in my 2012 Wrangler, the mechanics at the dealership I work for actually recommended it and so I purchased it and they installed it for me. I have had absolutely no issue.
Thank you for this video Brian! I’m a First time jeep owner looking for a budget friendly lift. You answered my questions about RC and will give them a shot.
Just bought a level kit with the N3s and this video made me feel a lot better about my decision 👌🏻
Right ? You buy it because that’s what people suggest and than read everyone’s feed back and start freaking out 😂 how are the feeling ?
Any update on how you like it?
I'm here bc I'm freaking out. Just 2 inch leveled my RAM (at a great shop) . And a few comments have me stressed out, people talking about ball joints poppin on the highway. Uhhh my shop did say I did not need to replace upper control arms. That's the only thing I'm curious about.
I have had RC on my last 3 jeeps and they always perform and drive great for me. I'm happy with the lift and the price! Getting ready to buy a gladiator and I will be installing a RC lift.
Great video... well done. I have a 2013 JKU and got the 2.5 lift and steering dampeners at new... just now need to replace the shocks 11 yrs later only because I'm an idiot and abused them too much. Upgrading from the old 2.2s to the M1s, but springs are solid sill and no issues otherwise. Thanks for sharing,
Thanks for sharing this video ! I'm looking for a 2.5 lift on my 21 JL I have alot of stuff on the new jeep and I'm seeing a bit of squat hoping that would fix it and give me that Rubicon look since I have a sport.
I am getting the rough country x series 4 inch installed on my 2016 JKU Wrangler Sport August 1rst your video is one of the many factors for my purchase!
Great video Brian! I was looking at rough country for the lift on our JK but for about the same price range for a 2 in lift that we want and reading on the wrangler forums that the Rancho 2 in with the progressive springs and 9000 adjustable shocks to dial in your ride sounds much much for our needs. Plus with being at 2in I won’t have to mess with the exhaust pipe with the shocks. Maybe down the road I’ll replace the shocks with fox or falcons but for now I can’t wait
I have a JK and I did the horrible mistake of rough country and I regret it every day that I drive my jeep, it is very rough and hard, not a smooth ride at all, spend the extra money and buy a quality lift.
I have rubicon JT on 6 inch RC and 40s and using their front drive shaft . Love it no complaints at all and wheel all the time and it’s my daily
I found your video because I was researching RC shocks for my lifted Nissan Xterra... I ended up buying their N3 series shocks for the rear... I went with the Ironman leaf springs and I will see how the rear does before upgrading my front suspension. but if RC does well in the rear I will most likely go with them for the front.
I just installed 2.5 reservoir adjustable vertex shock rough country on my 2dr jk 07, it ride awesome and very good performance, I'm happy with it
Replaced my broken Fox with the Vertex 3". Did Baja 400 twice going at 150km/h. Going back next year. Slight modifications were required. Nothing brake so far.
I just got my first 1999 jeep wrangler tj and i just got the rough country and i will keep you guys updated wen installation happens
I have the 2.5" lift kit and shocks all RC on my 98 jeep wrangler TJ and I've only had it for a month now but I'm loving it! I'm ready to put it to the test and see if she can take the beating imma put her through😁
I have the 2.5 in lift on my Jeep jk 2013 , love it . 24 months and no problems .
I have a few rough country parts on my Jeep. I personally love them. I don’t know how good they were back in the day, but they are certainly good now!
Hey there! I have the same kit as you, with 35s in my JKU. I took the 5th wheel out of the gate and put it in the "trunk". The ride of the Wrangler improved a lot!! I think that Rough Country shocks have a very good quality, but I can now tell that they are too soft, at least for the back.
With the 5th wheel off.... I think I am going to go to a stiffer rear shocks.
(1st time Jeep owner here) Just ordered a 3.5” lift kit for my 2014 Wrangler unlimited Sahara after I did weeks of research. Didn’t want to break the bank and wanted something with reputable products. Have read good and bad things about RC but overall, I’m looking forward to putting this on my ride.
It’s been bout 2 years since you posted that man! How’s it held up so far?
@@spritemanplus4700 the lift kit has been great. I feel every bump and rock on the road which is expected) but no regrets. Added 35” tires too so it is sitting nicely.
Thank you for this HONEST UNBIASED review 🙏💪
I installed a Rough Country system on my 78 Land Cruiser fj40. It rode rough for years. I recently re ordered 4 new shocks and a steering damper from them. It worked for me.
I want an old Cruiser so bad! Which shocks did you run this time?
I have RC 3.5” on my 17 Tacoma TRD OR driving from Louisiana to South Lake Tahoe doing off roading on the snow really hard have zero problems it actually keep up with kings and icons suspensions,drive back to Louisiana doing muddy off road still I don’t have any issues.
I actually love it they can take hard off road.
It worth the money
Most people can't out-drive their components anyway.. just as most shooters worry about MOA, and they can't even shoot anywhere close to 1 MOA consistently.
Nice video first of all, concise and to the point. I'd be really interested in hearing from anyone with these in a coilover vs no, going on a RAM 1500.
I just installed rough country 3.5 inch lift on my stepdads 2023 ram1500. It rides really darn good. In comparison, my brother in law has the same exact truck that stock. Would take ram with the rc 3.5 kit anyday
I've had a 3" and a 6" both on Titan's. Probably my only gripe was the rear lift blocks rather than lift springs, and the sway bar links. If your a serious offroad guy, your gonna want long travel with coil overs anyways. These are more for "looks" and function. I did end up cutting the stock sway bar links and extending them.
I just bought the 3.5 inch lift for my 11 JKU and waiting on it. What is funny to me was the 4" was 50.00 cheaper but had less parts so that confused me so I went with the 3.5. I hope I will not be disappointed.
Hey man. Thanks for putting this together
Thank you, great info.
My wife and I have a 2020 JL and have the 2.5" RC lift, with 35's. It rides like a Jeep. No complaints. The shock bodies are still clean. I just ordered an RC 6" lift with the Vertex Coilovers and Vertex reservoirs in the rear for my F-150. I'm super excited to get the kit installed.
Thanks for the quick video that's straight to the point.
So if I buy the RC 2.5" lift for my 2021 JL will ride similar as stock? I'm about pulling the trigger on a lift since I just bought 20" rims with 35' tires but I'm just curious. Thanks!
@@The.blondest_brunette. the day we bought our jeep, we drove a bone stock jeep before hand. We purchased ours with the 2.5" lift installed prior to picking it up and there really seems to be no difference in ride quality. It handles the same, but gave more clearance for the tires
@@30Fordie fantastic and thank you for the info. What website would you recommend to buy the lift from? Thanks again and have a nice weekend. =)
I put the RC 3" lift on the wife's 2015 jk, and it's great. I put the 2.5 " leveling struts and matching rear shocks on my 2016 Ram and happy with them too.
We have a 2.5 rough country kit and we are adding long arms in the next month.so far so good
Solid video - Thanks!
I just installed a RC 2.5 lift kit (springs & shocks). It’s height is measuring out to 4 inches compared to stock. Does it take a while to settle or was my stock stuff toast and really sagging?
Last July I put a ReadyLift 2" front 1" rear leveling kit on my '04 Trailblazer EXT. It's the spacer style that goes between the upper strut mount and the strut tower. The rear is a simple aluminum spacer. I decided to put a proper lift kit on the front. I chose the BDS kit over the Rough Country for 1 reason, and it's not some preconceived bias based on a friend's cousin's brother-in-law's bad experience with RC. Chevy made the strut towers with 3 strut mounting holes, but then used only two of for their factory struts. Why? I don't know! ReadyLift designed their leveling kit to use all 3 holes, and BDS did the same with their strut mount replacement lift kit. The RC strut mount replacement lift kit only uses the two original holes. I felt that the extra strength of using the 3rd hole was important, others may not feel that way. That's why I went with the BDS kit. HOWEVER, I am going to be using RC's N3 shock on the rear, so maybe that will help make up for it. I also ordered (and received) RC's shock boots for those shocks. I know I got those boots, because I checked them out when they arrived. You think I can find them now? Noooooooooooo! They have disappeared into a crack in the space-time continuum! I have looked everywhere I have an anywhere! I know how to guarantee I'll find them though: order another set! Works every time!
I have an older RC lift with 50,000+ in my Rubicon. Not a single issue, Switched to diff brand adjustable shocks but the rest is still RC.
That's awesome. Yea, I think when I upgrade next I'll be upgrading my shocks for sure. I was looking at the falcon 3.3's
Thanks for confirming that I’m not crazy. Over a year later and it rides as well as it did before the lift.
I picked up my RK lift and King shocks for my JL 18 months ago. Everything worked great and haven't had any issues during moderate and heavy wheeling. Glad to hear you've had the same experience with yours. If it works, it works. Seems like a lot of manufacturers make good stuff now a days.
Yea. Thanks for the comment and feedback. RC just gets a lot of negativity. I’m not really loyal to any brand. I have friends that rock the metalcloak game changer and the rock Krawler and have issues with them too. I don’t think any brand is without its faults, and of course my entire lift including shocks probably cost less than your shocks, I can’t say that I have any complaints and wanted to make a real use unbiased review. Glad yours is working out just fine too.
50K miles in 18months? Woah that’s the most impressive part of the video lol
Been running RC on my JKU for about 2 years now. Wheeling in the summer, outer beaching weekends, getting out during winter snow storms and enjoying the weather and no issues either. As a matter of fact. I also have there inner fenders, cube lights and round LEDs, spare tire delete and seat covers! I stand behind there products.
you all probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a method to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Dario Idris Instablaster :)
@Theo Judson Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Theo Judson It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
@Dario Idris glad I could help :D
I just installed the Rough Country 2" leveling struts on a 2019 Ram 1500. It sits higher in the front now. Do they settle themselves after a while?
Il probably try rough county, i do mostly highway driving with minimal offroading but some offroading capability would be nice. I just want to look cool lol but not with a garbage kit either.
I just bought a 2.5 lift spacers for my 2019 Ford ranger hope I don’t have any problems with it. Seen so many videos saying they’re bad products.
I have a 7" inch lift kit on my 2016 gmc truck and I have no issues with it and ride fantastic....
I'm bout to get my 15 silverado single cab lifted 7" with the extended strut & 22x14s, can you let me know how yours is still holding up?
Great to know did you have to change the steering stabilizer?
Thinking about going with a 2.5 level on my 2016 Sierra Z71. Seen some negative reviews but always have to take those with a grain of salt unless many people are experiencing the same issues. Rough country looks pretty reputable to me. Thanks for the review.
Have you bought and installed? How does it ride?
I’ve had bilsteins 5100 and 4600 to stiff !!! I’ve had rough country n2 that was good but the rough country n3 are my Type they are way smoother. Than the rest
Glad to find some non haters here. Just picked up a 2018 JLU Sahara, putting a 2.5" lift with dual steering stabilizer in a week or two. I dont plan on doing anything crazy, no rock climbing, more of an overlanding jeep to daily and take the fam on camping trips, trail riding and beaching. For the price, it simply cannot be beat.
I’d just use one single stabilizer shock. Duals stiffens up your steering and works your steering pump to hard to the point of hot steering fluid that will take the life out of seals an o rings. Just IMO.
@@gregj.gotham4402 interesting. A little late though it's all installed. Rides like a damn dream though but ill keep an eye on the power steering thanks for the info.
I was looking at getting a pair of their 2inch lift struts for my dad's 11 Silverado. Any pointer's?
Looking for something to put on an 06 dakota 4x4. Everything says to do a 2.5 leveler on it. Should I try for more? New to this world of trucks.
I’ve had good experiences with RC products so far and I’ve seen/read good reviews as well. It’s like anything some people have biases, preferences, opinions, some based on fact some based on what they’ve heard or 1 or 2 bad experiences in the past. It seems like in general you can find some quality parts for the money from this company.
Put the 2.5 kit on my '98 Sonoma a few months ago and couldn't be happier. Everything fits perfect. Parts are strong. The ride is great. I've run it through it's paces from rocky creek beds to big hills. It's held up rock solid. I've seen the handful of grumblers complaining about ball joint this or cv axle that. It's my interpretation that they just don't know what the hell they're doing and just need something to blame it on.
How is it holding up? Wanting to lift my '00 zr2 blazer
Hey Fitz. What model did u get?
I have a rc lift for a 2002 4 door blazer blew out a front shock n3, and 1 rear shock. The eye hole mounts on the shocks and the bushings around them dont hold up to well also.. but customer service is great. I had new ones sent and received within 16 days shipped to canada
How often and how hard would you say you used your blazer? Like were you doing some serious off roading?
@@Florida.Caveman I use it everyweekend for fishing to get me into those hidden lakes the in the Canadian mountains. Also do alot of exploring in mountain. From forest service roads to jeep trails. I am running cooper stt pro and air down to 15psi every time
thanks for the review...
I lifted my jeep and now it rides like a lifted jeep !!
real happy with my rc lift ...
What year and model jeep do you have?
99 2 door xj , check it out !
orig owner , zero rust ... coming along nicely 👌.
just did the headliner : pro tip > don't do it on a 100 degree day with your wife
I bought a 4 in. lift from Rough Country for my wife's Jeep. It it rides nice and handles the trails very well. The only problem was she didn't disconnect the sway bar links before hitting the trails (user error) and it bent the hell out of the quick connect sway bar links as well as damaged the sway bar itself. Don't forget to disconnect before wheeling. I know most die hard Jeep people just leave them disconnected but I encourage her to drive on the road with them connected for safer handling. Over all I dig Rough Country. I actually just bought the N3s for the rear of my 02 Tacoma PreRunner that I'm giving my son.
I just order the 2.5 lift . I'm glad I watch this video
How is your experience with Rough country
@@CASPER63074 I think the springs are trash. To stiff, I'm gonna order the teraflex spring for daily drivers
4in lift here on 09 and still taking a beating. Seen all other lifts broke on the trails.
Just got a 20204 jeep sport s and going to install the 2.5inch life on it. Yea it’s a rough country.
I got RC cause I wanted a lift and I go fishing and to the mountains 3 times a month nothing crazy nor am I a mud slinger. I think rough country is good for moderate off roaders.
Still debating on RC or Rancho 2” lift for my JK
Mine say made in Mexico I just bought the N3 series for my 1993 Ford Explorer will be putting 31s on it soon
Same
I got sum ruff country 0-4” lift shocks that say made in Mexico and I have 4.5-8 “ shocks that say made in China I think they are fine they work well the Mexican made one seems a little stiffer but I will say I think they run a tad short example my stock ac Delco shock is 25” extended the 0-4 lifted Rc shock is only 26” extended so only one inch longer measure before you buy the 4.5-8” is 30” extended
Put the N3 struts on a 2020 Ram 1500, and now on a 2020 Ford Ranger. In both cases, noticeably better ride than stock. If their rear shocks are just as good as the struts then that is how I will go on the rear.
I have had a 6" RC Lift on my 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 for over a year now and i love it! Just did a 4 hour trip to and from 500+ miles running 90 mph at times, no shimmy or shakes and straight down the Pa turnpike! Im on 33-12.5- 20s! Also off road, nothing crazy but not an issue there either. All my angles are just like stock. Soon to swap out spacers for Vertex coilovers.
It’s crazy I ran across this comment bc I’m going with a 6 inch lift on 2017 gmc 1500. Idc about the ride quality but I want my son and wife to be comfortable on the highway. I’m going with slightly bigger wheels but still 12 wide on 33s
@@alexj835 as with any brand lift obviously make sure installed correctly and make sure to retorque! RC is well engineered! Anti axle wrap rear blocks are a huge bonus! RC has been doing lifts longer than most!!! I've used them for decades! Good luck and I'm sure you won't be disappointed! PS, I believe a lot of the bad things you read is from poorly installed lifts, and guys pissed they spent too much on another brand...... Lol
@@paulcondie2520 haha nice, thanks for the info! I was thinking about going with ladder bars for the axle wrap but I'll look into the rear blocks as well.
@@alexj835 unless you do burnouts and thrash it, you should be fine. I put KSP traction bars on mine cause I do get wild here n there. The reason I went with KSP because of their length. Nice n short so not to lose as much clearance as the rest. PS, your RC lifts comes with their anti wrap lift blocks
@@paulcondie2520 awesome! Thanks for the info. The lifted truck community has been super helpful
For the money rough country makes an amazing product. Yes there are better products, but for quite a bit more money. Honestly, if you’re short on money get the full lift kit from rough country and go back later and buy some better struts. Even if they are the longer rc shocks or fox. Build depends on budget always.
We have the Rough Country
4” X-series lift with steering stabilizer on our 2017 JKU and love it. We have over 43k miles on the lift and have been wheeling from Cali to the Canadian border.
I've been using Rough Country since high school in the early 80's yes they have had their problems but what company doesn't. Products are good for the average Joe consumer, Customer service is great.
Bro I love how you explain about RC I’m thinking about it for my Tacoma you are right…why buy these expensive shit when there a good product here…I have icon on my Tacoma and heard so much good about them, running them for 2 year I’m not impressed and too expensive for shitty driving experience….I heard bad thing about RC but why? I never ran them they look like something I wanna try for the trailing I do…
I had Rough country on 3 rams a 2 jeeps no problems.
Just ordered this exact lift for my 2020 wrangler sport two door JL. Planning on putting 33×12.50 tires. Will that size tire fit on the spare tire holder without hitting the bumper?
33X12.50X20 fit on mine does not hit bumper. 2020 wrangler 4door jl should be same
I have a unlimited four-door jL and I’m about to buy the 2 1/2 inch lift kit from rough country with springs and coil ‘s. How do you like to ride? Is everything worked out OK?
They might have certain pieces from china but overall it’s 97-8%+(my guestimation) built in Tennessee
Well, I choose them because I thought it was a good shocks but I don’t think they’re gonna shock to me. I think they give about a ride I think for the money I think you should get something better than on the shocks that’s my opinion.
Im no expert but my 2013 f150 fx4 has had a 2 inch level since new the factory ford upper control arms and shocks lasted over 100,000 miles i decided to upgrade to rough country vertex coil overs in the front with there mid grade shocks in the rear. Also upgraded to the rc upper control arms. I put 15,000 miles on it in 2 years beating it like i always have both rear shocks already leaked out one upper control arm boot has already busted and now my coilover just went. Im sticking with motorcraft on everything from now on not a single issue in 100,000 miles. My upgrades have all failed in a year or two after 8 perfect years with ford parts. I do beat the hell out of it in the Rockies on jeep trails 35s winch camper decked. At max payload constantly but the ford parts lasted where rough country didn't.
I have same 2.5 kit and I LOVE RC. Might of been poor years ago? Dunno? All i know is that I am EXTREMLY happy with mine. THank you for sharing your thoughts on this. SO tired of the haters.. ugh..//
Question, I did 3.5in lift on my rubicon and added 35s on and that’s all I did, how far can I flex with that?
should have got the long arm with quick disconnects
I got a pair to level my Tacos it’s a good price. I don’t think those doubles the price of RC would haves twice the quality of the rides.
Rough country works just fine. Never had a problem with their lift kits or shocks. I don't heavy rock crawl, mainly overlanding, but happy so far. Haters goo g to hate. Whatever.....
Rough country long arm kit is great had for 5 years never broke a thing you just have to not beat hell out of it shit only breaks if u dont care and u beat hell out it it's all on the driver lol
I run the rough country 2.5 suspension lift and I have had zero problems. Ive had it about 7 months and I love it. It rides just as good as factory. I run 35s and I do trail ride every chance I can.
What year and model jeep do you have?
You in AZ?.
you running their Vertex adj 2.5 rear shocks?! Really wanna know your thoughts on those specifically.
he showed the N3 shocks in his video, I dont know what he is running now but i Just ordered RC M1 monotube shocks for my f150. NOTE the N3 shocks are twin tube shocks
@@johnw5931 this ended up being a pointless inquiry because the poster didn't answer questions. I bought the Vertex rear shocks for my F150
@Pens4Life85 ya I feel ya I went with the M1 because I don't do and rock crawling or serious offroad but I do drive on the beach and in back country
@@johnw5931 are the M1s even gonna be that much of an improvement over stock for you?
@@Pens4Life85ya unfortunately the fomoco parts they use on the f150 are kind of shit, the m1s are monotube socks with better travel
My truck is out together with almost all rough country parts I will not order any other they have worked great for me that and I don't want 30 different name brand parts on my truck lol
I've had Rough Country for 3 years I've been in two feet of snow and three feet of water never had a problem I needed more clearance and the four and a half inch lift kit was perfect for my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo
I have had death wobble and haven’t been able to get it fixed. Hit a bump at 75mph better hold on
What size and vehicle is it?
@@ChukaCustoms 2018 4 door Jeep jl
@@ChukaCustoms 2” lift Jeep jl wrangler
Is your jeep a two door or four-door? What lift kit isn’t it? And what size tires are you running?
get a steering stabilizer kit
So for the money 2.5" is not a big lift just to add on some 31's And hop a curb or two You will also be replacing Ball joints And bearings sooner on some of the trucks ...Also for you guys in the We use salt on our roads (winter) And seaside trucks ...ether get the parts bedlined Or rust proofed before they go on They rust in 1 season of use The coating is very poor As for the welding snaps i have seen on google If it is going to rust aswell I would not keep this product on my truck loner than a few years
The goodside : go with a 6 inch lift for the money Have all the parts double coated And slap any tire you want And go anywhere you want
Remember your grandad's 1950's shot suspension pick up flying through back roads with everything rattling and bumping? Well, that is what the Rough Country suspension feels like on the highway.
RC shocks suck! I just replaced my stock JL shocks with RC Monotube M1s …I now feel every pebble on the road…I am returning the steering stabilizer, installed a Fox. I hate taking these brand new shocks off, but they are awful.
Here's my honest opinion based on experience. I test drove a brand new JL at the dealership that had a 2.5" RC lift installed with the N3 shocks and 35s on 20s. Rode VERY NICE and comfortable on the road and highway since that's where I spend 99.9% of my time when it's not parked. When I bought a stock JL, I compared other lifts and people said to stay away, but I had just experienced a great ride quality from RC so I decided to go that route, except I went with a 3.5" lift instead with 35s on 20s as well. It also included a control arm drop bracket and Adjustable track bar. BAD decision. That 1 additional inch is makes a huge difference in ride quality I had never imagined would happen. It's rough, bouncy, feel the washboard and road imperfections and body movement. Now I'm in the process of doing more research and deciding what to upgrade to next. If I ever get a 2.5" lift, I'll consider RC, other than that, never again.
That is great information for me as I am about to do the same thing! I think I’ll go with the 2 1/2 inch.
Meh.... I also have the 3.5 on my 2013 jku and mine drives and rides just fine.
If it’s too bouncy let some air out of your tires. I have 37 inch tires. PSI was at 40 and I went down to 37/36 PSI. You can feel the difference in the ride. You’ll be fine after that.
@@davidrobertson6226 Actually, 6 months later, I am giving a different update: I still have the RC coils, but upgraded the shocks to Fox 2.0. The fox performs really well offroad, but onroad, it isn't exactly the best riding shock as everyone says. Rough Country does OK on the road, however, they blow out quickly, just as one of mine did. I also changed my wheel setup from 35x on 20x12 E rated tire to 37s on 17s D rated tire. That made a world of a difference. PSI was always at 28 for both.
If people stopped buying things made in China, we would have empty homes.
Got into an argument about RC with a bunch of guys in the pub. Found out after, that two of the three owned Civics...no offroad vehicles at all. RC is fine, and I think people hate on the RC stuff after spending $5k on top name-brands.
The people who don't like rough country are the same ones that don't like Nickel Back. When you ask them why... they cant really give you a straight answer.
Nickelback is gay, Rough Country isn't.
I really cant stand people who knock rough country. Rough country is very popular where i use to live, we beat the living hell out of our stuff. Rough country stands with their warranty and weve been nothing but satisfied.
Mine were made in Taiwan
I bought one RC kit and my mechanic refused to install he says the quality is bad 😡
If you have any DIY know how at all these things are super easy to install in a garage or driveway
Then youre mechanic is a idiot. Don't let people tell you what you can or cannot install on your vehicle.
lol. A 2.5" lift.
