Rough Country's 3-inch lift kit transforms 2014-2020 F-150 4WD trucks with a balanced stance, meaningful ground clearance gains, and forged aluminum upper control arms, all in a bolt-on package that fits a home garage build. The kit eliminates factory rake by raising the front and rear equally, giving the truck a level, aggressive profile while clearing room for up to 34-inch tires.
Forged aluminum upper control arms redefine the suspension geometry. Precision-forged aluminum arms replace the factory steel units and maintain ball joint angles at optimum positions to reduce wear across the entire suspension system. Heavy-duty rubber bushings absorb road inputs and extend component life, while the forged construction shaves weight without compromising strength. Available in raw or red finish to match your build aesthetic.
Multiple shock and strut configurations let you build the right ride. Choose nitrogen-charged N3 shocks and struts for a balanced, daily-driver-friendly setup, step up to M1 monotube shocks and struts for improved heat dissipation and damping precision, or specify front and rear Vertex reservoir coilovers for maximum adjustability and off-road performance. A front Vertex coilover paired with V2 rear shocks is also available for a mixed configuration. Every option integrates with the same lift geometry and hardware.
Rear blocks close the gap and maintain ride quality. Included rear lift blocks raise the back of the truck to match the front lift, producing a level stance without altering the factory leaf spring pack. The setup preserves a factory-like ride on the street while giving the truck the clearance it needs on trail.
Bolt-on installation requires no cutting or drilling. Every component in the kit mounts to existing factory locations using common hand tools. The process is fully reversible, so the truck can return to stock configuration without permanent modification.

Note: Fits 2014-2020 F-150 4WD models only. Does NOT fit regular or standard cab models due to pinion angle issues, which cause drivetrain vibrations. Does NOT fit models equipped with Heavy Duty Payload Package (seven lug models). Spacer kit SKU: 51014 does NOT work on models with stock ride height over 22in [measured from center of wheel to the bottom of the fender]. Spacer kit SKU: 51014 does NOT fit on trucks with FX4, Snow Prep, and other off-road packages that modify front strut assemblies will likely measure over 22in and will not work with this kit. Models retaining factory wheels are advised to run no wider than a 11.5" wide tire.
