Built for Ford Bronco 4WD owners who want to restore ride height and correct suspension sag, this 3-inch block and u-bolt kit gives you a straightforward rear-suspension upgrade. Rough Country's fabricated steel blocks are engineered to outlast cast alternatives and accommodate tires up to 33–34 inches — all while preserving your driveline geometry with tapered block design.

Installed and serviced at Road Runner Wheels & Tires. Most suspension upgrades go in the same day. Call (678) 400-6467 to schedule.

What's included

  • Fabricated steel blocks (pair) — tapered design reduces driveshaft angle and prevents binding. Stronger and longer-lasting than cast blocks, with single 9/16-inch pin for factory axle-pad fitment.
  • U-bolts (set) — 9/16-inch thread with 3.25-inch inside width and 10.5-inch inside length. E-coated steel resists corrosion and provides secure fastening to your rear axle.

  • Two-to-three-hour install means you're back on the road fast.
  • Fabricated steel construction outlasts cast blocks and handles heavy duty work year after year.
