Built for Ram 1500 4WD owners who want leveled stance, improved ground clearance, and all-terrain capability — this 3-inch lift kit raises your truck while eliminating factory rake, giving you a commanding look both on road and off. Sized for 33"–34" tires, it delivers the height you need without compromising ride quality or geometry.

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

What's included

  • 2.5 Kit Boxstruts — engineered front suspension framework that integrates strut and coil-over geometry for controlled lift and smooth articulation.
  • Forged Upper Control Arms — premium aluminum arms with pre-installed POM ball joints that increase range of motion, reduce binding during flex, and come ready to bolt on without extra assembly.
  • M1 Loaded Strut Pair — front strut cartridges tuned for 3-inch lift height, preserving factory ride characteristics while supporting the increased load.
  • M1 Monotube Shock Pair — rear nitrogen-charged shocks built for durability and consistent damping across varying terrain, complementing the front strut setup for balanced suspension geometry.

Important notes

  • Does NOT fit 3.6L Pentastar V6 engines due to motor-weight variance affecting strut clearance.
  • Does NOT fit models equipped with 4-Corner Air Suspension — standard on Rebel and Limited models. Check your equipment label before ordering.
  • Does NOT fit Warlock models, which carry a factory 1-inch lift.
  • Factory wheel owners should run no wider than 11.5" tires. For aggressive side-wall tires, a 0.25" wheel spacer (SKU #1065) is recommended for additional clearance.

Why customers pick this at Road Runner

  • Bolt-on design — no cutting, drilling, or frame modifications. Installation is straightforward and your truck is roadworthy the same day.
  • Professionally installed and aligned by technicians who perform these kits every week — geometry is verified in-house to ensure long-term suspension health.
  • Forged upper control arms with pre-installed ball joints eliminate assembly guesswork and reduce installation labor.
  • Rough Country lifetime warranty backed locally — if anything fails, we handle the warranty claim and replacement right here.
  • Front-to-rear leveling corrects factory rake, delivering the aggressive stance you're after without sacrificing ride comfort.
