What's included

• Crossmember Box — laser-cut 1/4" thick steel with powder-coat "Hammer Black" finish to match factory components and provide structural support for the lift system.
• Torsion Bar Drop Kit Box — engineered brackets and hardware that drop the torsion bars to maintain factory angles while lifting the truck 5 inches.
• 5–7 in Kit Box — suspension brackets and fasteners engineered for the full 5-inch lift height and compatible with a range of shock options.
• Driver and Passenger Knuckles — precision-cast front-end components that preserve axle alignment and reduce wear while accommodating the lift geometry.
• 253x Kit Box — high-strength steel hardware and brackets for driveline angle correction and component integration.
• Vertex 2.5 FR Shocks (qty 2) — nitrogen-charged front shocks tuned for smooth ride quality and responsive handling on lifted geometry.
• Vertex 2.5 RR Shocks (qty 2) — nitrogen-charged rear shocks engineered to complement the Torsion Drop design and maintain factory-like ride feel.

Important notes

• Does not fit dually models due to u-bolt design variances.
• Factory rear overload springs must be removed on equipped models.
• Does not work with factory wheels. Models equipped with factory 17-inch wheels must use 17-inch or larger aftermarket wheels due to larger calipers and rotor clearance.
• Gas models may require exhaust modification for driveshaft clearance.
• Minor cutting and drilling required during installation. A torsion bar removal tool (Rough Country 1067) is recommended for easier installation.
