Rough Country lift kit?
Any body ever use the Rough Country all spring lift kits? I found this kit on eBay and can not decide on this or use my X codes in front and go C codes in the rear. I want to run 315/75r16's or 35"s but not sure if they will fit with the X & C codes. I probably will get the C codes with aux or over load spring and do modded X & C codes also. Here is a link to the Rough Country kit I know I need to get different rear shocks. Ford F250 F350 Super Duty 4

I think I am going to just do the X&C code swap. Just need to know if the 315/75r16 or 35" will fit under there with minimum rubbing on tight turns. I am ok with that if only on tight turns. I will likely order C codes with the overload or aux leaf to mod the X's in front. I have the 3.5" F250/350 lift blocks already not sure if I should mod the rear C's also or not. I'm okay with a little rake forward.

Then let's get down to the nuts and bolts so we can really answer your question. What are you going to do with it? I spent five years in Wisco with mine and never had any issues with stock suspension, hell, I even fit in the garage.
Back home to Idaho and I lifted it so I could run taller tires and re-geared it so as not to lose power. Also added the only option it didn't have, LSD. Why did I do it? I ski, camp, and SCUBA, among other things, and don't always have good roads available to me. I do not hard core four wheel drive and don't burn tires at traffic lights. And I really enjoy it more now that it is lifted and can go about anywhere I need/want.
So what goes? More info, better advice.

Want to start going off road exploring, camping with family.Logging trails some basic obstacles. Hunting, plan on going out west with my dad to elk hunt not hard core off roading or burning tires off. Going out in the fields around here at uncles when hunting and at my father n laws. Put some custom pin stripping on from tree branches . So not really aggressive, occasionally some deep ravines, some rocks to go over but by all means nothing extreme. Next project is a off road tent trailer to take camping. Kind of thinking like other member wpnaes excursion here in post #14 https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...w-v-and-c.html
