So i been trying to research a ton of info and didnt see any revew on 4.5 RoughCountry 4.5 lift kit ? I dont think i like the spacer in the front ,so i think get taller front springs and sell mine maybe .I allready have Prorated front springs ,so my nose looks like it level with back.Any one out there has this set up installed ? Is it good kit ? or its a waste of money ? im thinking 295/70/18 on stock rim with it.Also going to add a leaf in the back.
Please give me some advise ,I dont want to F... Up $55 K truck !
Thanks!

 

You won't need to go that tall on a lift kit ,a simple leveling or i used a 2.5 kit which is plenty of room . that size tire is only 1 inch taller and less than 3/4 of a inch wider ...i went with the nitto tera grappler, great tire <TABLE style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" borderColor=black cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=4 background=images/spacer.gif border=1><TBODY><TR bgColor=#d3d3d3><TD>Stock Tire - 275/70R18 >Search Tires </TD><TD>Tire 2 - 295/70R18 >Search Tires </TD></TR><TR onmouseover="style.backgroundColor='#D3D3D3';

The reason i want a lift kit is get my rear up a little ,my truck sits level right now ,cause i have plow prep package ,that gave me 1 1/2 higher front springs,so if i go another 2" up on the front its gonna look like crap Plus i dont know if i like a spacer ,so I was thinking taller spring and like 5" ready lift block on rear with add a leaf ? so the bed gonna look up a little .My trailer over 14000 lb ,its no joke how much my rear sag is ...

 

I also have the plow pack. truck sat level i added the 2.5 and front came up about 2 inch and rear blocks were almost 2 inches thick brought rear up 1 inch higher than front ,for a little rake i thought it looks good also i have air lift air bags in rear for when i tow tuck is always level never a sag ..

 

Only difference in our trucks is I have the gas model ..

 

So you did add a block on rear ? Can you post picture ? what it looks like ?

 

I dont have pics yet of my truck but the block comes with most all kits and goes between the axle and factory block, and longer u bolts simple install..i will take some pics as soon as i can ..
