About this part

2.5-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 47430 is a 2.5-inch lift kit for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 4WD, built around torsion bar keys up front and 1-inch lift blocks with U-bolts in the rear, plus N3 shocks. It does not fit trucks with the Heavy Duty Payload Package (seven-lug models).

This 2.5-inch lift kit for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 4WD covers Base, XL, XLT, Lariat, and King Ranch trims in 4WD form. The front lift comes from torsion bar keys, while the rear uses 1-inch lift blocks with U-bolts and hardware, and N3 shocks handle damping at all four corners. It bolts on without drilling, and Rough Country lists an install time of 2-3 hours. A torsion bar removal tool, part 1067, makes the front work easier. Confirm your truck is not a seven-lug Heavy Duty Payload Package model, then follow the downloadable installation guide.
