About this part

2.5-Inch Lift Kit, fitment-checked

Rough Country 652 is a 2.5-inch lift kit for the 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler 4WD in SE trim. It bolts on without welding or custom fabrication and uses coil springs matched to the factory spring rate. It does not fit Wranglers with the 6-cylinder engine, and aftermarket wheels are recommended when running oversized tires.

This 2.5-inch lift kit for the 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler 4WD adds ground clearance and room for larger wheel and tire packages on SE models. Confirm your engine first: applications with the 6-cylinder are excluded. Coil springs are tuned to the stock rate, so ride quality stays predictable, and the kit installs with bolt-on hardware rather than welding or cutting. Keeping factory wheels with taller tires can bring the tire into contact with the lower control arm at full lock, so aftermarket wheels are the safer route. N3 nitrogen-charged or M1 Monotube shock options are offered. A downloadable installation guide is available.
