About this kit

2-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Struts, fitment-checked

Rough Country 358.23 is a 2-inch front lift package for 2012–2018 Ram 1500 4WD and 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD trucks, built around a loaded N3 leveling strut assembly. The replacement struts produce 2 inches of front lift and leave roughly 1 inch of rear rake. It does not fit trucks with the 3.6L Pentastar V6, 4-corner air suspension (standard on Rebel and Limited), or Warlock models.

This 2-inch lift kit for the 2012–2018 Ram 1500 4WD and 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD covers trims from Tradesman and Express through Laramie Longhorn, plus Special Service on the Classic. Inside the box is one loaded N3 leveling strut assembly, so the front end gains 2 inches of height while about 1 inch of factory rake stays in the rear for towing and cargo duty. Installation is bolt-on, with no cutting or drilling called out. Confirm your engine and suspension type first — the Pentastar V6, air-suspension, and Warlock exclusions are firm. A downloadable installation guide is available.
