About this part
3-Inch Lift Kit, fitment-checked
Rough Country 51013 is a 3-inch lift kit for compatible 2009-2013 Ford F-150 4WD and AWD models, using front spacers plus forged aluminum upper control arms with heavy-duty rubber bushings. It does not fit regular or standard cab trucks, Raptor models, or trucks with the Heavy Duty Payload Package (seven lug). Trucks measuring more than 22 in of stock ride height are also outside the fitment.
This 3-inch lift kit for the 2009-2013 Ford F-150 4WD lifts the front end and swaps in new forged aluminum upper control arms that keep ball joint angles closer to their intended range. The install is bolt-on, with no cutting or drilling, and it can be reversed back to stock later. Measure from wheel center to the bottom of the fender before ordering: anything over 22 in is out, which often includes FX4, Snow Prep, and similar off-road strut packages. Shock and strut pairing is open, from nitrogen-charged N3 units to M1 monotubes. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available.
