About this kit

3-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Struts, fitment-checked

Rough Country 54557 is a 3-inch lift kit for compatible 2014–2020 Ford F-150 4WD models, built around Vertex 2.5 adjustable front struts (left and right) and a V2 monotube shock pair. It does not fit regular or standard cab trucks, and it does not fit trucks with the Heavy Duty Payload Package (seven-lug).

This 3-inch lift kit for the 2014–2020 Ford F-150 4WD covers XL, XLT, STX, FX4, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, Limited, and SSV applications shown in the fitment section. The front uses Vertex 2.5 adjustable struts; a V2 monotube pair handles the rear. Forged aluminum upper control arms with heavy-duty rubber bushings keep ball joint angles in a working range. The design bolts on with no cutting or drilling and can be returned to stock later. Check cab configuration and payload package first, then work through the downloadable Rough Country installation guide.
