About this kit

4.5-Inch Lift Kit with M1 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 55040 is a 4.5-inch lift kit for 2017-2022 Ford Super Duty 4WD trucks, built around two M1 monotube shock pairs, front coils, a fabricated block and U-bolt package, and a transfer case clocking kit. Read the exclusion list closely: gas engine, dually, manual shift transfer case, Tremor Factory Trim Package, and 4-inch rear axle tube trucks are all outside this application.

This 4.5-inch lift kit for the 2017-2022 Ford Super Duty 4WD is packaged with M1 monotube shock pairs front and rear, replacement front coils, fabricated rear blocks with a U-bolt kit, and a transfer case clocking kit. Radius arm drop brackets bring caster back into range so steering feel stays close to factory. Several configurations fall outside coverage, including gas engine trucks, duallys, manual shift transfer cases, Tremor Factory Trim Package models, 4-inch rear axle tubes, and 2020 trucks with the 10-speed transmission. Confirm your drivetrain and trim against the fitment section first. Shipping weight: 220 lb.
