About this kit

4.5-Inch Lift Kit with V2 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 55971 is a 4.5-inch lift kit for compatible 2017-2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty 4WD models, built around V2 monotube shock pairs, a front coil set, a front CV driveshaft, and a fabricated rear block kit with 4.5-inch U-bolts. Diesel dual-rear-wheel trucks only: it does not fit gas engines, single-rear-wheel trucks, manual shift transfer cases, the Tremor factory trim package, or 2020 trucks with the 10-speed transmission.

This 4.5-inch lift kit for the 2017-2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty 4WD covers XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited trims listed in the fitment section. The package pairs V2 monotube shocks with radius arm drop brackets so caster can be reset toward the factory specification, and fabricated rear blocks handle the back of the truck. Rear wheels may call for dually spacers. Read the full exclusion list first, then pull the downloadable Rough Country installation guide to see the bolt-on scope before you start.
