About this kit

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

Rough Country 55540 is a 4-inch lift kit for supported 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD models, built around an M1 loaded strut pair and an M1 monotube shock pair. Installation calls for cutting and drilling. Regular and standard cab models are not covered. If you keep the factory wheels, Rough Country advises staying at or under a tire 11.5 inches wide.

This 4-inch lift kit for the 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD covers XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, Limited, and SSV applications listed in the fitment section. The boxed kit brings a block and U-bolt package, crossmember, knuckles, the M1 loaded struts, and the M1 monotube shock pair, so front and rear are addressed in one order. Factory track width is retained and 18-inch or larger factory wheels work. Plan on cutting and drilling, confirm your cab configuration first, and pull the downloadable Rough Country installation guide before you start.
