About this kit
5-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 382.23 is a 5-inch lift kit for the 1994–1999 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD, built around lifted diesel coil springs, control arm drop brackets, an add-a-leaf pack with rear blocks, and an N3 shock kit. It does not fit V8 gas engine trucks or dually models, and the install calls for cutting and drilling.
This 5-inch lift kit for the 1994–1999 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD raises ride height while keeping the factory steering geometry in place through a pitman arm, track bar drop bracket, and sway-bar drop brackets. The control arm brackets bolt in without welding. Out back you get an add-a-leaf pack, lift blocks, U-bolts, and hardware; trucks with factory overload springs need the overload removed to use the new block and U-bolt hardware. Rough Country lists the job at 8-10 hours with cutting and drilling required. Factory 17-inch and 20-inch wheels are supported, and a downloadable installation guide is available.
