About this kit

6-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 33250 is a 6-inch lift kit for compatible 2012–2018 Ram 1500 4WD trucks and 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD models, built around adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts and matching Vertex 2.5 rear shocks. Wheels must be 20 inches or larger. It does not fit the 3.6L Pentastar V6, 4-corner air suspension, or Warlock models, and is not recommended for AWD.

This 6-inch lift kit for the 2012–2018 Ram 1500 4WD, and for 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD, ships as a kit: adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts in left and right form, a pair of Vertex 2.5 rear shocks, rear 6-inch coil springs, a crossmember box kit, and driver- and passenger-side knuckles. Confirm your truck before ordering — the struts are not compatible with the 3.6L Pentastar V6, the kit skips models with 4-corner air suspension, and Warlock trucks carry a 1-inch factory lift. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available to review beforehand.
