About this kit

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

Rough Country 53970 is a 6-inch lift kit for 2008–2010 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 4WD models. The kit pairs front coils and a radius arm upgrade with a rear add-a-leaf and a 3-inch block and U-bolt package, plus two V2 monotube shock pairs. It does not fit dually models, and the factory rear contact overload springs come out during the build.

This 6-inch lift kit for the 2008–2010 Ford Super Duty 4WD covers F-250 and F-350 trims from XL and XLT through Lariat, King Ranch, FX4, Cabela's, and the Harley-Davidson Edition, along with 2008–2009 F-250 4WD applications listed in the fitment section. The heavy-duty radius arms carry rubber bushings and an adjustable cam at the axle for caster correction, so factory front geometry stays in range. Gas trucks may need exhaust modification for front driveshaft clearance. Confirm your truck is not a dually, then work from the downloadable Rough Country installation guide before you start.
