This was built by Rough Country Suspension out of dyersburg,TN they bought this truck new to build the lift for it, in the first picture the guy on the left is the one who designs and builds the lifts, the one on the right is the one who sells them.. Two REALLY nice guys and the kit is very well made, it is a 5" lift with 37's all the way around, truck looks incredible.. the kit is 100% bolt on and ALL THE FACTORY accesories will work with it, he said he wanted everything to still work and it does! AWESOME job by these guys if i ever lift a truck i will be getting it from them! lemme know what you think or any questions me or bbyhmr can answer them








The truck CLEARED THE H1 side of out track!! the H2's cant even make it over that!!!

Very nice work indeed. I like the lift, but I'm far more interested in the winch and the mount.

That lift looks great and I love the fact that I can keep the fatory wheels, that is the look that I want for my H3!!

Can you please let us know more details? (price, installation, etc.) or at least a number or email address that we could use to get more information?

Thanks!

Man that looks great how do you think it would look with 35's ? Do you think there would be too much room in wheel wells with 35's .

Great pics guys.

Questions/ cocerns.

1st I just want to say it looks great!

1) What parts come with the kit?

2) my concern is the factory rim width of 7.5" and 12.50 wide tire. i though you had to run at least a 8" wide rim to run a 12.50 wide tire. ???

3) What do you use for shocks?

4) How does it ride vs stock?

5) Did those 37's hit the fenderwells or airdam in the front?

6) How did Chirs fit the 35's on his truck without lifting it? How much do they stuff into the fender wells?

I didn't think the I-5 could turn tires that large without taxing the engine too much. But damn it looks nice.

A couple of concerns, how does it affect the get-up-and go? How does it affect side hilling? How does it affect handling in the twisties. I live in the mountains, going from a Mini S to the Hummer has been a hard adjustment. I drive straight up the mountains every day, how's the I-5 do with that much tire?

Awesome package!

That looks great. I really got interested in that kit from the other thread and did some checking on their website last night but they still don't have any information on it. I'd love something like that with 35s on mine. The power issue has me a little concerned with anything bigger than that.

Hey, I forgot a question, what about that winch mount? Is it removable? (no need to run around with the winch all the time when I don't need it)

Oh, and I'm sold. </div></BLOCKQUOTE> I looked for about 3 weeks straight before I purchased my 35s and I belive that Procomp and Mickey Thompson are the only 2 companies that carry a 35" tire(at that time) in 16s that you can buy that will fit the stock width I had to go with a 315/75/16. That way I didn't have to take any chances with the tire rim being to narrow. I have even had them all the way down to 15lbs for trail riding and no problems at all with the trying to seperate from the rim.

I am going to run the 35s on mmine with the lift, I think it will look great, should have way more flex than you could want and wont tax the motor that much at all.
