Hi all.

2021 ram sport, crew cab, 4wd. New to this forum. I am looking to either lift or level my truc, I do have to park in parking garage at work, max height is 6.8 feet. Ideal would be a 3.5 lift with 35 tires. It seems the more I read the more confused I get. Will only be doing road driving, no off road. Just like the look. Presently considering the 3.5 rough country n3/v2.

Thank you.

Rough country has a poor reputation and isn’t known for good ride quality.

3.5” is too much lift for your front end, you need to either keep it under 3” (look at bilstein 5100s and JBA upper control arms) or get a quality 4” bracket lift, like Zone or BDS.

As @mrack said but I’ll add 3 1/2” of lift on the 5th Gen truck will destroy the front end.
Ill follow with I wouldn't put Rough Country on anything even if it was free. People that are proud to represent an unsafe. Bad riding suspension components to save tiny money I will never understand but I continue to do my part in keeping our families safe on the roads.

I also have Rough Country 3.5 lift on 2 trucks with over 80,000 mi on them and no issues, rides like stock. Another vote for “go for it”.
