  • 5" Front Lift / 3" Rear Lift: Adds solid height to the vehicle, enabling larger tires and improved approach/departure angles while preserving overall balance.
  • Includes SX8000 Shocks: Front and rear SX8000 shocks are paired with the lift to deliver enhanced damping and ride control on and off the trail.
  • Relocation Brackets & Extensions: DS and PS radius arm relocation brackets, track bar relocation bracket, front brake line extensions, ABS relocation brackets, and bump stop extensions—designed to maintain proper geometry and articulation.
  • Rear Blocks, U-bolts, and Hardware: Heavy-duty rear blocks, 5/8" x 3 5/8" x 17" round U-bolts, and a complete hardware bag with poly/sleeve components for a secure install.

Built to replicate a factory-like ride without compromising off-road durability, this Tuff Country lift kit is a practical, long-term upgrade for capable Ford trucks.
