Description

Elevate your Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 4WD with the Tuff Country 34217KN 4.5" Long Arm Lift Kit. This bolt‑on suspension upgrade is built for off‑road enthusiasts who want improved ride quality, enhanced articulation, and the ability to run larger tires with confidence.

  • Lift height: 4.5" front lift with rear blocks to maintain a balanced stance, enabling room for larger tires while preserving drivability on or off the road.
  • Long‑arm design: Optimized geometry delivers smoother body control, better wheel travel, and improved handling across rough terrain.
  • Shocks included: SX8000 nitro gas shocks are included for dependable damping and consistent performance in daily driving and on rough trails.
  • Rear axle compatibility: Rear blocks are designed to fit both 3.5" and 4" rear axle tubes for flexible installation on a range of Ram configurations.
  • Durable joints: Greasable and rebuildable Flex Joints reduce suspension binding and extend component life under demanding use.
  • Steering & alignment: Pitman arm and track bar relocation brackets are included to preserve steering geometry after the lift.
  • Tire clearance: Allows up to 36" x 12.5" tires, giving your Ram a bold, capable presence on and off the pavement.
  • Installation: Simple bolt‑on design that minimizes downtime and includes the necessary brackets and hardware.
  • Warranty: Backed by Tuff Country’s limited lifetime warranty for long‑term peace of mind.
  • Fitment notes: Specifically designed for 2003–2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 4WD; not compatible with Off‑Roadster models that leave the factory with a lift.

The 4.5" long‑arm lift enhances ride quality by reducing bump steer and increasing suspension articulation, so you can tackle rough trails with more confidence. With built‑in tire clearance for 36" tires, your Ram gains both stance and capability, while the SX8000 shocks deliver reliable damping across a variety of surfaces. This kit combines proven Tuff Country engineering with easy bolt‑on installation, a strong warranty, and components designed to withstand demanding off‑road use.
