Rough country 3.5 in lift with leaf springs

Did you get the full leaf pack? I have an eibach lift already but I'm trying to find more information on the leaf pack. The site doesn't say anything about load ratings. I assume if it's for a 3 inch lift it should be able to hold a good bit of weight.

 

Yes full kit with leaf pack.

 

So does it hold weight well? I regularly carry a few hundred pounds

 

I can’t really give an honest answer, I don’t carry much or that often, however when I tow my friends boat they hold up well. If weight is a concerne you may want to opt for the Ivon RXT pack. As for sag, these have not sagged a bit. Rubber bushings squeak from time to time though only complaint I have.

 

Did you take the bushings out and lubricate them before installing the springs?

 

No, there was instruction to do so. The springs already had bushings installed. I know springs with poly bushings ship with them out so you can grease them before install.

 

il post a fact here on why rough country is junk. all they did was straight up add the thickness off a spacer lift to the shock body itself to gain lift. more or less an overpriced spacer lift at the end of the day. this means yes your suspension is binding up at full droop and your also bottoming out that shock metal on metal because its too long to even touch the bump stops. the only kit they sell worth anything is the vertex kit.

 

All the comments about RC being crap makes me nervous for the RC fog lights and seat covers I just installed

Good to know I should probably avoid this kit though, I was actually looking into this one. 3.5 (or 3??) might be a bit too tall for me though. I'm a short one

 

I have the vertex 3.5, I had those N3 struts before, they rode like crap and I wanted some adjustability.

 

should have said that from the start. the vertex line is a whole different deal. but see what i mean with the n3 struts and even the m1s. straight up improperly designed

 

I’m only installing RC leafs. I hope they are a full 3.5” or I’ll need to add 1/2” spacers on the axles.
I have the BDS 4” which is actually only 3.5”
It was on the truck when I got it, the blocks fucked the rear springs and it appears the axle wrap has damaged the ring and pinion.

I’m not to happy with the previous owners deception.

 

I have an RC 3.5 lift...Mine drives great, Aligned Perfectly with 20x12 -51 offset...
Butttt I don't take it off the pavement and never plan to do that.

 

Your Tacoma is “highway princess!” Only “pretty.”

 

He did. Post 11. Two and a half years ago.

 

It'll do 0 to 60 in 59 seconds though...lol

 

im just gona say he edited after and not admit defeat

 

Hehehehe. Touché.

 

More like "The Fast and The Furious," but with automatic!

 

My spring arrived today but we have a couple days of rain ahead of us so I will install them on Thursday. Do you recall the actual amount of lift you got out of those rear springs?
