    Has anyone bought or has the Rough Country (sku745N2) 3inch lift? Is this worth buying?
    Any feed back would be appreciated?

    I myself don't have the Rough Country 3", but after about 1.5 years of daily reading in this suspension thread religiously I haven't come across too many people who have it. Maybe that is an indicator of some sort. I'd stick with the popular 3" solutions, ie: fox/icon/king coilovers, OME, etc.
    Hope that was of some use.

    I just installed the Platinum Fox Coilovers from skyjacker suspensions, I would say my truck rides smoother now than factory. Also, in my opinion the 3" lift is the performance way to go and to still get the facelift you want.

    Thanks man, they're actually 275/60/20. I got a sweet deal when I got the rims. I would like to upgrade to the 285s sometime down the road, but at this point the toyos should last me a good 50k miles. Not to mention I have absolutely no rubbing issues on any terrain

    Oh, they look way bigger than that pic! I want to upgrade as well. But so much money. I'd have to get a 3" lift too.
