    I know they're just for for looks but are they better then stock? I've been hitting mountain fire roads everyother weekend. After I get my skids I'm saving up to do a full lift just $150s cheap for 3 in


    But yeah are they better then stock or should I trust my stock over em in actually "rough country"

    Not sure how many miles are on em,

    Short answer: No.

    Long answer: Do some research here on the forums. Rough Country isn't well liked amongst the off-road community.

    Thaanks, guess there is such things a stupid questions cause I already read a ton on em a while back. Guess I was wanting someone to say, "thats a great deal" cause I'm a cheap skate but guess it's not the best to try and skimp with a bad ass investment

    Couldn't figure out how to delete this thread

    Bumper, Winch, 315s, Sliders, OME HD lift, Custom rear swingout, roof rack, drawers, way too much to list.
    You can get front 5100s for about $220, use stock springs until you can upgrade, get an Add a leaf for the rear for $100 and spend $175 for the rear 5100s. I know it's almost $500 but you would be much better off with a setup like this, just don't set the front too high without UCAs at least not for too long. Or find a used setup on here.

    A used spacer lift for $150? :bananadead:

    They do not improve the suspension so to answer your question, no. They are not better than stock. It will lift your truck for more clearance, but that's it. They add no extra capability to your trucks suspension.
