Rough Country 2.5" Lift Kit for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK - 656

Fairly easy to install, it took me about 3 hours with just a jack and jack stands in my driveway. Clears 33’s easily. Would definitely recommend if your looking for a budget lift to gain a little ground clearance or for bigger tires

It is great in performance and installation was quick and easy.

I asked a local shop I wanted a 2.5" lift and they were going to charge me $900 to install spacers like these. I decided to save my money and get these to do the work myself. These are perfect for anyone wanting to run slightly larger tires on their Jeep while not looking for a functional change but rather, an aesthetic modification. They're relatively easy to install even without a lift but they will be slightly more time consuming as a result. I went from running the stock 255/75 R18s to 285/65 R18s - so while the pictures may seem as there's only a subtle change, it is in fact quite noticeable in person or when trying to hop into it. It looks like a bad @ss tank now and I love it.

2018 Jeep Wrangler

Did just as expected. Solid Spacers And hardware. Went on easily in about 2 hours with hand tools. Fit my 2015 wrangler perfectly.

Cheap product do not buy

It is what it is. Raised my 2007 Wrangler Unlimited 2" and leveled it out. The pucks are steel and seem to be of good quality. The shock brackets seem a little flimsy, but are adequate. The kit came with brake line relocation brackets. The rear was easy to install, but I had trouble with the front. You have to bend the solid section of the brake line to get the brackets to work and I didn't want to go through the hassle of that and possibly breaking the brake line. Maxed out travel doesn't put to much tension on the front lines anyway. Down travel is limited by the socks. The kit was easy to install and only took a couple hours by myself and a few beers. This was an affordable solution until I could afford the Rock Krawler 3.5" X Factor lift.

Going with a budget lift I didn't expect top quality on anything. The instructions are abysmal! Rough country has apparently changed the front shock extension hardware to a different size bolt. Requiring a different size socket. Instructions say to use 18mm socket. Several of the bolts are 18mm head size but not the shock relocation bolt. An hour wait with Rough Country customer service and he couldn't tell me what was right or wrong. The bolt is the two anodized bolts requiring 19mm. Do not tighten them until you get the shocks aligned into the new bracket holes. I learned the hard way! Reinstall your sway bar end links with the vehicle on the ground. Keep organized with your tools because every bolt you replace will be different than the stock size heads! The instructions are black and white photos and grainy.On the rear, good luck fitting your fingers above the upper spring mount to install the puck hardware. Use your best judgement on where to use a washer. They won't say when to or show you. Do yourself a favor and go ahead and remove the rear sway bar end links too. Reinstall these by jacking up the rear axle before you put the vehicle on the ground. Reconnect your track bar on the ground and have someone jump on your running boards or bumper to wiggle the bolt in place.Kit is installed, ride height is excellent. My wife wants one now, will I go with this brand again? Now that I did it once probably so. Just beware that the hardware included is a guessing game and just take your time using your best judgement. Have multiple socket sets, ratchets and wrenches or impacts.
