About the 3 Inch Lowering Kit | 5 Inch Rear Lowering | M1 | Ford F-150 4WD…

Lower Your F-150. Elevate Its Attitude: Give your Ford F-150 a bold street-truck stance with Rough Country's 3-Inch Front/5.5-Inch Rear Lowering Kit. Engineered to dramatically reduce ride height while maintaining confident handling and ride quality, this complete suspension system delivers a level, aggressive appearance with a more planted feel on the road. Whether you're building a clean daily driver or a head-turning custom truck, this kit gives your F-150 the low-profile look you're after without sacrificing everyday drivability.

Engineered Suspension Geometry: Lowering your truck takes more than simply reducing ride height. Rough Country's system is engineered around the new suspension position to maintain proper geometry and dependable performance. Alignment-friendly geometry allows your F-150 to be realigned to factory specifications after installation, while optimized CV axle angles help promote smooth drivetrain operation and long-term durability.

Corrected Control Arms for a Proper Drop: Purpose-built control arms feature corrected ball joint angles specifically engineered for the lowered suspension height. This optimized geometry helps your suspension operate properly at the new ride height while providing the strength and control needed for confident everyday driving.

M1 Performance for a Smooth, Controlled Ride: Get the lowered stance you want without giving up the ride you expect. Premium M1 front struts and rear shocks provide responsive damping to help maintain comfort, stability, and controlled handling. Purpose-built suspension components work together to deliver a refined ride while keeping your F-150 firmly planted on the pavement.

Flatter, More Confident Cornering: A lower center of gravity gives your F-150 a more planted feel, while the included rear sway bar increases roll stiffness to help reduce body roll during cornering. The result is flatter, more controlled handling that complements the truck's aggressive lowered stance.

Built to Perform. Backed to Last: Every component is engineered for dependable performance and long-lasting durability, giving you a complete lowering solution designed specifically for your F-150. Best of all, Rough Country's 3-Inch Front/5.5-Inch Rear Lowering Kit is backed by a Limited Lifetime Replacement Warranty against manufacturing and structural defects for added confidence mile after mile.
