Rough Country 5-Inch Suspension Lift Kit for Dodge Ram 1500 4WD (2002–2005)

Give your 2002–2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD authentic off‑road capability without sacrificing everyday driveability. This Rough Country 5-inch suspension lift kit is a complete bolt‑on solution—no cutting or welding required—that unlocks significant ground clearance and paves the way for up to 35-inch tires with the right wheel spacing. As New Zealand’s official Rough Country importer, Magwarehouse.com stocks this kit ready to ship, backed by local support in our Manukau workshop.

What’s included

• Lifted knuckles to maintain proper front-end geometry at ride height
• Heavy‑duty differential drop brackets and sway‑bar links
• Bump stop extensions and a sub-frame assembly
• Reinforced front and rear steel crossmembers
• Fabricated rear blocks (designed to outperform cast‑iron alternatives)
• Rough Country N3 shocks — nitrogen‑charged, 10‑stage variable damping with a beefy 54mm body for better heat management

The kit is engineered to level out the Ram’s factory rake from front to rear, delivering a cleaner, more aggressive stance while preserving everyday handling and comfort. For installation, a torsion bar removal tool is recommended to streamline the process.

Why this kit stands out

• Bolt‑on simplicity: designed for a straightforward install with no cutting or welding required, so you can get back on the road faster.
• Genuine off‑road capability: elevated stance and upgraded components deliver real trail performance without compromising on daily drivability.
• Durable, purpose‑built hardware: fabricated rear blocks and reinforced crossmembers stand up to demanding terrain and frequent use.
• Reliable damping: Rough Country N3 shocks provide consistent, heat‑tolerant damping across rough terrain and highway cruising, maintaining control when it matters most.
• Strategic geometry: lifted knuckles preserve steering feel and front‑end geometry, helping maintain predictable handling as you push into the dirt or climb steep grades.
