That hole he drilled with 5/8 drill bit was very close to the edge
Was just thinking that.
I thought the same thing. A few comments here about that. Looked dangerous
Seems to be the same on the other videos ive seen. Does look sketchy
at 15:07 looks like he had to wallow out the hole further from the edge. Might have had the template in the wrong spot.
He had two centerpunch marks to choose from, he chose the wrong one. Personally, I would have drilled my holes first, then adjust my cut line to leave 1.5× the hole dia to the edge. But what do I know? I just prefer my shit not fall apart while driving.
In other words, get this professionally installed
Kingy B some kids know their stuff 😂
@@jayweathers9295 sadly not *this kid*
😂😂
LXIX Turner lol
@@LXIXTurner you watch this ten times and go under your vehicle you’ll be straight I just got done putting my lift on I bought the truck in September and ordered the lift the day after I bought the truck got it three weeks later the longest wait was getting time off to do it
What would they charge for labor though I’d assume a metric ass load?
It's not mentioned in the video, but I'd say it's important to put some paint on any bare metal once the cutting and drilling is done
Whoever buys this lift probably won't have the truck long enough to worry about rust
@@P4X1279 why
Not gonna lie... that 5/8" hole that was drilled looked a little sketchy with how little steel was left on that top side.
i thought the exact same thing.. NO WAY i would trust that
Wow.. I seen that and thought screw that I'd rather keep it stock!
he drilled the wrong punch mark. yes very sketch.
I seen that to
Can you say step drill???
i did not expect this to be an HOUR 😂
I’m a Readylift kinda guy but Rough Country has come along way. Nice vid.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! -Zach
I seen other professional shops install those rear shocks upside down just like the other competition shocks Fox, Bilstein and King rough country says to install them with the body facing down I noticed my truck was too bouncy so I flipped them around and no more bounciness
I installed a 3 1/2 in leveling strut spacer with a 1/4 in Lean spacer ( extra 1/2 in) for a total of 4 in lift on my 2012 F-150 FX4, added a rear block, and my truck looks and rides great, with 35 in Yokos on 20's , so glad I didn't have to go through all that drama, and my truck is fully functional, even on off-road trails, so don't let anybody tell you what can't be done!!!
Hey id really like to see your truck and what amount of rear block setup you have.
Me too! I just bought a 2012 F-150 FX4!
not a fan of blocks, looks shitty
Control arms probably banging on the down travel
Good work
Just place my order Can’t wait
Thanks Big Bro- appreciate the business! -Justin
So no vacuum pump for iwe actuator on 09-14?
I just purchased a used F-150 that already had a self leveling kit so I was researching a 4" lift kit to see if the extra 2" is worth it...I don't think so but my girlfriend said it would definitely be worth it if I added 2 inches to something else...Dooooeeee!
We could all use an extra 2 inches… on the truck too
She's a keeper
😂
2+2........
Great job 👏
Thanks for watching! -Zach
But how are your transfer case seals after some mileage?
14:14 that’s a little too close to the edge bud
That's what you get when someone who's inexperienced or simply doesn't give a shit. It could be both in this case, who knows? Cheap labor isn't skilled and skilled labor isn't cheap. You get what you pay for. The fact that they did it AND left it in the video tells me all I need to know about these yayhoos.
I’d considered that entire frame fucked by that point. Jesus.
14:10 wtf..........: really
Singing a drill at high speed isn't the move here. Would have been better with a clean pilot hole and finished off with a step bit. More than likely that drill walked.
I just box Fox 2.0 front and rear suspension to level my 2020 F150. If I decide to lift it later will I still be able to use the Fox Suspension?
Does it matter if I change the front shocks for the lift
Would this be all be the same process if I was to get like a 7 or 8 inch rc lift if they make those?
You guys (mechanics) are fucking mind blowing cause man I swear I take some of this shit off my truck lol boyyyy let’s just say I ain’t gonna have a few pieces afterwards tryna put it back together
Please answer to me soon how many inches is the block on the back for lift the rear please thanks
shouldn't you wait until the truck is on the ground, with the shocks/struts loaded, before tightening them? wouldn't your way damage the bushings and such?
Definitely would cause premature failure if not addressed, but since it needs alignment, I'd venture to say that they will all be reset while on the rack. Let's hope.
Is there a video with this lift except with the lifted struts?? I just bought the rough country full 4inch lift with the lifted struts instead of the strut spacers
Uhh, Not That Much Difference... If ya can't figure that out..... Put The Tools Down... Step Away.!!!!
What brand / model wheel are these and what size? Thank you. 🇺🇸
i subscribed!!!!!👍🏻
I thought the 4" lift came with steel braided brake lines? Mine has them
This dude be smilin through out the video, his vibe makes this video look easy to do 🔥🔥
I know you added a spacer on the drive-shaft, but wouldn't 4" drop put big-time strain on that front at the differential and at the upper end?
Doubt it matters a lot, but the instructions actually call for the RC block to go on the BOTTOM, not the top. And that is how mine has been for years.
just an FIY the CV nut is one time use, as well as upper balljoint nut too.
little blue Loctite and your good
great video....good job .. every single step ..how too👍🏻👍🏻✌
This is a form of art.
Don’t forget the alignment!!!
This is very involved but very clear. But why the music?
Best install video on TH-cam....GREAT JOB!!!
Thanks for watching!!!
@@americantrucks I'm doing a 6" rough country on an 06 f150, 4wd. You gave me the confidence I need to complete the job. I'm halfway there...
with a 6 inch lift, do i need new upper control arms? or will they be level
😂 i just installed mine and the control arms are rubbing my struts
What happens if you put the lower end of the block tords the back?
It would cause the front and rear universal joints to be at different angles. This would introduce driveline vibrations and cause the universal joints to fail sooner.. >;)
What is the size of the rear blocks?
Looks like a 2”, but not sure
Dude, drill technique? How many rpm were you drilling that steel? Do you get one hole per drill bit? Slow and steady wins the race, buddy
Should have used a step drill instead!
And nobody stopped him
Rim and tire setup? 🤔
What overall height would a 3” or 4” lift with 35” tires yield on a 2018 F150? Would anybody know that info?
I have that exact kit, 4" lift with 35's. My truck ended up being 6"8', if that helps bro.
@@Ohsee83 Did you do any trimming?
This guy seems pretty new
Someone just loves the sil glyde brake component lube. Just gobs of it on those pads.
So do 35 inch tires fit on the 2wd version with only plastic trimming ?
Did you figure this out?
Matt Ward I never got a definite answer no they might still rub with plastic trimming on sharp turns if I were to guess
Thank for the input!
I wish you guys would state if you have a 2 wheel drive truck your gonna have to have a factory 4x4 rear axle spacer as the 2wd uses no spacer and will have lean to the rear
Hi my friend I just made a 6 "RC , new 35s on 20x12 wheels and tires, but I have a problem, when I pass 65 mph it starts shaking 70+ is worse, with your experience Do you think it is a problem with the RC suspension or with a new alignment and balancing will solve the problem?
That’s definitely your tires bro lmao
@@pro-impulse2831 it was the wheel spacers, not the tires.
great job
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Where can i find upper strut spacers?
They should be an option when you order their lift otherwise idk
On second thought, 3 out of 3 wrenches lol!
anyone know where i can find this but for a 2010 4wd?
You just watched it. ..
the steering is different on the 2014 trucks
What about a 2006 f150 xlt
I don't understand why they don't powder coat knuckles from the factory.
Dam son what else can you do
With this kit are u able to return to stock if desired? Any cutting?
Nope. The cross members have been cut off. It’s permanent. Now you can go up in lift size but this is as low as it can get.
N now I'm going to lunch for a whopper n pay 10 pesos.😂😂😁
It's insane how easy you complete this complex procedure.
yeah my harbor freight impact ain't gettin this job done.
Good content BUT HATE 2 second music looping for 54 MINUTES - drove me INSANE
Looks like a pain in the a$$ to install.
Truck skipped leg day without some new 17's with 35's
I want install a lift kit on my truck but after seeing this video dang I'll probably die before it's finished
Just go with a 3in suspension lift. It's way easier. The extra inch you gain from the 4in lift is not worth all this work.
if your going to do all that work go w/ a 6" lift
14:24 jeez, no meat left on the outer edge of that hole. Better hope the customer never sees this video!
If I saw that thin piece of medal I’d be legitimately scared to drive it
good job, looks great, personally I don't really like following all these lifted trucks. even with lower cost kit, your looking at another 3k for wheels and tires. Ya could be extra fun for mudding, but that is about it. I have mine leveled by lowering rear and performance tires, nitto 420's. happy happy
Or you could just level it and put on the 35s and it’s basically a 3.5” lift for half the price.
Tell me more because I can't afford this haha. What leveling kit would you suggest?
Sure but you fuck your cv angles
Let the real mechanic make the video next time
where is the before and after pic????? WTH
At the 0:05 mark of the video! -Zach
Unless your 100% proficient fully with all the tools and processes pay a professional 4x4 shop
So is no one gonna talk about his tattoos? They're fuckin nice man js
This shits funny, he labels this a 2 wrench difficulty but a 2 inch lift kit that only requires 2 hours of labor is a 3.
**WARNING** DO NOT ATTEMPT INSTALL IN RUST BELT
Nice video but dear God get rid of that background music!
You did all of that and you didn't even show it how it looked like at the end? Hello🙄
We show you how the truck looks with this installed at the beginning of the video. 👀 -Zach
Is hard to find shop will do this with out fk up you truck... find a good shop is hard part
All that and u use stock struts that's y they suck
Hes not a real mechanic real mechanics swear every other bolt
Looks like a good way to ruin a perfectly good truck.
Different strokes for different folks! Thanks for watching! -Zach
Do away with the music and the over-enthusiastic bouncy pace…. Get the feeling the narrator has never even held a wrench but is just reading a script….
Rough Country is junk.
adrian sims looks to be comparable to other strut spacer lifts.
Absolutely agreed buddy. I don't know how they are still in business. Their quality is piss poor to say the least. I think it's hilarious when people put a cheap lift on an expensive truck. I got a 6" Pro Comp on my 2018 and it rides smooth as stock.
pro comp is junk too
Good work
