Rough Country 62450 2.5in Suspension Lift Kit with Vertex Reservoir Shocks for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
Many states have laws that limit the maximum height of a lifted vehicle. Never exceed the legal height limit.
Wrangler JK: The Rough Country 2.5in Suspension Lift Kit was designed for use with two door Jeeps. The coil springs were specifically tuned for the Wrangler JK, and this kit is not compatible with four door models.
Shock Options: Select from Shock Relocation Brackets, Rough Country’s N3 shocks, V2 Shocks, or their Vertex Remote Reservoir shocks. Shock relocation brackets allow you to run your factory shocks with this lift. N3 shocks provide smooth performance with nitrogen-charged 10-stage variable valving. Vertex shocks feature 8-stage adjustability, and a nitrogen-charged monotube design. The remote reservoir increases fluid capacity, and reduces fade by dissipating heat. The Rough Country V2 shocks feature an aluminum body with a high-pressure monotube construction.
Run Larger Wheels and Tires: Rough Country recommends using 285/75R17, 305/70R17, 295/65R18, or 295/55R20 tires with this kit. You will also need between 4.5” and 5” of backspacing, so if you are using factory wheels, then you will need 1.5” wheel spacers.
Bolt-On Installation: For ease of install, the Rough Country 2.5in Suspension Lift Kit mounts to your Jeep without cutting, drilling, or other modification. It is available with either shock relocation brackets or premium Rough Country shocks.

Rough Country 2.5in Suspension Lift Kit Reviews
Just installed this kit on a 2012 JK and installation was pretty easy . I had about 3 hours total . Instructions a bit vague , need to reuse rear roll bar links in front and purchase new longer links for rear . You do not need longer brake lines as kit includes brackets to drop ( rear ) and raise ( front ) brake line brackets. I also bought rear track bar relocation bracket and V2 steering damper too . Rides nice and smooth , no driveline issues at all . All drive shafts still clear nice .
I installed this lift in my driveway, it took about 3 hours and wasn't difficult. I chose the kit with the shocks. I may have to put longer brake lines for the front brakes because the hard lines will not pull down far enough to install the extension bracket for the OEM lines without fear of bending the hard lines. It looks great and rides great as well. Love and recommend it.
I chose the N3 shocks with this kit. Significantly better on-road performance out of these shocks. I’ve only flexed it out once off-road but it worked great. Nitrogen shocks make a huge difference. Also cool that this kit levels out your Jeep. Seems like a good kit for the price
