5-Inch Suspension Lift Kit with N3 Shocks

The Rough Country 43130-DHTP is a 5-inch suspension lift kit engineered to provide your Ford Ranger or Mazda B-Series 4WD with a commanding, aggressive appearance and impressive off-road capabilities. Designed for 1998-2011 models, this kit offers increased ground clearance, allowing for improved capability over various terrains. This kit includes Rough Country's nitrogen-charged N3 shocks, known for their durable construction and smooth performance. These shocks feature 10-stage variable valving, an 18mm spring-loaded piston rod, a large 54mm shock body, and reinforced seals for longevity. The kit also incorporates upper control arm cam bolts, which simplify the process of achieving a proper alignment after the lift is installed. Installation of this kit requires minor cutting and has an estimated time of 6-8 hours. It is important to note several fitment considerations: 17-inch or larger wheels are REQUIRED. This kit does NOT fit models with 11.25-inch rotors found on some 1998-2003 models, nor does it fit models with a 31-spline rear axle. Models with 11.25-inch rotors will need an upgrade to 12.1-inch rotors. Additionally, vehicles equipped with pulse vacuum hub (PVH) ports routed through the knuckle must be converted to manual hubs. An upgraded drive shaft is highly recommended, and a torsion bar tool is required for installation. Specialty tools may be necessary for models with vacuum-operated hubs, as detailed in the provided instructions. This lift kit is compatible with the following vehicles: 1998-2011 Ford Ranger 4WD, 2004 Ford Ranger Tremor 4WD, 2005 Mazda B3000 4WD, 2003-2009 Mazda B4000 4WD, 2001-2002 Mazda B3000 4WD, 1999-2001 Mazda B4000 4WD, and 1998-1999 Mazda B3000 4WD. Rough Country also backs this kit with a Lifetime Replacement Guarantee.
