I decided to go the budged friendly route of getting a rough country lift with the N3 shocks. I have used rough country in the past for all my Toyotas so i figured why not. All the other ride quality experience i had worked out well. After install (`$1,400{lift+install+control arm brackets+alighn}) i picked the truck up. Man it sure did look good lifted with bigger tires. 10 out of 10. I drove off and realized it was really rough on the road. I figured maybe for some reason it needed to to break in. Since that day it has not. The ride quality is rough....really rough imo. I knew going in i would not have the factory ride quality as i did not expect that. I only use my jeep on road. While driving down the road when hitting bumps and cracks ect(not pot holes) the truck will shake like the suspension is not taking any dampening. If i happen to hit multiple bumps in a row the truck will shift left/right like i was on ice for a split second and then back to normal after the bumps. I have taken it to another offroad shop just to double check everything. They said it looked good and the alignment was good. I am not sure if i have something defective or this is just the ride quality to expect. I have thought about purchasing different shocks from another manufacture however i do not want to do this and the quality does not change due to the stiffness coming from the springs instead of the shocks. I can only speak from my experience and i will be changing this kit out in the future. It is just too rough.
