First post here, so hello everyone!

I just got a 3.5” rough country lift put on my diesel gladiator and 37x12.5 17 tires. Since I have a heavy metal topper, my rear is about 1.5” lower than the front. Giving that ugly appearance I don’t like with the front up more than the rear.

My question is, is there any add-ons that I can do to get myself a couple more inches in the rear (spacers, etc)? That won’t mess with my rough country kit? Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

Either spacers or different rear springs.

I think you’re gonna have to mess with your rough country kit… your truck will thank you. The more of that RC crap you can remove the better it will be.

I have the similar RC kit for the Mojave and had to replace rear springs with Rancho HD.

I added some more parts not in their kit to correct the rear. Track bar, driveshaft carrier spacer, upper control arms, rear brake lines.

Thanks for all the replies. I will look into bigger springs for the rear. I know RC gets a bad rap, but so far, I enjoy the ride.
