Does anyone live in or close to South MS that wants to trade out the stock suspension for a Rough Country 6” lift? I also have 35x12.50R20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 20x10 Fuel Vandal wheels. My job has changed to where I drive more. I need to go back to stock height.

To be honest. I’m not sure how possible it is to return to stock. To install the 6” the stock front cross member brackets had to be cut off.

From the install instructions

35. On the front side of the driver rear crossmember mount, measure 1” from the cam tab and mark. See Photo 31.
36. Using a reciprocating saw, cut the crossmember mount off using the mark made in step 35. Sand and paint cut edg-
es to prevent rust.
37. On the front side of the driver rear crossmember mount, measure down 1.5” from the cam bolt hole and cut the in-
side corner off. Sand and paint cut edges to prevent rust. See Photo 32. PHOTO 31

38. On the front side of the pass rear crossmember mount, measure down 1.5” from the cam bolt hole and mark. Also, mark a line straight down from the inner cam tab, creating a triangle. See Photo 33.
39. Using a cutoff wheel, cut along the marks made in step 38. This is done for clearance of the supplied rear cross- member. Check the clearance by placing the supplied rear crossmember in the factory control arm pockets. Sand and paint cut edges to prevent rust See Photos 34 & 35.

40. Install the supplied driver rear diff bracket using the factory hardware. Torque to factory specs using an 18mm sock- et. See Photo 36.

If you find out for sure you can go back to stock I'm in New Orleans.

Just stick a 4” strut spacer in there and run some 32-33” non aggressive tire and then you don’t have to give up everything. And they do make some bigger P rated tires I believe in 33” ish sizes also to down on the tire weight.

Spot on. Don’t think you reverse that easily.
