HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- I installed a Moto Fab 2.5" Leveling kit on my new 5th Gen 2019 RAM 1500 Big Horn Sport. This kit isn't made for 5th Gen Rams, but it works just fine. No Modifications needed for this kit to work on the new trucks. 10/10 Recommend. Make sure you browse the channel and subscribe, as always, thanks for watching!

To anyone who is going to install this on their truck, regardless of truck year - make sure you get lock-tite for the bolts that come with the spacers. When you go to tighten down the nuts on the spacer bolts without the locktite, it'll just back the bolts out. Locktite fixed the problem. My truck (2019 big horn) came out just like the one in the video. I love it. Ride quality still feels the same like stock.
NEVER rely on a hydraulic floor jack alone, especially one from the China store. Work safe man, use a jack stand.
looks like they barely have any tools as it is
Great video man! One thing I do differently when undoing the upper ball joint, I loosen the nut off until about the last 2-4 threads, and hit the knuckle with my plastic mallet to brake the ballpoint free. Makes chances of destroying the ballpoint boot almost 0. But definitely a very instructive video!
Wish I would have read this comment before trying to install it. Can you replace just the boot? If so do you know the part number? If not, do I just need to replace the whole UCA?
I wish I would have tried this out. The 2” Rough Country was a pain in the ass and it changes the ride due to the nature of the lift (pre-load spacers) keep us posted on your luck with the alignment. I have 4000 miles on my 2” and the tires are cupping. Awesome job!
I just installed the leveling kit on my 2019 Ram 1500 Bighorn, the video was great, i watched it about 20 times before i started the install. I just wish you had shown in the video the re-install, what a work out that was, but i got it done and back together, now i can't find anyone in my area that will align the truck, they all say they don't have the software for the 2019!
Try Belle Tire
I did this in my driveway in about 30 minutes it was so fast I didn’t even wanna make a video of it. That pickle fork part is really bad practice unless you planning on replacing the upper control arm. Why not tap the side of the spindle to free up the ball joint. If there was a challenging part I’d say it would be putting the lower strut bolt back it you’d need someone to assist you. 22mm 21mm 24mm 18mm 10mm 8mm 16mm pry bar and hammer and at-least a 3-4 ton jack with jack stands and he’s right the 4th gen kit works on the 5th. On a side note if you doing this make sure you loosen the upper control arm bolts before removing the upper ball joint and then re tighten when the truck is on the ground if not bye bye control arms in a couple months🤘🏾
Me and my buddies took on this project last weekend. Took us three hours for the first side (some of that waiting for the pickle fork to show up) and an hour on the second side. Got it aligned the next day ( looks like they used 2018 specs) and it drove great. Picked up the Fuel Mavericks in 20” with the BF Goodrich K02’s 275/65R20 (about 34” tall). Looks and rides great! I figure if the ball joints or bushings go out prematurely, I will just upgrade them at a later date. Thanks again for the video, very helpful. I kept wondering why you guys were using the open end wrenches instead of sockets...then I realized that you need to hold the bolt on the bottom with the smaller wrench or socket to keep it from spinning 🤣. One note...make sure that the threaded studs are in good! I had one back out when tightening. Good luck!
William, thanks for your information! I have a 2021 Ram 2WD and wondering If you can provide with the part number so I can do the same thing. Thanks in advance!
@@dennydosramos5102 the link for the part is in the video description. Good luck!
Great video! I noticed when you removed the driver’s side tire that you already have aggressive-looking tires on the oem wheels, even before leveling your truck. Can you please provide the sizes of those tires? I’m guessing no clearance issues with those tires? Thank you.
Im doing it now and for somr reason i cant get the pickle fork to pry it. It stays stuck
First off congrats on owning such a gorgeous pickup. Secondly thank you for posting this video and sharing your new found knowledge. I'm currently shopping around for a 19 Laramie w/sport package, 22" wheels, 12" uConnect & Harman Kardon sound system. Unless I miraculously inherit patience that I could only dream about. If that's the case is going to be a 19 Rebel 12" w/Harman Kardon and pano roof
Robert Miller how’s the Harmen Kardon sound? Is that much better than the 9 speaker alpine in the big horn?
Its way better. 16 speakers with an woofer in the back.....you will have to order it. I did...love my truck
@@Wond3rland___ dont think all big horns come with the alpine but the Laramie came with the premium Alpine and with the subwoofer it sounds pretty sick compared to the stock big horn system
Your truck looks way better now my friend. Use jack stands guys. It saves life
Whatever you guys do, I wouldn’t recommend the 2in rough country leveling kit. I worked a deal and had the dealership install 2in leveling kit and 35x12.50x20 Toyo MT on factory 20s. I don’t rub anywhere at all, perfect clearance. Only issue I have, it’s still nose diving. I just ordered the 2.5 kit used in this video.
Should also do upper control arms designed for a lift, as well as sway bar links designed for a lift. Ball joints will be stressed as they are now at a hard downward angle. Sway bar links will just break as they are now too short.
I purchased my now former ‘21 Ram 1500 Night Edition 4x4 in late 2020. Installed 2.5” level kit as well with 295/55R20 AT tires. Looked so wicked. All my fellow Ram buddy’s along with Chevy and Ford owners gave me nothing but praise on how my Ram looked as well as the color it was which was Granite metallic. I kept the same stock rims and it still looked sharp. Wish I could post a pic of what it looked like. I so happened to sell it this past week. I couldn’t pass up the offer I was given. I look forward to buying another Ram maybe this next time will be 2500 HD Cummins. Liked your vid dude and keep up the good work.
I have the same ‘21 night edition.. color and all. Im planning to get 2.5” level soon! I wish you could post a pic is it!
I’m so glad u did this! I hate that the front is lower on all of the new pickups.
Thanks for the like man! Glad to see people agree.
Wheel alignment should be done after installing lift
Exactly right. They do fit. Just put a 4th gen 2inch level kit on my 5th gen 2019 Ram 1500. Thanks for the vid. Good info
2 inch lift kit only in the front ?? Any in the back ???
Can you clear 35s? Any rubbing?
@@bdbbdb9691 i have 33 on mine stock no lift and they rub a bit
Love the video, but some added advice.
I don't see a jack stand anywhere during this install. For the love of god always have a safety net. That jack fails, or slips, and this typle of install can be a fatality, or extremely expensive and avoidable mishap.
Aside from that, it looks good.
A similar spacer kit on my 5th Gen caused my left isolater to break. So I said screw it and put on FOX 2" SHOCKS.
How you get the strut in? How'd you get the upper control arm connected. You skipped a couple of steps in there to make it an instructional video.
looks great. 👍
Great videos....I did the same level with KO2's on my 2019 Ram this week. Best mod I've done so far. I wish I didn't wait 8 months to do it.
Have you had any issue with it since then ?
I love leveling kits the best they’re the most practical and best performance wise and actually makes the suspension BETTER. After the level and actual lift kit I’m not a fan of. Had one truck was so damn slow then with big heavy tires was just a slow ass gas guzzler this won’t affect any of that
Wouldn't a good spring compressor have done the job? Wouldn't have had to bust all that stuff off. Compress the spring, 3 top bolts, bottom bolt and it probably would've come right out.
I was thinking of using this same kit on mine, just wanted to know how you find suspension afterwards, does it put any additional stress on ball joints, tie rods, or stabilizer links.
Great video.
Ok so small problem if you use the motofab spacer or any solid spacer. Your supposed to switch LH to RH bc the spacer makes you turn the Strut 180 degrees. This can become a annoying squeaking sound. It's best to buy the triangle type that way the come off and go on the same way.
Stephen Allen are you saying if you use the round spacers put the driver side strut on the passenger side and visa versa?
I saw the ready lift 3.5 inch lift kit and from some pictures i really dont trust the product as they look cheap. Thx for the advice man plan on picking up a black edition bighorn soon so this was really helpful when i need to pick up a lift kit keep up the good work man 👌🏾
Did you ever get th truck? I’m looking at 2020 rn same model tho
JACK STANDS!
I got a 2019 ram classic bighorn and just got the same leveling kit and this video is gonna help out a lot
Did you do it yet? I’m thinking of doing the same thing for mine.
@@hubertantenor4956 yes it took about 2 1/2 to 3 hours with Basic garage tools LOL..... truck looks a lot better than before
Is your ram a 4wd or rwd?
@@coreyward5157 thank you 🙏🏾
What size tires did you go with?
@@hubertantenor4956 your welcome and 4wd.... I went with the 285/60/20 on stock rims..... still have room to go up a bigger size if I wanted but I like the way it sits now
Does this add extra wear on other front end components? I do a lot of driving and just wondering if I should use this spacer or go with a leveling strut. Thanks
Had one on my 2016 Ram 1500 drove over 50,000 miles. At least 30% in true 4x4 mode doing earthwork for government jobs. Never had a single problem. Got 75K miles out of my 35 Hankook all terrain stock rims. Took the plastic air diverted off and makes it look even meaner. Cheap fixes.
Great Video! Good job! I just purchased a 2019 1500 and also was having a problem finding a 2.5. Thanks for sharing!
Thank You!
@@DOOWORKPRODUCTIONS Great video man !! How many miles on the level kit now and have you had any ball joint failure to date ? I've heard that you shouldn't go over 2 inches or there wil be issues with ball joints
@@MarkB-zt9jm No issues what so ever!
I just ordered the same kit. Was wondering on what you think would be best size tire to put on the stock 18in rims. I like your tire size but yours are 20s I think it sits perfect. Perfect set up. Also perfect video. Looks great
I'm about to do the same to my 2019 Ram pick-up. I have the Lone Star edition. If I may, how has the ride on your held up since installation? Thanks in advance.
You don't need a pickle fork you just use the hammer on the strike zone of the upper control zone. You don't need to take any wires off just pull the abs like little push pull tab out and you have enough room. And im sure there is some sort of difference between years motofab would just say from years 10 to 21 not waste money on r and d new tooling to make a new style if the old ones were rite for the new Gen. I'm sure you could find a 6 lug wheel you could bolt to your hubs too just because the holes line up don't mean it's rite
Started doing this project last night on my 2019 Ram 1500. The instructions are spot on. Thank you very much!
Unfortunately I damaged the boot on the driver's upper control arm. Is it possible to only replace the boot without replacing the entire upper control arm?
Yes, I'd assume so!
Do you have the off road package in yours. I also have a motofab 2" inch level in mine with off road package. It has that 1 inch factory lift. I'm being told now that the leveling kits aren't recommended in the off road package and was hoping you or could elaborate as to why?
No, I don't have the offroad package.
I'm being told the same thing, I just bought a Laramie, offroad package, like yesterday, pick it up friday after berliner install, i inquired about leveling with the moto fab spacers and they are saying these wont work, because it has a 1" lift in front already, with stock uca's, so basically they are telling me you will be at 3.5" lift in front on stock uca's and that will wear out ball joints fast, this is all what I'm being told by dealer, when I receive the truck tomorrow I will do some crawling underneath and report back
@@chasenash3862 You find anything out about this? Looking at a 19 ram with offroad package and want to level it. What is the best solution?
How they lifted the ORP trucks was just adding a longer spring and strut and these motofabs do work on the rebel trim so it will work on any other trim with the ORP, if you measure from the center hub of wheel up to the lip of the fender and its 22 inches you can add a space or even 22.5 is fine if its over that then no the 2.5 inch lift will not work, my rebel is 24.5" in back and 22" in front, so 2.5 inch would level it flat with no rake and my rebel has the factory lift so they say well its a rebel and they all come with the ORP..... thats what makes it a rebel it is the ram for off road.... and yes my dealership first thing was " you want a level kit added" "we can do it for you" ... so your dealership well not very smart about rams....
Hey man, thanks for doing this. I have the 2019 big horn, 6.5 bed. Have same bright white. What are your thoughts on bilstein 5100 leveling shocks ram 2019 to gain 2+ inches? Currently have 18" looking to put 35x12.5x20"s nittos with wheels negative 18. Have you noticed a difference in ride? Thanks again. Dropping $$ next week. Ouch
Ride quality stayed the same for the most part. Can't really tell a difference. Very happy with how it turned out. I have never used Bilstein 5100's but I hear good things about them! Good luck with your new setup!
I had the Bilstein 5100s on my 2016 Sport and it road better then stock. It was actually a 2.75” lift in the front. Unfortunately they aren’t out yet for the 2019s but hopefully by the end of 2019 they will be. I am getting anxious though. I may have to do this leveling kit first. I have a 2019 bighorn sport now
Is it true that with this leveling kit the strut will wear out faster ? I’ve heard that this is not really a reliable leveling kit , this is the only thing from stopping me to buy it , i do have a 4gen ram 1500
Just to update some of you that might be interested, i did install the leveling kit and YES it is true that with time the balljoint will wear out faster..so to help you on your decision i will post the pic before and after the leveling kit
Sweet looking truck!! Well done sir!! Well done.
Thank you!
Did I miss your Jack stands.?
Only thing I didn't like is you skipped over the part where you reinstalled the strut in my experience that is difficult but I will try it thanks for proving the 4th will work
That suspension looks identical to my 2016! Only difference, the sway bar is on the back.
That's right, for 2019 they moved the sway bar to the back..
@@DOOWORKPRODUCTIONS do you know if it is the same struts used in the 4th gens?
No, they are different.
Got a 2020 lonestar/bighorn. Definitely inspired to do the 2.5 level. Pick up looks so sexy. Hope my max steel color looks just as good as this white on once complete.
Do you have the offroad springs? Anyway you could grab a measurement from the center of the wheel cap to the fender? I have a 2020 built to serve and fca installed the wrong front springs. I see you have the offroad shocks so I'm assuming your springs are offroad as well. My shocks are the offroad but springs in the front are the standard 1500 2wd springs. Trying to get it resolved. But interested to see what your height is. I'm 21.5 in front and 23.5 in the rear. Thanks.
Did you experience any issues with the stock UCA? I’m not planning on any major off road action so I’m not sure aftermarkets are necessary for me. Just want better curb appeal. Awesome looking truck!
Nope all good! Thank You!
Damn that upper ball joint is toast
Should have got Bilstein 5100 you will see in a year or two when your replacing your shafts and front suspension.
This truck is 5 years old lol I get a new one every year. Never keep a truck over 20,000 miles.
hey there i'm about to install the same kit on my 2017 , great video and really nice truck.. one question tho since i'll be doing this on my own, so the bolt supplied with the kit will go to secure the strut and the bolt that were on the strut will go to secure the spacers on strut instead ? have you had any issue with the balljoints ? thanks !
Yes, that's correct! And no I don't have any balljoint issues..
That looks Clean! Brotha,Would doing that Void warranty from Dealership?
Thanks, and I'm not sure about that..
Do you know the height it sits now to the middle of the fender with the 35s? I want to upgrade to a 2019 I have a 2017 now with 20x12 and 35s and was wondering if with the level it sits where mine does with a level. Thank you.
What is the reason that you changed only the front ones? Why didn’t you change the rear ones or is it not necessary to do willow coughing?
Hello having this 2.5 level. Have you had issues with the UCA and ball joint. What sizes tires did you have. I have those same rims. Any rubbing issues. Ty
No issues at all!
It is definitely confusing. It is a 50/50 spacers to spacers plus uca. To much stress on the ball joint. Yet you are saying you have no issues. Do you have 285’s on
@@frankf2915 Yes.
I just got my Limited lifted on a 9inch lift and stack a 1.5 spacer in the fron on of the coli so 10.5 inchs has 40x12.50R22x14 thing is mad slow needs a regear and maybe a few bolt ons.
aFe magnum intake helps with hp some
ruclips.net/video/-laLkYAW8sU/видео.html
Can you not remove the top strut bolts with the vehicle on the ground, then jack it up and the whole suspension will drop enough for you to get the spacer in?? didn't think you had to undo all the suspension components.
I was wondering the same damn thing.....anybody know? Bump this question?
why did u remove caliper? ive done several of these kits myself but never removed caliper usually let rotor caliper and all just drop down while removing the strut but I have not done new ram yet, I will in 2 days so was wondering why caliper was taken off?
Just got a leveling kit on my 2019 ram 1500 today and my wheel well covers look like yours now. Do you know of any covers I can use to cover everything again? Great video by the way!
Thanks for video and I am attempting to copy your approach on my 2020. Question- would you use the BF Goodrich tires again? Do the front tires rub the undercarriage or wheel well.?
Yes I would, I love these tires.. And yes it does only when I run my 2" wheel spacers..
I'm more interested in the Jello Wrestling!!!!!! Very VERY SWEET TRUCK, you paid a lot of money for that truck why put the cheapest crap on it? Pony up 5k and put KING shocks with the bypass all the way around that will give you 3 inches and a ton of wheel travel. True suspension, and now you can run those raptor's down, literally!!! Swap out those upper and lower control arms, stock ball joints blow very easy. Awesome truck that white looks bad ass..
Thanks.. I don't go off road so those bad ass shocks and suspension components are not necessary for me. Its just a daily driver, and my winter vehicle.
would there be no problem getting these tires without a leveling kit and just keeping it stock? i’m from the detroit area, any good tint shops/tire shops you recommend?
Yes, you do not need the leveling kit for these tires in this size. However, it does give you more clearance and looks better IMO. For Tint Shops I use a guy out of Grand Blanc, Mi and his company is HiTek Tint. His number is (248) 895-0831. For Tire shops, I use Jiminez Tire in Pontiac, Mi. Tell them both I sent you and they will hook you up! Thanks!
Any issues with tire size? Im setting up to do this same exact configuration. Tires are already here, so Im hoping no issues
Did you do it yet?
@@hubertantenor4956 Yes sir...Absolutely love it. Zero issues, looks great
@@robz4825 do you have a 2wd? I want to know if I cans do this on my truck. I have 35x12.50R20 setup already
@@hubertantenor4956 I have 4WD
I was told with the 285s you have to reset your speedometer or it is off. Did you do that? Cost? Dealer do it or tire shop?
So I'm guessing that Ram has the truck from the factory with the nose down for gas mileage
I wonder what the difference this makes in mileage, anyone...
That's what I was thinking
Great video and beautiful truck. This is exactly the package I want. White on black look (I'm also gonna powder coat the rims white). I noticed you didn't black out the 1500 hemi badge though. Any particular reason? Also do you know of a kit you would use to raise the truck around a 5-7" lift??? I'm looking to raise mine up around that ball park when I get it. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks bro!
I haven't decided what I want to do with the hood emblem yet.. As far as going with a 5-7" lift, I would look at Ready Lifts for the new trucks.. I don't have any recommendations on those lifts. All I did was a 2.5" leveling kit which are basically just strut spacers.
@@DOOWORKPRODUCTIONS thanks for the response. I'll look into those lifts. I subscribed so, I will be looking forward to more videos from you. I can't wait to upgrade from my 2013 Ram big horn to the 2019.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
YOOOOOOOOOO! I got the truck. Laramie white sport package! How do you like the ride with the lift so far? Also what did you use to black out the Ram lettering?
The ride with leveling kit is great. Not much different from Factory IMO... I used plasti dip for the RAM emblems...
I just put 2-in on my 20-20 Laramie four-wheel drive and the front is level if not it's an eighth inch higher than the back now which is BS because I went with 2-in versus the 2.5 so this would not happen
Good video.
I’m picking up my ‘19 Laramie next week. Looking for a lift not so much for aesthetics but to minimize the drop with the weight of a plow (it’s going to drop X amount anyways with or without a lift kit). Any thoughts on why the bumps are harsher and the reason for a shorter ball joint life? I’m guessing the ball joint might be at the limit of its designed movement.
Are there any caster/camber adjustments on these trucks?
Hate pickle forks, just hit spindle from the side and it pops right off. Locktight.
How did this affect geometry? I want to do this kit on my 2020! I don't have an offroad package to give the 1" extra lift from factory. I do mostly highway driving.
Please use jack stands next time. Great instructional video thanks.
So the link for the Pucks “lift” it only goes to 2010 Ram models?
The leveling kit in the link provided will work.. The website just hasn't updated the listing to fit the 2019 model year yet..
DOOWORK PRODUCTIONS Thank you so much!! Ordered today thanks again!
You probably already got it by now lol, but I did a little digging on it too and if you click all makes and scroll down to ram it does include 2019. If you put make as a dodge and then go to ram it will only go to 2010. Hope that makes sense
Forgive me if this has already been asked.... What size tires and rims does your truck have? Is the suspension modified aside front the leveling kit to fit your tires?
Thanks
285/60-20 Tires
20" Rims
2.5" Leveling Kit
You would have found the answers to your questions if you watched the entire video lol
Are those spacers actually 2.5 inches thick? I’ve been looking for those Motofab spacers, but everywhere is sold out! All these other 2.5 inch level kits say they are just over 1.5 inches thick, but lift the front end 2.5 inches due to ‘suspension geometry’?
Thats correct. A 2.5" lift does not require a 2.5" spacer. Go based on the rated lift by the manufacturer not the thickness of the spacer. Motofab, Supreme Suspensions, Readylift are some good brands. There are also cheaper chinese knock offs that are fine
hey i have the same truck but in blue. just wondering where you got the white vinyl overlays for the ram emblem on the front and what did you use to do the side emblems black?
Looks pretty AWESOME! I had a Pro-Comp 2" leveling lift on my 2019 RAM 1500 Rebel, but would like to go to 2.5. How will this affect the ball joints ? I have heard bad stories of issues.
Thanks, I haven't had any ball joint issues since the install.
It wear the ball joints out a lot fast then leaving it stock if you're going to do a good leveling kit you might as well replace factory shocks with a two and a half inch over stock length and A-arm and yolk so that to avoid any ball joint issues in the future
@@charleswoolman7231 Seriously, is this truck in the video a extreme off road racer going up against a raptor, it looks more like a pavement princess to me, driving it around town will last the lifetime of the truck, I know a few older rams with spacers and they got 250,000 plus miles on them and still never had issues with the joints, keep them lubed especially if you play in the water a lot or live in a rainy city.... and no curb hopping in the walmart parking lot and these balls will last forever. Now if your seriously going extreme off road then you already know what to do with the $6,000 you need to build the suspension and this video is not in your list of things to do...
What’s the biggest tire size you can go with a 2.5 in leveling kit? Any one know
33"... 35" tires will rub..
Can you get the TIS544 22 inch rims on this truck with same tires you got ; will it fit on a leveled truck?
I tried this and my cv came out when trying to get the now-longer strut in place. Any idea how to prevent this?
No I'm sorry, I did not have that problem when I did mine..
Hey Man. Nice setup. I just got a 2020 4x4 crew cab I planning to do this. Any issues after all this time?? Thanks
No issues at all!
When hitting ball joints with the fork is a50/50 chance you don’t rip or Tare them.
Did you have to put new shocks on as well, and have you had any premature ball joint failure?
Nope. And Nope.
Hey bud how are you upper control arms holding up? Was your angle all wrong ? And have you had any balljoint wear or damage etc?
Held up great! No issues at all!
Do you think the 285/65/20s will rub? They measure at 34.7” overall height. I believe the tires you have measure right at 34”. Will the 3/4 of an inch make the difference you think?
Thanks.
No, they shouldn't rub..
Would this leveling kit fit 2020 Ram 1500? I was planning on getting the MotoFab 3’ spacer..would i need new upper control arms to adjust the angle? Thank you.
Yes it will.. I didn't replace the UCA's.
Did you compress the coil spring and spin the top of the strut, or just turn the strut around?
Turned Strut around.
@@DOOWORKPRODUCTIONS thanks pal! Nice videos... keep up the good work 👍
@@erikcoolidge5268 Thank You!
It works great on the 5th gen if u do 2.5 on a 4th gen the front will be too high and it will give it that squat look
Looks wicked man!! Good tire choice as well!
Great video. Quick question will this lift kit work on a 2019 ram 2WD?? Just like you i'm looking to raise it and not do any offroading, but still maintain that smooth ride. Please let me know. Thanks
This kit will not work on any 2WD RAM's. Sorry.
Bsc285 what did you end up going with. I have the 19 2WD also
Sam Patterson, P.A. 561 346 8555 hey Sam I haven't done anything yet. I'm just researching. Won't do anything until next year though. Once I do I'll let you know, and throw some pictures up.
This kit won’t work on a 2wd? Aren’t the strut assembly’s the same tho? I have a 2wd 19 also. I’ve read up that the 4wd’s and 2wd’s have no difference between them on the 19’s. But I could be wrong. I have the kit on stand by.
@bsc285 it will fit on a 2wd 19 ram. Just installed it on mine last weekend. The MotoFab 2.5”
Did you need an alignment right away, or was it pretty close to get by for a little bit?
I would get it aligned right away..
ive done this the rear still looks a bit lower than the front thinking of doing 3 inch or 3.5 to get that true level.
Imagine spending all that time and effort and the result is the same as original!
I have 2” on my 4th gen. It looks lvl. With only a few tools in the bed I can tell it start to squat.
This video is great....after a lot of debating Im going to do their 3in in the front and 1in in the rear and roll with 295/60/20's. Stoked! That should give me about 1/2 of rake right? I always have dirt bikes in the back and a tiny bit could help. This seems better than the 3.5in SST kit from ReadyLift.
Correct.
I wonder if the have a 1/2in spacer for the rest?
I have the same truck I don’t have a lot of mechanical under my belt would you suggest that I try taking on this task myself or have a mechanic do it
You can do it! Just follow my steps in the video!
Size tires? And did you need wheel spacers? I wanna run leveled stock wheels 35 12.5 R20
I just got the same kit in, did your spacers measure 1-5/8" thick for the 2.5" lift? Just want to Make sure they weren't any thicker.
I didn't measure them, I just ordered them and installed them..
Any rubbing at full lock with the 285 60 20 tires? I want to run this size on my 2019 factory wheels.
Only with 2" wheel spacers they rub at full turn..
When I use the link and go to amazon it says this wont fit my 2019 dodge ram.
It says that, but it does fit..
Awesome Video!!
Where can I find White Lettering for RAM On front Grill, and Black for Door RAM ?

DOOWORK PRODUCTIONS I just got the Same truck and I’m Researching All I Can. Being it’s such a new model it’s not a lot out there. I’d love to know/see how you blacked out the Headlight Amber signal light. Thanks
33 inch tires? no rubbing? take away from ride at all? very nice truck. thanks and happy holidays.
Yes, and only on full turn in reverse when I put my 2" spacers on. Thank you!
@Jason Maldonado Not really, around town driving you don't notice a difference. It's when you go over big bumps or in and out of driveways when it feels a little stiff. Overall, I am happy with the ride quality though.
Hey man, beautiful truck. Looking to do the same to mine, wondering how many miles you have on the set up and if you’ve had any issues? Everything I read gives me different opinions on changing out UCA!!!!
I have 18,000 miles on the setup and I haven't had any issues.. No need to change the UCA on this setup..
Question ...?... could I run 20x9 with 2inch hub centric spacers without a lift .. and if so ... what’s the biggest tire I can run on them wheels ?... thank you for your time
I think you would need a level to run that setup because I think you would rub when you turn. I am leveled with 20X9" wheels with 2" hub centric spacers and I rub at full turn with 285/60-20 BFG A/T KO2 Tires..
DOOWORK PRODUCTIONS .. I appreciate it .👍
Looks damn good Bud!!
Thanks!!
Should loosen upper and lower control arms while weight off truck then tighten them again with weight on wheels. Otherwise your ball joints will prematurely wear.
