Do not level your Ram 1500’s front suspension with this. It is 100% the wrong way. It pushes the suspension geometry out of whack and sets the CV axles at horrible angles. Do not cheap out. Use Bilstein 5100’s or similar. Bilsteins lift by preloading the OEM spring and your geometry does not change any more than stock because the do not extend the total length of the strut. A byproduct of the Bilsteins is it firms up the ride and gets rid of the junk oem shock and mushy cornering. I have been running them for 4+ years and 65k miles. Using the coil spacers on the rear is fine.
Just make sure you keep your pavement princess on the road then. Your truck has the same clearance as a car. But I guess that doesn't matter if you use your truck like a car!
Is it completely necessary to buy new UCAs if I use these? I dont go off-road. Speed bumps is the closest thing that I will do to off-road. Occasional curb climb at parkings perhaps.
They'll help keep your ride smooth and your upper control arms at the appropriate angle! If you have room in your budget, I'd highly recommend them. -Zach
It would be a great addition to this kit if you have room in your budget! Without aftermarket upper control arms your factory ones will be at a pretty steep angle that could cause premature wear over time. -Zach
We did not since we take these kits off our vehicle right after installation - I HIGHLY recommend getting an alignment after installing this on your truck though! -Zach
