Hey, can you send me link for what brand you recommend. Also can you make me recommended list to properly level a 2018 Ram 2500 Cummins crew cab long bed. Note, truck came with tradesman245/65 r17 and I put on laremi stock 285/60 R20 from Craigslist from a same truck had upgrade. Do you think this has affect on my truck since it did not come with those tires and rims but is made for that truck in higher trim. I have hard time believing they made body different at factory. Your thoughts?

@LukeEdward 7 жыл бұрын

No. A sway bar does not have a counteracting affect on the opposite wheel. A sway bar ("anti-sway bar") will keep the sprung weight on the same level plane as the unsprung weight. Thus, whenever one side wheel raises up, the opposite side will have a downward pulling force to attempt to keep the body from rolling over. The way it's described here, whenever you turn, the truck will attempt to lean even further into the turn, listing the sprung weight to the outside of the turn. That ". . . downward force on the opposite wheel. . ." is exactly what you DO NOT want, and is the reason for the stiffness of the OEM bar. The OEM Anti-sway bar is made to safely operate at the extremes, i.e. heaviest diesel engine, with maximum payload, pulling the maximum trailer weight, with application of brakes, at maximum turn angle, at a DOT extrapolated algorithm for maximum speeds for turns. That's why it's "too stiff" for many people; they're not trying to perform an accident avoidance maneuver while pulling a 31,000lb gooseneck. Any alteration compromises the truck's ability to perform at it's extremes. That being said, heck yeah I agree that my RAM anti-sway bay is too stiff, too. Also, "death wobble" comes from improper caster and Akerman angle. Loose componentry and/or improperly dampened steering and/or bending caused by high stress on steering pieces exacerbates the issue, but it doesn't cause it.

I was looking at carli but thought 2-3k, yeah I can afford it but I don’t need all that extra s tuff. But here, thinking about what your saying, I may just go ahead and remove this steel 2.5” front kit, and lean towards a kit that does front and back from carli or the like. Spent $80 on the kit and like $200 to install. But I’m not so sure this is ideal for my use cases. Can you weigh in Jay?

My tires still look brand new and my truck still drives like nothing was ever done to it. I did it for appearance reasons and so I can slide under it easier for maintenance purposes.

The more tire sidewall you have the better the ride. Meaning a smaller wheel with a larger tire. The tire will absorb more of the road feel than what I’ll call a “lower profile” tire. I also chose my setup because it kept the speedometer calibration correct.

Is there caster adjustment in the factory setup? Or do you need adjustable arms or replacement radius arm to restore caster? Mindful of when lifting Jeeps, anything over about 2.5" steers like it's on ice because the caster is way out.

What leveling kit are you talking about bro, if you are talking about the one that just bolts on top of the strut assembly I can’t image the ride changing much. So I’m guessing you are talking about the compressed ones witch to me should stiffen the ride up front making it harder but I think the ones that bolts on top should be fine for a level look. So be more specific on what you are talking about.

Does leveling or lifting decrease MPG significantly? 🚙

What's your thought on a leveling kit and adding fox 2.0 coilover springs but soften them for better ride quality????

@JayFlatOut 5 жыл бұрын

You might as well get the Carli tuned kit, that's what provides the best ride.

So I have a 2wd 2007 dodge 2500 and I want to level it with the back what is everything I should get to do this without messing up my truck at all

@pdswink3455 5 жыл бұрын

Exactly what I was wondering. Have you done it yet? Sounds like I should at least get longer shocks but I don't see a kit anywhere that that offers them or the longer coils.

@hughtuggle3765 5 жыл бұрын

The best way to do a leveling kit for your style suspension would be to change the spindles.... the same goes for lowering.... Ride quality stays the same, shocks stay the same, and alignment properties do not change.... something like this... cstsuspension.com/ram-2500/107-lift-spindle-kit-2003-2008-ram-2500-2wd-8-lug.html

The Only truck that seem to be ok with lifting spacers up to 2 1/2 if the 04-14 F150s. My old Z71 I just cranked up my torsion bars. My 97 Explore I'm trying to get lower so thats a who other monster. Want to do a minor lift on my 08 F150. 3 inch in front and inch in back. That will give it a good stance.

I do hear you and agree with what you said. My problem is that, I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab. It is a half breed, and it is hard to find leveling and lift kits that will do what you explained in your video. If you have any suggestions, please let me know

Well I am trying to get a 3 inch leveling kit now and a 6 inch 4 inch or a 7 inch 4 inch luft kit later. But for now I just want yo level the front if my truck 3 inches. Yes it is a 1500 Mega Cab.

1500 Megacabs have 2500 suspension I do believe.

@hughtuggle3765 5 жыл бұрын

Your half ton has the same front springs as a 2500 with the 5.7 would have..... spacer or spring either way would work, depends on how much you want to spend. if you like your current ride go with spacers, if you want a modified ride there are many options for different rate springs just gotta do a little looking and calling around
