If you have the Quadra-lift airbag suspension, unfortunately nothing can be done to level or to lift your vehicle, sorry :^(



This is from the Rocky road site. Doesn't the Durango R/T have the airbag suspension in the back, would that prevent using this kit in the front? I'm kind of clueless when it comes to suspensions.

No airbags only Load Leveling shocks Which I prefer. My Trailblazer SS had self leveling airbags and I always hated explaining to occupants what all that racket was out back.

Thanks so much for the feedback...I appreciate it! I'm definitely now leaning towards the Rocky Road product now-I love the ride of my Durango & wouldn't want to change it.Now I just have to find someone to install it for me at a reasonable price.

It seems with a few basic hand tools and an extra pair of hands you can tackle this in your own driveway in a few hours. I don't know what your skill level is but if you can save yourself a few hundred for other upgrades..........

Lift looks badass, I have been dying to lose that "minivan" look. Are all these lifts front and back or just front?

The level is just the front I believe. Mackie, that looks pretty badass, always love when the tires stick out away from the fender a little. What is the offset on your wheels? Seems like they are close to 0mm with how far they stick out.
