Default RE: New level kit installed!

i want to level this truck so badly, i know im trying to save for the next truck, but while im driving this for the next 6months to a year...i want it leveled, the only problem is that its a 2WD!!!!!!!!!!! the only leveling kits i find are the polyurethane spacers which i hear people talk badly about, and it requires new shocks!

I wouldn't use Polyurethane spacers, my buddy used a pair and not even a year later they were worn out and cracked; Squashed like. If you can, try to find steel or something other than Poly! I mean, that was his experience with them.

Email Topguncustomz, they're a fabricating shop and explain to them what your problem is. They specialize in Dodge trucks, it wouldn't hurt to try. I'm sure they have something. Don't quote me on this, but i'm pretty sure that they have a 2" steel spacer for your truck. And if not, they're fabricators, not just suppliers; just ask!

Hey mmstar23, I just looked on their website and it states: To call for more info on 2wd and other models, so give them a ring! Let me know how it works out with them..

Then I would just go ahead with them.. Just keep an eye on them, for signs of wear and tear. My buddy also went off-road a lot, so they did get abused! Give'em a go and look like the dodge Ram it was intended to be!

No problem mmstar23, just keep me updated. By the way, your truck looks sick with the exterior add-ons you did!

ok, i just called them and no luck. he just said go with the polyurethane. he did say hes heard them getting weak but not for a few years. and he said by that time theyll probally have steel ones by then and if not...i could just replace them every so often, theyre not expensive or anything. but like i said..im not gonna have this truck that long to find out. the next one will be a 07 or 08 black QCSB hemi sport with 4X4! wont have these 2wd drive problems anymore haha
