for those who installed a leveling kit
i know theres a few guys on here the installed a 2.5" leveling kit like i did and the front sits higher than the rear. and you do not like it, well i went to pep boys and got a 1" spacer block for the rear that ges in between the axle and the leaf spring. well the block fit in perfectly but the u bolts did not fit around the axle, so i looked around and yes you can find u bolts that fit.....made by fabtech. part# FTS351UBK. those fit, i didnt feel like paying $50 for them so i just got some longer u bolts from pep boys that were long enough, but not wide enough to fit around the axle. after a lot of work of bending the u bolt to fit around and then getting it to fit back into the plate...i finally got it.
so i was just letting you guys know that if it sits higher in the front after the leveling kit...the 1" block for the rear makes it sit 100% PERFECT!
ill get pics later today or tomorrow

ya, but i heard the add a leaf stiffens up the rear which i didnt want, and.....well $100 for the kit or got everything for free and just made the u-bolts fit lol. but i was just letting them know that if they had the problem that the 1" rear lift made it right, because i wasnt sure it would make it perfect or too high in the rear which i didnt want, but it made it perfectly level
Rough Country Suspension Systems sells a 2.5" leveling kit for the 3rd Gen Ram that comes either with just the front spacers for $99.00, or with the front spacers, 1.5" rear blocks, U-bolts, and Rough Country Nitro 9000 shocks for $199.00 total. That's the one I'm planning to get, myself.

thats good to know.thanks for doin all the grunt work ha. i have noticed and not liked the way it sits. dont get me wrong i lovvvvve the leveling kit and glad i got no doubt..but i do want something to level the back now lol. thanks bro
haha no prob. a guy on here stuck a 2" block in the rear, but i think thats too much, thats pretty much sitting stock, just higher by 2". but i got my leveling kit and was very happy how much higher it felt and the fact that i could now clear the 35"s but it sat slightly higher in the front, you had to look to see it, but it was noticeable. so i put a 1" block and its perfect. PERFECT. if i had my damn camera battery charger here i would take pics![:@]

Yes you can get a 2" Leveling Kit. No need to raise the rear or anything like that it levels out your ride with the 2" Front. I got mine from Hell Bent Steel for like 65.00 shipped.
yeah you can geta 2". i had a harder time finding the 2.5 than the 2" or any other smaller size. i thought the 2.5" would be perfect, but after putting it in a 2" would level it perfectly. i dont regret my decision though because yes, i love how its level, but i mainly went for the most lift becuase i need everything i can get to clear 35's so a 2.5 up front a 1" in the rear made me happier because i got more lift all the way around
