I've been offered a good deal on a 2.5" leveling kit for a 4wd ram but mine is a 2wd. They are just coil spacers so should it make a difference that mine is not 4wd? Thanks.

 

I believe so, 4wd trucks have struts, our 2wd trucks do not. But you said they are the coil spacers, so it sounds to me the guy has 2wd spacers and not 4wd, I'd make sure before you buy them. 4wd parts for the most part do not fit 2wd trucks...

 

yea i'm going to look at them today but he said they were coil spacers.

 

coils spacers usually do go on a 2wd

 

ok he was tellin the truth they are just 2.5" coil spacers from HBS. Next question is I have a set of 35" nitto terra grapplers with i believe 1.5" wheels spacers ready to go on after the leveling kit. Anyone foresee any problems fitting the Nitto's. They came off a stock 1500 trx offroad and barely scrubbed at full lock. (Keeping in mind that we're starting with a stock 2wd.)

 

I dont think that spacer is going to work, does it have bolts in it? Im pretty sure that they dont make a kit to fit your truck...check out fatbobsgarage.com

I cant see you fitting them even with the level without cutting some. the wheel spacers will help with the width. He had 35/12.5 on a stock truck?

 

yea it has bolts in it yea he had them on a stock 4x4. they scrubbed a little when the wheel was locked all the way left or right but not enough to mess anything up. when you say I may have to do some cutting are you talking the plastic underneath? cuz thats the only thing that I can see it scrubbing. i appreciate the input.

 

See if you can get a part number from the guy and cross reference it online and see if it's compatible with your truck. Usually a spacer for a 4wd won't work for a 2wd. That truck IMO a 35" is too much tire for just a level. A 2wd from the factory doesn't sit as tall as a stock 4wd to start with. So, he already has a couple inches on you from the get go. If you do any off roading, even minor the tires will top out on the plastic wheel well liners for sure. IMO, a 33 or even MAYBE a 34 would be your best bet as far as height on the tire. The wheel spacer only pushes the tire out which is the width concern, not the height concern Matt is talking about.

 

Thanks for all the input guys. we're just gonna try the kit monday and if it goes on then we'll try the wheels and tires. Hopefully I'll have some good pictures to post but we'll have to see. Keep your fingers crossed!
