I own a 2005 ram 1500 4wd and im looking to get a level kit installed as well as new shocks. If i put a readylift level kit on do i need longer shocks or can i just order the 4600 series bilsteins that say are for stock height? I know some kits come with shock adapters to raise the mounting points up but the kit for my ram doesnt so not sure if i can use the 4600 series shocks.

#2 front bumper. I have the steel 3 piece front bumper and a couple years ago i bought a new steel center section which is now rusted so i was thinking of getting a sport bumper since those arent metal and i wont have to worry about rust. I see front bumper covers on ebay but are those replacements or do those simply just sit ontop of my existing steel bumper? If i order one how does it install? Or if order a sport bumper what else do i need in order to install it?

 

Why not go with Bilstein 5100 leveling shock? That's what I used couldn't be happier. Has 4 adjustments 0"-2.5". Much better choice and less $. You can read up on here s well in other posts. I used the 3rd setting and was even with the rear height. This will get rid of that factory rake look.

I'm about to buy 2" rear drop shackles. About $50. Will level it close enough for me. I already replaced the shocks on mine last month.
