Default Leveling kit w/ 20" wheels...

Does anyone have access to pics of a dodge ram with 20" rims, leveled? Even if it's just a website. Wanting to do it, but can only find pics of ttrucks with 17" rims. Thanks!

I dropped the back of mine with some lowering shackles to level it out.

Looks good, but I was hoping to see one with the front lifted to level it. Thanks man.

nice truck dude! how many inches was that drop? Looks like about 2? That's what I want to do, how long did it take you to install the brackets to drop it? I figured about an hour to do both sides?

They are 2" drop shackles on the back. It only tood about 20-30 minutes a piece. Just don't forget to grease the crap out of them so they don't squeak.

Here is mine, not all the way level. $38,000 truck and a $400 boat.

You can dial in the height you want by trial and error. I did mine in one turn increments every few days.

Up close the 20's look small now.

Definitely needed the longer shocks. The Bilsteins are so nice.

When I got it aligned they told me it was real close.
