Leveling kit for 2WD 2009 Ram 1500?!?!?!?
Just got the call from my installer. He said that this one looks MUCH better than the last. I'm a little worried about the stock shocks, but he said that I shouldn't worry...that my factory shocks will be fine. Pictures coming soon!
Ok, pics are in....a few of the truck and the after measurements. I'm very pleased with this set of spacers. Ride is comparable to before and the steering is even better than stock IMHO. It seems to be much more responsive...anyone else experienced this?
The photos are on slightly unlevel ground. I had just washed it and didn't want to get lawn clippings all over the tires. If you can't read the numbers on the tape, it is right at 7" front and back.

so thats a daystar 2" kit.. do you have a part number? I agree, it looks much better
i just went out and measured mine.. i have exactly 4" from the top of the tire to the fender.
also from the ground to the bottom of the truck under the door is exactly 12" off the ground
i am interested in the change after i raise it up, try a 2" inch front lip and the 35s

i just ordered a set for myself from summit.
but they say its a 2 1/2 inch spacer

no big deal.. hope this helps me clear the 35s..
i have 33s now.. and with 4 1/2" of lift (2" from putting back on the original stuff and 2 1/2" from the new spacer" i hope to clear the 35s.
i wont be doing any real articulating stuff so maybe this set up will live on the street/trails/snow

Honestly the lift was probably more like 2.5 than 2 but the box was labeled Dodge Ram 2" Leveling Kit. The Daystar website also says it is a 2.5" kit. I can't say for sure if it will clear 35's...I'm running 33's now and they were fine even without the spacers, so I'm guessing the 35's would be ok with the spacer. 33 is as big as I'll go simply because I think my performance would suffer since I have the 4.7. I could tell a slight difference just adding the 33's.

Your truck looks great, pretty level, the spacers from Daystar, are wrote that way so they wont get phone calls, saying ,"that lift only lifted my truck this much and that much", that is why they wont tell you how much it will lift it exactly, the engine will also determine how much it will lift it, also we found the springs in the front have a different rate for the 4.7 then the Hemi.
Doc when you get those .measure them,they some times put in the wrong ones
