I just had the front done, there is a lvl kit that comes with back spacers also but the dealership says that it is not that great of setup. I kinda wanted the back higher but now that it's done I am glad that I did not get the other kit.
Plenty high enough for me.

1. mopar level kit
2. black rims (undecided on make)
3. bigger tires
4. Line-X bumpers w/ bushwacker fenders

Yeah i have to agree with you TM, to each their own but i hate the low nose down look that they have stock. It is really bad when they come with the 17's.

I did keep my stock wheels and tires for winter or towing when I finally get my camp trailer.

Hey, great looking truck. I was wondering if you have any side shot's. I have been talking to the dealer about doing the mopar leveling kit but I really want to see what it looks like leveled. I do not want the raked look. Anyway if you have a side shot that would be great. Also what size tires are you running I didnt't see that anywhere in the thread. Thanks

Thanks!! the tires are 275/60/20 and here is a side shot, in this pic my truck is on a slight slope with the front end pointing down.

The cooper zeon's measure wider than other tires of the same size or so I have read in reviews and forums before I bought them.

I am not sure if they used the mopar kit or not i just check my paper work and there is no part#. from what they said it was mopar and approved or mopar approved I don't remember the exact wording but does not hurt the warranty.

Give them a call if you want and they could fill you in on what they used.

www.dodgehq.com they have them in stock and could ship them out.. they did mine same day with no waiting on parts.

the leveling kit that the dealer has is a 2.5 leveling kit by superlift mopar stamped and approved. i wonder if that extra 1/2 inch will be a noticeable difference compared to your truck. i've read posts that dated way back and what i'm probably going to do is have the dealership install the front and then go out and purchase a 3/4 spacer for the rear. guys stated that a jeep TJ uses the same springs and there is a spacer out there that will fit and its only like 40 bucks.

Thanks for the side shot. Guess I just need to have it installed and then see what it looks like on my truck. I am looking at running 275/65/20 BF Goodrich All Terrain's once I do the leveling lit. Which is a 34" tire with the same width. I like to keep a clean look and a proportioned look that is why I am not going to try to stuff 35's up in there. Anyway thanks for the extra picture.
