Default Lowering a 2012 ram 4X4

I'm wanting to lower the rear end of my Ram 4X4 2 inches just to level it out. Im not having any luck finding a kit. Do they sell after market springs if so, who sells them? I'm trying to do this without raising the front.

Welcome.to the site. I'm surprised noone answered you yet. Theres 2 options. 1 is purchasing rear 2 inch drop coils. They will run around 150 to 200. Or for the same result and free you can cut 2 full coils off of the rear. For future refrence I know you can only go 2 inches front and back max on a 4wd

Why only 2 inches in the back? I would think you could lower it as far as you like.

I heard it would throw the 4wd out of wack. But also if you got a 4wd then most likely your going to use a truck as a truck... so when you lower to completely level and tow/haul something its going to sag and look stupid.... kinda like my truck when I tried pulling a 7 ton trailer. The tires was close to rubbing in the back and the front had 2.5 inches left and no way was I going to pull the trailer without dragging the jack
