    When looking for a Ram 1500 leveling kit it can be hard to decide what the best option is. There are King Shocks, Fox Shocks, and Shock spacers available. Luckily for me and you guys I am happy to share that CJC Off Road lead me to success. When debating King vs Fox Shocks for my truck leveling kit CJC Off Road sold me on the amazing ride and quality engineering of the King Suspension

    Thanks to Jay and his videos I have bought Carli Leveling Kit for 2015 Ram 2500 HD with Radius Arms, Torsion Sway Bar, Track Bar, Radius Arm Drop Brackets. I loved it so much I wanted MORE!
    Installing this week the Carli Backcountry with Fox External Reservoirs and two weeks from now I am removing a AEV 3" Dualsport SC kit (GARBAGE) on my brothers 2016 Ram 2500 HD and installing the Carli Pintop Kit with King shocks.
    Jay is the real deal guys, I started my builds after watching his videos to learn what to do, how to do it right and can't thank Jay enough for his videos as he is honest and his opinion is real, one that we can all relate to!
    I also order my parts from CJC Offroad and the are the best!

    Had Fox 2.0 Coils and rear shocks on my 15' F150 loved them. I think most people stand to benefit a lot from that shock setup and it comes at a pretty reasonable around $1k price tag for all corners. Really only need to go beyond that if you just want to brag about something or plan to regularly put them to work off pavement. Going to run the Fox 2.0 on my Ram as well. King is good shit too but it is my opinion that you should regularly play off-road at higher speeds to get the most out of the more robust king setup shown here. I have a Jeep I spend more time off road with. Fox also makes more robust options than the 2.0 shown as does ICON suspension. There are some really nice options out there for more trucks.

    I want to clear something up to the people watching this. Putting a strut spacer or a performance adjustable strut that is longer than factory will chance the angle of the joints in your suspension. So the only difference between a strut spacer and a performance strut is the ride quality. What makes a good vs bad lift/level is anything over a factory height needs to be accommodated by a longer control arm. This makes it where the angle of the pivot points in your suspension stay the same. Also remember to get a allotment after adjusting anything on your suspension. Doing this will make your tires wear properly, your truck drive like it should, and your suspension lasting for the long haul!

  • @jasonb.7152
    @jasonb.7152 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jay did you not have to get the carli rear track bar drop bracket to correct your truck at from being on too much of an angle with the setup? I just installed the bilstein 6100 all the way around on my 1500 with zone upper control arms and the same carli sway bar links and linear tripple rate rear coils as you. The rear of my truck gained about 3 in lift and my track bar angle is on an extreme angle which opted me to order the carli track bar drop bracket and adjustable track bar from CJC. I am waiting on it to arrive now. Thanks

      Totally get what you're saying, can't beat a spacer if all you wanna do is clear bigger tires. For anything that you plan to really have fun in the dirt with though, there's just no way of getting around putting real money into suspension.
      Unfortunately, beating on the cheap stuff gets just as expensive in my experience.

    This may be a dumb question...how are the longer coil overs any different from spacers in how they affect the geometry of the front end? They are both adding 2 inches of distance in between the upper and lower mounts. I understand that a coil over is going to be a higher quality option than a spacer on top of the factory strut, I just don’t see how they are any better in terms of geometry.

    It'd be nice to see some decent level and lift options for Rwd rams. I'm thinking if going to a yard to salvage the front suspension linkages of a 4x4 just to be able to level it with out spacers and to be able to choose between more suspension systems.

      If you do more research on them the digressive (Icon) dampening is significantly rougher than the linear-style (Fox/King). This results in a firmer-ride when traveling under 35, too firm for most people not going balls to the wall off road.

    Just curious though. RC offers the leveling kit that comes with the upper control arms to correct the geometry. They offer the extended struts that eliminate the spacers and rear shocks for just over $800. The kit in your video offers the struts with springs, beefier sway bar links, for over $1800 and I don't even know yet what theyre getting for the upper control arms. Kind of scared to ask. $500 for the pair? I'm guessing. Is it $1500 better? Just seems pricey but I"M still shopping. Havent ruled out this kit but I am curious about the cost of the upper control arms for a 2015 ram 1500 4x4

      @DF-et4gs 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@--emt I decided to pass on the 5100's in the front for the reason of stiffening the ride. Other kits that include a new spring typically ride better.
      I did the rear first since I tow a lot my truck was sagged out while loaded. I did 5100's in the back with TufTruck springs to reduce squat under load. Huge difference!
      A few weeks later the 6112 kit came. Built it with new OEM parts that are not included so I didn't have to disassemble my OEM struts. I also did Zone UCA's at the same time for piece of mind since the stock ones are plastic.
      The ride is unbelievable; I have it set to #6 so I believe if memory serves it's just over two inches higher in the front. There is also a 3/4 puck in the rear so I maintained rake for towing.
      I also did a Helwig sway bar in the rear with Carli sway bar end links, again another drastic improvement in handling.
      I'm glad I did it over the course of a month so I could feel each change.
      It's winter here, and with this setup along with winter tires my truck feels amazing.
      It's not the highest or the biggest but it rides smooth, there is no rattles or bangs. Speed bumps are now a joke.
