It makes since it has a ball joint since the axle goes up and down.
Good info. Thanks for the update on the cab lights!
Appreciated. About to level my 350 and this made me feel comfortable with ready lift purchase
Thanks, had no idea I needed all of that. Truck just sits on a level no track bar at all. Appreciate it! Will be ordering soon
my readylift 2.5" w drop trac bar bracket pushed my diff 1" out passenger side .....
Your video gave me good information on choosing a leveling kit. Keep making good educational videos.
Thank you for the great video. I’m leveling my 2015 F250 gas truck. Lots of great info.
I have this exact kit on my gas truck and it does change the ride somewhat. I had to add caster shims and radius arm drop brackets to correct the caster. I think this is especially true if you have the snow plow prep springs as they aren't compressed as much it really throws off the geometry. I swapped out the shocks for Ranchos which didn't do much for the ride. The biggest thing was airing down the tires and adding a dual steering stabilizer. Trust me if you don't try to combat the caster somehow you will not like the ride and get ALOT of bump steer.
Good Instruction Video Ryan
Ryan. Thanx very much for the education on leveling an F150. I was guilty of just going to install the pucks but now with your recommendation I will follow what you say! Thanx my friend!
Thank you, installing a levelling kit
You are a bright young man, You have a great future if you stay humble.
I got a "SUPREME SUSPENSION" leveling kit with dif shims it was about 400. Put it on 08 toyota tundra 4x4 crewmax. 2 1/2 front and 1 in the rear. After 500 to 600 miles no issues retork at this point. Always always have your wheels aligned after installing any suspention parts. Nice vid thanks. Now the Ford looks nice I highly recommend a good reputable kit for any truck.
Love the video like always no matter what kind of truck it is.
Thank you!
great video i just got my new 2020 super duty I'm thinking on doing the 2.5 leveling kit i got great info from you thanks a lot bro.
That’s why I’m going with the Carli 3”Commuter 2.0 suspension system. It’s not cheap by any means but it’s one of the best, it’s going on my 2018 Ram 2500 4x4 CC SB running 35” tires, mainly used for towing my 35ft travel trailer.
Awesome awesome choice!
Is it a manual ?
No it’s. It , it’s a 68 RFE . I wish Ram offered the AISIN trans in a 2500 , but sadly they don’t 😥
I had installed a ready lift 2.5 inch lift kit. Track bar was not installed. My mechanic , very experienced, said the the instructions said it was optional. Called ready lift a d they said the same. Seems fine. Again Mine was a 2.5inch lift not leveling kit. Your thoughts. Nothing seems off but the passenger tire does stuck out a quarter of and inch more than the drivers side. Your thoughts.
Really enjoyed the video, useful information
Thank you!!!
ty for the detailed info bro
Both of my trucks with cab lights are going strong. I put them on my 07 and I used a template to drill. 7 years later I traded the truck and no leaks when I traded it. My 15, the seals look good
My Cognito leveling kit cost me $2400.00 it’s those damn addons that got me cause like you said it seems cheaper but if you get what they recommend it adds up, great video my man.
What's your safest way to get bigger wheels on 2019 F150
Thanks Man!! 👍👍👍👍👍
I adde cab lights on my Silverado 1500 and just used rubber based caulking, had them for a year and no leaks!!
Back in 2007 I had a 00 Tundra and bought a 2" coil spacer from Trailmaster. It only lasted 8 months on the truck. Every pot hole, speed bump, and/or rough terrain the suspension would squeak and pop. It changed the angle of the CV joints causing the boots to tare and spray grease all over the place. Also it caused my suspension parts to wear out prematurely. I did install a 1" front differential drop from Fat Bob's Garage and it didn't help. Ended up taking the lift off and had to replace the front struts since one of the strut stud broke off and the ripped CV boots. I was 21 at the time so money was kind of tight. Young and dumb. Rule of thumb, if your going to get a lift research it thoroughly and don't be afraid to drop over $800+ for a decent lift.
@@DeadOnTrail Absolutely. The Bilstein 5100's is a fairly good lift for the Tundra. I got rid of the truck in 2011. Now have an 11 Frontier at "stock" ride height. haha.
I have this exact kit on a 6.2L 2019 F250. Learned a lot along the way. Biggest thing is the ride will change. Caster will change and there's things that are absolutely necessary. 1) you will need 2.5 degree caster shims and 2) radius arm drop brackets no question especially on the gas truck with the snow plow springs up front. The geometry gets thrown off alot because the gas doesn't sag the springs as much especially if u have the snow plow springs. It is an instant change in ride quality. I also recommend a dual steering stabilizer. Dropping tire pressure will definitely combat the harshness in ride (stock wheels and tires)
What kit did you get? I have the Readylift leveling kit and it’s been fine so far. I have the same truck as you.
Love it!
Love your truck
Hi Ryan I have an 05 f350 Drw 4wd. I’m trying to find that kit number you used by readylift.
I installed a Ready Lift on my F350. I replaced the drag link, trac bar, sway bar drops, new Fox shocks and it drove like crap until I installed 2.6° positive caster shims. Caster is really important for proper tracking.👍
I also installed the trac bar drop.
I haven't even watched the video but I already know it will be good
I’m going with Bilstein 5100s on my 5th gen Ram with Off Road Package. They don’t require control arms according to Bilstein if you don’t set them any higher than 2” lift setting with the ORP. It will be 3” total over a regular Ram.
Yes you said it thanks for sharing smart advise.... SMASH THAT THUMBS UP 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍.
For the 1st min and 30 sec I was like “wtf is this dude talking about. Has nothing to do with the title “ 😭
Yes I definitely need the UCA on mine ASAP!! LOL
Lol looks like Ohio in February/ March. Good informative video!
Help I just bought a 2022 F350 dually. I want to put 37,12.50,20 on it.
My 94 has never had a roof leak from the clearance lights. My opinion is, if you drive a 3/4 or 1 ton truck...it needs clearance lights lol
Great vid
Thank you sir!
What kind of leveling kit did you put on that F250 with 35’s and 12 wides?
Another good, informative video! Thanks! So, I just bought a 2009 F250 SD 4x2. I've been searching level kits and 3" lift kits, but it seems like many companies don't make them for the 4x2. I thought of doing new longer coils, forged upper control arms, shock extenders, and try to create my own way of doing things. Any suggestions or recommendations? Thanks!
4x2 should be the same suspension as the 4x4 the advertised lift height may differ when completed however!
Thanks again bro! so, is an aftermarket upper control arm necessary if i have a drop bracket with whatever kit i get? @@ryan2546
Biggest leak or condensation comes from a hair line crack in the actual housing from tightening the screws just a little too tight. If you see condensation that's your problem.
Other leaks come from the SAT antenna mount and the gasket. The other is from the 3rd brake light location and gasket. I used all weather sealant on all my stuff and no leaks. Couldn't be happier and did my own can lights as well.
I have a 8inch lift my 2015 F-250 and i dont have any problems on 35x15.50R28x16 inch tries
Great video bro
I just bought a 2019 F350 Dually and I’m thinking about a leveling kit. I’m choosing to have Ford do it in spite of the extra costs. The guy at Ford never mentioned the adapter to keep the alignment in tact. Do you mind to provide a check list of the things I should look for when they’re done?
Also, will this void my warrant in any way?
Demetric Norwood if it’s getting done by ford your warranty should be fine
Trac bar drop, shock extenders or longer shocks, adjustable trac bar, sway bar drops and most important, positive caster shims.
The best leveling kits for Ford and Ram HD trucks is Carli suspension
Can’t disagree!
Just bought a Ram 2500. Took your advice and bought a coil kit. I went with the thuren with coils, shocks, and an adjustable track bar. Going with 35” Toyo MT. I’m going to buy the steering stablelier, would you recommend the steering brace too? Anything else I need to add? What am I missing?Thanks, keep the cool videos on your Ram rolling!
I’m doing a brace when I change my lift out 🤙🏼
Just finished my truck looks awesome! No idea how to show you a photo on TH-cam tho...I’ll try to make it a profile pic.
What would you suggest for a leveling kit on a 2018 ram 2500 Cummins? Done the right way.
I have 2019 Ram bighorn.Would you suggest coilovers rather than a leveling kit?
What about for a 2017 F150 2 inch front leveling kit... do i need to drop anything?
Any recommendations on levelling a 2017 Ram Power Wagon? Tires?
How do you feel about thruen leveling kits that come with the new track bar?
I have a 2013 f150 xlt 4x4 supercrew. Im wanting to level it. What kit would you recommend? And what other components should i purchase. Other then the look im wanting to achieve. I know nothing about this and would really appreciate any help or advice you could give me. Thank you very much
I have a 2017 Silverado. When I hit a bump the rear end jerks to the left or right. What could this be? Its has a 2 inch leveling kit
What do you recommend for my 2021 f150? I want to level it. 3" rake currently, I would be ok with 2" level. Would I need new arms if I go the coilover route? I am putting -18mm 22x10 wheels on 32x11.2" tires
What about if at the moment of installation and with the holes drilled we put around a little thin coat of white silicone ??
Im a ford fan boy, but gotta say your Ram is looking clean af, might be getting a ram soon. :)
😍😍😍 GETTTT
Doesn’t look like you normally respond but I’ll ask anyway.
It looks like after installing the Ready Lift kit, the steering wheel was way off ?
Correct, you need an alignment or you can usually adjust the steering wheel center yourself
Hey man I just put this kit on my 2020 350 and I used the new track bar drop bracket. My axle is still off center. Tire pokes more on passenger side. How or can I correct that.
Mine was off centered before I put on leveling kit, I think it comes off centered from factory like that
Marshall Foreman adjustable track bar
I have a question I just purchased the 2004 F250 Super Duty and I want to do a 2 and 1/2 leveling kit is there a reason why they don't do front and back I wanted to do 2 and 1/2 in the front and 2in in the back is that not the way to go so I just do 2 and 1/2 in the front and leave it like that or do I do the back I'm just trying to figure out why nobody levels the back or bring it up thank you
I’m up in Minnesota and wondering what kind of shop I should take my F350 to for a good leveling kit? Surely not any mechanic right? Also how about a readylift 46-2723 any thoughts?
A I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 2wd I want to do a 3in leveling kit I wanna run a 20in rim with 33s what do you recommend
I had no clue I should get a new drop bracket for my ram since it’s lifted. Can you take a video tomorrow of what your rams new drop bracket looks like for comparison!
Also if you put new upper control arms on ur ram can u show those as well! Thanks!
If you have a 2017 Ford f350 and get a leveling kit with all the brackets do you still need the camber kit
I’ve seen a sweatshirt like that where can I get one
Would you recommend a adjustable track-bar over the track-bar bracket
What would you recommend for my 09 Silverado z71 4wd
Yes I would like to raise mine about 3"
I was about to level my ram…I changed my mind now lol
What's a good leveling kit for a 2018 Toyota tacoma 4x4 double cab SR v6
I have an 03 2500 rear wheel drive and want a 2" level kit but it only has the spacer for top of spring. That won't work?
I have a 2017 RAM 1500 Eco Diesel with a 6 inch pro comp lift. Haven’t gotten upper control arms. Should I? Which ones are recommended?
Lift kits are made to accommodate stock geometry with the longer knuckle. However upgraded UCA’s never would hurt!
I really like the zone or cognitive UCA’s but would it make sense to have a pro comp lift with different brand UCA’s? Lol
Ryan I've got a 2.5" Ready Lift level kit on my 2021 F250. I have 35/12.5R18 tires on the stock wheels. I want to put 35/12.5R20 tires with 20x12 Fuel wheels, but not sure if there's some sort of off-set on the wheels I need to get so it doesn't rub or will it rub?
Watch ur channel all the time ive got a 09 Chevy avalanche z71 I like to 3.5 r 3 in level kit for the truck if not ready lift 4 in lift am not off roading just new rims and tires and like to have no rub what do you prefer and am use foxx shocks and struts
Fox is a great company and see if ready lift or zone make a lift, Ive always wanted an avalanche
@@ryan2546 ready lift make the 4in sst lift kit and a 3in level kit just dnt knw the best for me
Will this leveling kit work on 2wd 2019 F350 truck? I cant seem to find the right parts for a 2wd model
I always use Silicone when putting cab lights in never have to worry about leaks
What leveling kit or set up would you recommend for my 2020 F250 7.3 V8? Keep in mind the 2020 is about an inch lower. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
And it's an FX4
i have a 05 chevy silverado 1500 LT. whats the best leveling kit for that?
Do you still need a track bar drop bracket with on a 2” level kits in a 2021 gas f250?
I could only find torsion bar keys for my 2004 Dodge ram. So would you recommend getting longer shocks for the front for a better ride?
Thunder Truck yes!! Longer upgraded shocks
Is cognito good I am think about a leveling kit for my 04 suburban
eric Cognito is awesome, check with NorCal. Great customer service and a amazing product.
I just bought a 2020 Ford F250 what leveling kit you recommend thank you
Go with the 2.5 inch bds because on these trucks they need more caster stock. When you level the superduty without new radius arms or radius arm drop brackets it messes with the caster and causes death wobble. It also gives you an adjustable track bar instead of a track bar drop bracket, which would cause bumpsteer.
I take alll my rims to tristate. They've always done good work.
Okay so my truck is has a lowering kit right now.
Can I put leveling kit right away to lift it or do I need the stock shocks from
It ?
Did your cab lights leak? Thinking about doing it on mine
No sir!!! No leaks!
I have a 2012 f150 with a 2.5" Max Trac spacer levelling kit in the front, nothing in the rear. Tires were aligned with no signs of rubbing, and I have had no current problems with this levelling kit. However, what would be recommended to prevent any future wear later down the road?
Upgraded Upper control arms to give some relief to that upper ball joint 🤙🏼
@@ryan2546 okay thanks man, I'll definitely look into it!
@@ryan2546 what set of upgraded upper control arms would you recommend?
What do you think of the Mcgaughys 8’ lift kit for the new Super Duties
Aaron Sukhdeo awesome lift
I have a 2019 F250 and I wanna install a leveling kit but I’m not sure what to buy and what I need?
Carlos Quintana I have the same but a 350 and I’m gonna get it leveled with a BDS 2.5
“Thats great and all, but definitely not good”…. Some how, I knew what you ment lol
I was thinking about 2inch leveling coil springs and a adjustable trac bar . Would that be all i need ? 2016 f250
Yes!
My truck is stock just replaced rear leaf springs with the f350 leaf spring with the overload spring. It seemed to jack it up a little. Truck rocks from side to side on the highway figured id level it out with new coils and mayb that would help with the rocking
Can i put 35's on my 2020 f450 with out a level kit?
so how about that ball joint on that track bar?
hello ryan, subscriber here, never own a truck, so am looking to do truck build 6'' lift kit ( probably bds) anyways, is there video on do's & don't's on beginners on lifted trucks?
What level kit do I need to buy for my 2011 f250 2wd gas
You can get away with any leveling kit for a 2wd.
Hey, for my 2002 7.3 do you recommend a 2 inch BDS leveling kit, 2 inch zone leveling kit or a 2 inch ready lift leveling kit?
Kurtz Farms good ol front leafs 🙌🏼 lol get you any of those those are all quality products
RYAN MAYER ok thanks bro! Thanks for the videos too. They are really entertaining and I love the 6.7 Lime! Keep up the good work man!
Put the same kit on my same color 2017 f250
Did it change your ride? Did on my gas 2019 alot it seemed like and I had to add caster shims and radius arm drop brackets to get the caster back.
Do a good performance kit from Carli! The best for Rams and Fords! Carli or Thuren level kit is the best for level kit.
Is he speaking only about strut spacer puck style leveling kits, or coilover kits as well (as far as needing UCA and camber kits)?

Anything that’s upgraded and better than the stock angle if you’ve upgraded to a leveling kit!
