Ram 3.5" ReadyLIFT

- When I bought this truck new, I immediately put a Rough Country 2" leveling kit on it against better youtube judgment. They were right! I got roughly 16,000 miles or so out of the bearing assembly (upper control arm) before it failed and started to squeak. I left the pre-load spacers from the Rough Country kit and purchased the SST ReadyLIFT 2" kit with the new upper control arms. Their 3.5" kit would have come with the 2" pre-load spacer anyways so I thought why waste the money, parts, and labor of removing the junk from Rough Country. Here are the links to the items I have bought: www.amazon.com...
www.roughcount...
I see they changed their design since I bought it. Mine are a welded steel spacer as seen in the video. Since the ReadyLIFT true 3.5" kit would have come with spacers for the rear, I was on a quest to also find spacers for the rear that I could purchase separately. These are listed as not comparable with the 2019, but they worked just fine on my truck. www.amazon.com...
I hope you like the video. I am not a professional obviously, so go easy on me! I try to get back with answers to questions very quickly so please don't hesitate.
I did somewhat you did.. but i added the RC leveling struts then the ready lift top spacer with uca. Trust me. The ride is so much smoother.
Rob Huerta I could definitely use off-road struts!
Rob, quick question. would the off road struts be longer per se? I think my truck ride quality would benefit from something about an inch or two longer.
Exact same truck and you’ve helped me make up my mind on lift and now just upgrading tires opposed wheels and tires. Stock wheels look awesome now 👍🏻💯
Satoshi One excellent! Glad I could help! That’s the point of these videos:) let me know any other questions you might have. Just turned 25k miles
Here are some photos of my truck along the way www.flickr.com/photos/francephotography/
I agree. Stock wheels do look nice with just upgraded tires. I have the other black stock wheels though.
@@XD65 same I have the 18’s on my bighorn painted black. Idk if I even want to change the rims
Seriously this is the best lift setup. The tires alone if you do 35's lift it 3 inches since stock tires are about 32 inches high. Then you got a 3.5 inch lift. So easily rounded down about 6 inches total. Best stance man and very sick Ram.
Thank you!
Lol that’s incorrect… it’d be 50% of the 3”, so 1.55”
That truck is perfect lift nice with good size tires and factory look
J.G thank you!
Great video for guidance. I like how the final setup turned out. Great Job.
Thanks man. Wasn’t a whole lot to reference when this body was new. Glad it was helpful.
Finish product looks 😷 🤙
Mr. Magic thanks, Man!
There goes the warranty 😂, BDS and RAM all covered
Thanks for sharing! I'm getting the 3.5 ready lift kit for my 2019 tam longhorn. Was just looking up videos to see everyone else who agrees that it's a good choice :)
marxxs it really is the best of both worlds IMO. you get serviceable parts with the UCA and if you see my other videos of my Leveling Kit, you’ll get a better feel for not making the same mistake as me and others with Rough Country.
I have 2022 Ram 1500 with 3inch Motofab leveling kit it raises 3inch up front 2inch in back front 39 almost 40 I just need some 33's I'm good 👍
That’s gonna be a killer setup man. Grab some longer struts if you can swing it!
I just watched your previous video and this answered my question.
Glad I could help! Any other questions? did you get your truck lifted?
@@aFra109 i haven't lifted it yet.
good looking brother ....iam going with the 4" Rough country lift for my 2010 dodge ram 1500 .... i been checking everbody videos out on Ram 1500 crew cabs with lift kits
Rondre Mckennon awesome! Going to look great!
@@aFra109 thank you brother
@@rondremckennon3277 Did you get your truck lifted? how do you like the 4" kit?
Looks great! Thanks for the video.
Great, I lifted 3.5 inches last week (from RC) on my ram 22 Laramie. i'm considering 35 or 33 tires.
Wow, your truck looks awesome, makes me want to lift my Rebel a bit.
gpage heck yeah! Why not?? That would look great!!
@@aFra109 Oh I'm planning it now! Wasn't sure about the 2" Level or the 3.5" lift, but after seeing your truck, definitely going with the 3.5" I think I'll also stick with the 33" Duratracs already on the truck, but I will go with some 18" Methods with -12 offset to move the tires out to the fender flares.
@@gpaje That will set you up nice for when the duratracs are wore down. I like these Toyo for sure, might look into Cooper STT pro next to save some $ lol
Love your truck !!!
If you don't mind losing a slight bit of speed and a little gas.. the 35x12.50's are MonsterS..!! I don't Regret it.
..and I've only got a 2" leveling kit
E.A.R. Nice! You have a link to online photos or video?

What rim size and offset?
@@sdlopez83 Black Rhino 'Sierra' Rims 18". Stock, Zero offset. came back to pick up my truck not knowing what to expect.. Was AWESOME, I flipped when I saw it. *The perfect offset for a 2 or 3" lift.* (So thankful I didn't order 2-in offsets, Would've given that stupid lifted-lowrider look)
Zero offset!? And this is on the 5th gen ram?
Looks great
Sorry to be a copycat, but I'm going to jack your idea and do the same for my truck. I have the exact same truck and wanted to lift it with new tires, but wanted to keep the factory rims. Not a big fan of aftermarket rims. Now that I've seen yours I know what I gotta do. Thank you much for sharing!!
Absolutely! This is the reason for these videos. Helping each other out! Good luck and have fun man
I just did the 3.5” ready lift..
Need to get some rough country rear wheel liners, they look so much nicer than seeing all the crap back there
The ball joint went bad quick because you didn’t upgrade the upper control arms
Truck looks sharp!
Great looking truck. What tires are those? Is that the stock 20x9 wheel?
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Looks awesome man, I wanna do the exact same haha. Just been debating which route to take.
Dylan Hicks I’d be glad to help in any way, bud!
@@aFra109 finally got my tires and wheels ordered. 35/12.50r18s on some anthems! Can't wait.
Dylan Hicks nice!! 35” are huge!!
Nice setup! 👌🏾
World Of Jones appreciate that, man!
Andrew France No problem and I’m trying to decide if I should buy this already lifted or just buy a limited or Loraine and lift it myself/change out the rims and tires
That’s nice I got 2019 Dodge Ram new body style 2wd I want to lift the front end on it
Did you get the lift for the 2wd? I've had some people ask if this kit would fit the 2wd. LMK, Thanks!
Looks great!
do you have a ceramic coating? or what do you use to keep your truck looking so clean? just bought same truck trying to figure out best products to use
No coating. Just never took to a machine touch wash. Hand wash or touch less laser then a high quality quick detailer to wipe it down. The Ram paint is the best paint I’ve ever had in a vehicle.
Man that is real nice
pimpjuice thanks man!
Looks great. Do you remember the mpg hit you got? And does it reach 8Th gear on a regular drive? Thanks.
I don’t remember a problem with 8th gear. 10-13MPG. 14 highway.
@@aFra109 thank you for your response. I think you got a Chevy now? Feel free to see the built I did with a Trailboss in my videos. Lots of good info. Take care and merry Xmas !
Nice truck
What about your cv axles?.....3.5 is alot without dropping the front differential a bit
Put 20k on this setup. No issues with the CV. Traded last year so I hope the new owner didn’t see any issues…
So the ball joints only got messed up due to not having the aftermarket control arms ? A lot of people say pre load spacers make it run like crap, do you agree?
It changes the spring rate and made it stiff ride. Not the best way to do it but this worked on a budget. I would suggest installing taller struts with this kit.
I have the exact same truck with the off-road package..question tires look great on your truck have you noticed or paid attention to gas mileage I know it kills the gas mileage . That’s why I hesitated to change my tires because mostly I do highway driving my trucks not a daily driver but I do enjoy the gas mileage believe it or not I’m averaging around 21 miles per gallon on the highway around 73 miles an hour. With a hemi.
Dave Basey that’s impressive mileage for sure. I am mixed driving. I get 14mpg highway and 11.8 city. 13.8 combined currently. My Truck is Hemi with 321 gears no etorque.
Dave Basey the beauty is that I have a gas card for work:)
Andrew France I have a high flow filter I remove the charcoal filter stock airbox. Same Gear ratio ..Outlaw Flowmaster exhaust. I purchased it new in 2018 I have about 32,000 miles on it mileage hasn’t always been this great ..started getting better I think the air filter help.It doesn’t have E torque .Anyway your truck looks great.
Great looking truck! Sometimes it difficult to see in videos but was curious if the lift and tires made a noticable difference? Already got my 3.5" Readylift and waiting on my tires. Im going to install the Readylift and 295/70R18 Toyo Open Country AT3 with my stock wheels and was just trying to get an idea of what to expect when finished, (my first lift). Do you think the lift is noticable? Thanks for any input. Awesome looking Ram you have there. Thanks again.
I felt a huge difference. I don’t replace the front shocks so that might be part of the ride quality issues. I recommend a longer strut.
@@aFra109 Thank you for the information, greatly appreciated. Just curious, did your Ram come with an off road package? Well, mine goes in on the 4th. Hope it comes out looking as good as yours. Super nice looking Ram. Thanks again.
@@AJW-ho9vc just a bighorn “black” edition. They didn’t offer the midnight pack until 2020. No off road park either. Standard 4X4
Just curious. Since you got new tires and it gave you an extra inch.. what was the size of the tires you had on your truck before the mts?
The standard tires for ram’s 20’s i believe it was 275/60/20. Essentially 31” tires.
That’s a great setup and just looks awesome 👍🏼 How’s the ride now? Feel more difference from stock, more stiff?
Definitely more harsh. I recommend adding new, off-road length struts!
I’m more impressed with your paint looking like glass. 👍 What’s your secret?
Ryan Hargett lol thanks. Go grab Griot’s Garage Speed Shine and also their Best of Show Detailer.
At this video, we are sitting around 17,000 miles and one year old.
@@aFra109 same truck same lift bu I have 24 inch ram replicas with 33inch tires and mines granite crystal metallic..I use the same product groits
Did your bighorn come with those led headlamps, fog lamps, and tail lamps like that? Or did you order them from Mopar?
In 2019, to get LED headlights and taillights, it was a $995 option on the sticker. I searched for this in June of 2018 when they were announced. Found it spected out this way and grabbed it!
@@aFra109 that’s awesome man! Looks great! Just got a bighorn with the halogens and trying to figure out the best option to get that lighting package.
@Jose Nunez I am looking for to upgrade my Big Horn Ram to 12" screen. Currently I have a 8" screen (with satellite radio, no GPS). Where did you buy it? And, did you have to swap any module? What is the cost if you don't mind? Thank you.
I'm curious about the front axle halfshaft angles. Not much articulation left. But the truck looks great
Harry D this may be true. It’s not the best way to lift a truck for true off-road abilities. I’ve used up 2/3 of my mud tires on pavement and have yet to see anything challenging. It’s a look. Nothing more. But I like it so.... lol 😂
Nice looking truck man but I have a question for you the lifting the you did to your truck do not affect the warranty on your truck thank you
Oh yes most definitely would void some warranty. I did 100% easy bolt-on items just in case I have any issues. I can easily remove and put back to stock in my garage by myself in a matter of a half a day.
Also, I’m now at 36700 miles on the truck total without any issues on the SST.
Dont forget to add a Front diff drop kit. It’ll help on the geometry...
Oscar M can you link what you are talking about??
Bump please link this
Did you have to level your truck before you lifted it? I’m new to lifting and want some info on lifting my rebel.
Dylan G rebels are amazing! Go look at my other videos. I did an install video on the 2” leveling kit.
Did you end up lifting your rebel? I'm in the market!
@@davidb.4342 not yet! might trade my truck in and get the ford f 250 shelby raptor baja, v8 turbodiesel. trying to get my hands on one.
just curious why didnt you go with a 35" tire?
Hey, Brian. sorry it took so long to get back with you. I didn't want anything too extreme. I use this as my daily commuter for work. HVAC Sales. It now has a ladder rack on it and 35" would have filled the wheel well back to where I would have wanted more lift. Its and endless cycle, haha! The 33"s are just a little off on the speedometer. the 35" would have made it way off.
@@aFra109 Had a 2019 Laramie with off road package and ready lift level kit. Put Nitto Ridge Grappler 35/11.5's on the same wheel as yours. The only problem I had was people stopping in front of the house to admire it. Got a Hypertech speedometer calibrator for speed adjustment.
im looking at the 3.5 Readylift for my ram. How does it ride? Does it still ride like stock?
It is pretty different from stock! I don’t mind it, but definitely much stiffer feeling. I suggest doing new struts too. The factory ones are too short and that might be almost my whole issue.
Hey Andrew. I just caught your video. What brand and size tires do you have on the truck? 33 X 12.5?
Toyo MT
How many inches before the lift ?
Did you need a spacer to fit your stock wheels and tires
Negative. All fit not prob.
Any wheel spacers ?
I did not run any spacers.
My dealership messed up my stock wheels, too bad I noticed too late.
What?? That’s terrible. I cannot stand the dealership. Any dealership service dept. pretty sure they all suck. Sorry about your luck, man.
You wouldn’t happen to know the offset of the factory rims do you? I’m looking to get a little poke out of em for a more aggressive stance, like an inch or so
I don't know what ours are from the factory. I have been thinking of the spacer kits then I see the horror videos and just hold off every time. I do wish these stuck out more.
@@aFra109 The stock wheel on your truck has a 19.05 offset.
I have the factory 22" wheels on my LongHorn and I think the offset is +18 or +19
@@DirtNassty Hey, I got my 2020 Ram a few weeks back. I raised it the 3.5" Readylift SST and put 35x12.50R20 on the factory rims and it looks amazing. Offset looks like a 0 to -8, just enough to poke out the fenders. Big fan :)
Been over a year, still loving my truck! Hope you’re feeling the same
I ordered the 5'7" bed, not sure which you have, but do u plan on putting a toolbox or tonneau cover on it?
I have a tonneau cover on it. Gator ETX soft for $209 on Amazon. It’s perfect.
5.7bed
Andrew France it’s official, I’m still waiting for the truck to finish being built but I will be installing the 3.5 ready lift set and a 33” Toyo tire swap before it leaves the dealer (power running boards will be coming soon after and eventually a retractable tonneau hard cover). Fuckin stoked lol
Hey Andrew,
How is the ride now with the lift? Stiffer? The same as factor? Thanks!
This was a significant change in ride quality. Not terrible, but nowhere near as good as factory. If you have the extra $, grab longer front struts. Might help that.
@@aFra109 Thanks man! Also, one last question. Do you have an overall height of the truck? I want to make sure I can get it in my garage when its done! Thanks again!!
@@randyholmes2483 man, sorry. I just traded the damn thing in like two months ago. (Check Chanel update) but it would fit into my higher garage (5 panel garage door) but NOT my neighbors 4 panel door. Hope that helps
Now get it muddy
She has a ladder rack now. Def works hard, but not much opportunities for deep mud. Just job site BS.
Shouldve got the rough country 3.5 strut lift.
That didn’t exist when I started this mess lol. I first keeled it in July 2018. Truck was a month old combing out of a brand new design. The original 2” leveling kit was just about all we had in the first few weeks of this truck being released. I added to that kit the best way I could with as little extra work and $ as I possible. And I lost faith in RC due to the control arm failure.
I love the tires! I want to do the same to my truck. Do you have a comfortable ride with the tires? Or is it really loud and noisy?
They are pretty quite for a mud tire. After about 20,000 miles, they hum a good bit. They are not soft by any means. These were the really tough tires you can put on an HD truck.
What shock springs did you put on in the back?
I used spacers from a 2018 1500 from daystar suspension systems. Amazon
Truck is pushing 40,000 miles with no additional issues. About 23,000miles on this lift setup if I remember right.
The truck looks very nice. How many mpg are you getting on the new tires?
Jorge Alvarez thanks, Jorge! It’s getting 12.5 city 13.8 highway
lead foot huh? Lol
Louis McComack not really, but the tires, the lift, and I forgot about the freaking ladder rack and 28’ ladder destroying my aerodynamics. So yeah... lol
@@aFra109 ladder rack on that beautiful truck? Oh man that makes me sad
@@louismccomack9524 this truck certainly put in some work to pay for itself. Actually removing soon with my new roll in sales only. No more project management in this trucks future.
I'm running a 3.5" rough country lift on my 2020 Ram and it is trash compared to what I have on my 2001 cherokee from years ago from R.C. I have to adjust the rear springs every 2 weeks because they make this thumping spring noise if they articulate at all. I'm going to the ready lift to fix this garbage with my 35x12.5R20 Cooper STT pros on -19 hostile rims. Hate to bash an American company but I wouldn't recommend R.C. to anyone until the step up their game, sad...
I agree with you. If I lift my new truck at all, it will be with ReadyLift again.
Good job man, I really like it. I have the off-road package so that lifts it 1' from stock. With that said this lift kit will not fit on my truck. Which is sad. Because to be honest there is not much I can do besides just leveling it out which is what I already did. lmao Why did you not go to 35's if you don't mind me asking.
I like the wheel well gap and these 33” did the trick. Still 2” larger than stock and fit everything with zero trimming. If I would have gone 35”, I would have not been able to fit into my unlimited car wash place and that’s a deal breaker for me.
looks good is that avon as in avon ohio been wanting to do it to my 2020 ram
Yep, Avon Ohio. My son (Alex) works there as a mechanic now.
@@aFra109 is that the one on 83 live in grafton and if trucks there would like to see it and talk to your son alex been thinking on tires for my ram also our jeep jl
@@joeshaffer2580 Joe, sorry man, we moved to Charleston SC. But no, Mr.Tire I went to and he works at is on 611 close to 90’ in Avon. I’d be glad answer any questions. I have tons of pics of my setup too. I did sell the truck last year so she gone! :(
Hey how do you like this 3.5" ready lift. ??
I'm interested to do leveling in my 2020 ram 1500 4x4.
Any squeaking? Thanks.
Alfred ibarra no squeakiness at all! Love it, it’s the way I’ll go again for sure.
Thanks man. Appreciated.
Alfred ibarra absolutely! Whatever leveling kit you do, make sure it has the new UCA as part of the kit, or steer clear. I like the ReadyLift because the UCA have grease fittings. Nice.
Just about to roll 32K and no issues or squeaking. did you lift yours?
@@aFra109 yes. I went with 3.5" SST ready lift kit. Very happy with the results. Got some pictures in Facebook 5th gen rams and 5th gen ram trucks
1yr review?
L W, I just traded the truck in since the value was stupid high, but I’ll recap the last year here for ya. I had absolutely zero issues with the lift and tires. I trade it in around 40k miles. The tires were wearing even and maybe a little more quickly than I wanted but that’s the nature of a mud tire. I had about half the tread left after 23k on them. I was able to keep an eye on the upper control arm and make sure it was greased every other oil change. The truck certainly rode harsher than stock but I knew this going into it. I do believe that I should have replaced the strut with a longer one because I felt most of my harsh ride was when suspension was fully extended (like over a RR Track) or on the up rebound of the suspension. I am looking into SST for the Chevy but I’m afraid of the crap I’m reading about the axles not being long enough and that a true lift is in order to keep geometry best. Hope this helps. Shoot me any questions you have sir.
What is your tire size? I'm thinking about doing a lift on my truck and upgrading tires. I have a 21 laramie night edition 4x4 with 3.21s I need to upgrade my gears first before doing all that
I’m running 33x12.5x20 on stock rims. The same gears you have. She not as peppy...
Should have put 35s
Great video! Whats the total amount of front lift you added with the spacers ?
Steven Bernard I believe it was 3.5” up front and 1” in the back. It’s sitting level now. Look at my other video, it’s more detailed.
@@aFra109 I have the off rd group so 1" taller spring and a 3" spacer and upper control arms so basically 1/2" more than what u have. Do u think its do able im waiting to install when it warms up. Thanks!
Steven Bernard man, idk! Haven’t had any experience with the newest setup. What I would do is keep an eye out on custom offsets or ReadyLift’s website to see what to buy when you are ready. This company makes the better items a of the two and I highly recommend ReadyLift if you have the budget when you’re ready to pull the trigger.
I got the same 3.5” SST readylift kit for mine. I love how it looks. I put 305/55/20 tires. They slightly rubbed on the upper control arm. Do you have that problem too?
rjm2010 I don’t have any rubbing with the 33’s. I’ll measure the UCA and tire space soon and post a video.
Andrew France it didn’t rub much, but I could see small marks on the inner side of the tires. I put some 1.75” bora spacers on and that fixed it
rjm2010 I would love to see a photo if it with them spacers! I want spacers too, just don’t know which size to get with these 12.5” wide tires ya know?
Andrew France yea I don’t know how to send you a photo on here, but I picked the 1.75” spacers because I didn’t want the tires to stick out too far. The wheel studs are 1.5” long, so if I got spacers that were less than that, I would have to trim the studs. I didn’t want to do that so I got the first size big enough to not have to cut anything. 1.75”
rjm2010 sounds like a plan to me. I remember I measured my studs a while back as well and had the same thought pattern.
Did you have to add wheel spacers
No spacers at all! Was thinking about adding them for a better stance..?
@@aFra109 thanks man I’m putting 33 12.5 by 20s on my 2018 ram 1500 tomorrow wanted make sure they will fit
@@billyconleyjr595 sure thing. Same lift kit?
Were those stock rims that you painted? Looks good either way.
S Morris these are stock wheels on the 2019 Ram 1500 “Black” appearance package. I believe they are now selling 2020 with the “midnight” package. Slightly different wheel design, and now all the black trim is available on different color trucks. However, when I was looking a year and a half ago now, “black” was the only package available to get me the fully blacked out badges, trim pieces and wheels.
how did that affect your mpg?
Tanked it. I average 13mpg. I have a ladder rack on it which doesn’t help either.
What is the offset on your rims?
Hey so if i do the same leveling kit my ball joints will go out too huh?
All I can say is mine did. Word of caution I suppose.
Did it effect your gas mileage with 33s?
Going from stock to much wider tires like these 12.5s he has will definitely affect gas mileage. More surface area creating more friction which causes the engine to have to work harder to turn them. Not to mention the increased weight from the tires.
Yes. a lot. my truck with the lift and 33"s is riding around 12.5 to 14.0 MPG. I get 9.8-10.5 towing around 7,000lbs total for work.
Nice💪👍
Would you be able to fit 35's on this kit?
Dirt Nassty yes, I’ve see this done a few times. I don’t know about trimming.
Are you able to get that truck in the garage still?
Never tried. My garage is not deep enough to practically park a full sized truck in. The length is just too close and I have shelving and wood working equipment inside. It would fit the front end, without the ladder rack. I could just barley clear the laser wash 7’2” limit with about 3/4” to spare😬
Not the way to measure lift height. Guaranteed that truck is raked at least 1”. Proper way to measure is from wheel well to center of tire hub
I like the way it looks. I’m Not a lifted truck guru, sorry bud. Since I didn’t measure this what originally, I don’t think it would help if I did it the proper way now, or would it help you?
is the ride a lot stiffer from stock?
Ozzy it is with the 3.5” kit. I believe it could/would be better if had replaced the shocks when I did the lift. Also, these M/T tires are Load Range F. And stiff as hell. Tolerable for me and wife doesn’t seem to notice or care.
How’s the trucks’s reliability???
The truck itself has been absolutely flawless.
I've had this truck for 8 months now. No problems at all with mine either. The ride quality is still great even though I drive mainly in rougher gravel roads. I'm going to put a 3.5 on mine when it warms up outside
Almost 2 years and it's flawless. Got a hemifever tune on my north edition and made worlds of difference.
a 2" front lift should not be that detrimental to our ball joints. Something else was going on
you could have done 35s easy
What was the total cost ? Lift kit tires labor
Let me think about that for a few...
Close to $2600-$2800 total. Tires are around $1800 installed, $827 for the lift (I installed the lift) $100 for alignment. Let's not forget all the shit I needed, truck height jack stands, jack accessory for the real axle, blood, sweat, and tears. HAHAHAH
did u not want 35s or do they still rub?
I didn’t want 35” tires. 33” filled the wheel well nice. Didn’t want to have too much tire and not enough lift. Ya know?
What did you have on there before switching them out?
CHRISTIAN MACKNOVITZ the factory tires, 275-55-20? I think??
How tall is it now with the lift?
With the tires 4:25
2:14 without the tires
Is that what you meant?
What’s the cost of this set up? Thanks
Jesse Morris the whole setup with the tires or just the suspension?
Break it down if you could, suspension cost, installation cost, and tires, thanks!
Jesse Morris we installed the lift in the garage. Son is a mechanic. here are the parts: Performance Accessories, Dodge... www.amazon.com/dp/B01B7PH83S?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
ReadyLift 66-1921 2'' Leveling... www.amazon.com/dp/B07F4N89XK?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
These tires are similar, but I ordered from my local tire place. The ones I got were 31/32 tread depth and were around $2k installed.

I paid about $100 for the alignment. Twice. Due to the issues with the 2” rough country.
The rough country pre-load spacers are being used in my setup to make it just like the SST 3.5” kit.
Total out the door is about $3k but labor was all ourselves. I made an install video you can check out on the channel. Let me know if you have any more questions:)

@@joe2nice maybe I don’t understand your question. If you did the 2” leveling kit and these rear spacers, you would have a slight rake to the truck. Would still look great. I like the large wheel well in the front with the 33’s
the right way to level this is to go with Bilstein 5100s up front not the stupid puck/spacer
So, your title says 3.5 lift, your finished product is 2" ReadyLift, correct?
The ready lift 3.5” kit is essentially a 2” leveling kit with the new control arms and a preload spacer to get you to 3.5” total. I already had the 2” rough country 2” preload spacer. Check other videos to see what I mean. Sorry for the delay. Didn’t see a notification on this comment sir.
wheels too big tires too small looks gay
Shots fired!!
Sorry broke my rule not to reach out when Im drinking
Do your tires poke out much?
Morgan Bradley not really. Would actually like it better if they did. They are out like 3/4” maybe at the most.
Andrew France Would you ever go up to 35s?
RD32792 not on this lift. It would fill the wheel wells too much and look funky. Just my opinion tho.
Andrew France I still think it looks great though. I’ve got the same truck, and this video made me decide to go for a 3.5” lift
RD32792 excellent! Glad I could help. The 2” video I posted would be a decent reference in your install. The rear is pretty self explanatory once you jack it up. Loosening the bolts they suggest on the installation paperwork is a must. I tried to shortcut it and ended up just loosening anyways and wasting time.
