Hello All,

Wanted to create a thread for pictures/discussions about the updated Mopar Lift/Level Kit (Part#: 77072424AB) - available early May for the public.

I luckily was one of the first to receive and can verify that it does sit closer to level than the original Mopar-Fox 2" Lift kits.
(Comparing another Ram side by side with the original 2" Mopar lift)

I will compile some side pictures and get measurements on Monday and post them Tuesday, as there are about 4 posts going around discussing this update.

IF YOU ALREADY OWN A MOPAR 2" KIT - please be advised there is a TSB That will allow you to drop off your Ram should you want the additional 1" in the front.
(I believe is free of charge but will confirm for those when I drop off my truck Monday for a detail)

Hope this thread helps, lets discuss!

How does the ride compare to stock? Is it any stiffer? Any rubbing with the tires? Did does yours have the air ride? Great looking truck by the way!

Honestly the ride is impressive to say the least, smooth, quiet and comfortable. Handles bumps at speed extremely well, although I would expect nothing less from a Fox Shocks/Mopar collab.
I would recommend.

With minor fender trimming I can say I have zero rub with 35x12.50R22 at factory offset (+18)

And thank you!

From my understanding, which I will confirm Monday at dealership, it allows for an additional 1" spacer in the front only. Lessening the rake by up to 1" depending on install if adding to old kit or not.

I have the revised Mopar 2" and mine sits at least 1" higher than the other Rams at the dealership. Although I have the newer model, so I cannot speak for those who will be utilizing the TSB and getting the spacer added - although it is intended to be the same as the revised lift.

So does the ride feel the same as stock? I really don’t want it to be any stiffer, I like that the ram rides nice and smoothe . Thanks for the reply.

Just making sure I understand correctly. There is currently a 2” MOPAR lift kit available for 2019 Ram that has ability to add a 1” (added) spacer. And coming in May there will be an updated kit? And that kit will already have some sort of 1” extra lift for the front?
I’ve already purchased 35”x12” tires on 18” rims with 5 offset (not factory 18).
Thanks

100% correct on the above. And with that being said, the added 1" in the front hopefully will allow your +5 offset to clear at full lock, can't imagine it wouldn't.

My parts have been ordered but again we know how that goes lol. I know that I have the OG Mopar lift and I contacted the service manager direct about addressing the new part. In my opinion there should be NO extra cost associated with this as most of us paid an already hefty fee for this to begin with. Personally in my opinion unless it’s 2wd, our trucks automatically should have come with this.

Agreed, hopefully adding the 1" spacer as outlined in the TSB above does not cost you out of pocket.

I have no regrets on the factory 22's. I was deadest on aftermarket procomps but once I saw the 22s mounted with the 35s, everything looked perfect. And i'm more partial to a positive offset so it all worked out.

The ride is like stock as well, even with the 22 on 35.

Perfect, I was offered a set of oem 22” wheels but I couldn’t see me doing it unless I ran 35” tires on them..

For me the 33's looked wrong on the 22s and I wanted 35s regardless. They were not the cheapest decision, I will say that (1850$ for all 4 Toyo MTs) but seeing them on the truck, now I feel there is no other option then to go 35s from here on out.

I think Ram knew that they could build this truck with the 2" lift specifically so customers and even Ram employees, etc could enjoy a 35" tire without lifting it 4-6" - which I greatly appreciated, a lot of planning and forward thinking went into this truck when designed.
