Another leveled Air Ride Ram

[Bay Area RAM]

Just thought I would share as many others have done some pics and details of my leveled Ram. If not for this forum I wouldn’t have discovered the ‘work around’ to level my Limited. For anyone considering this Mod I would simply say go for it. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and the ride is like driving on a pillow....

Revel Links front only measuring 2.25 inches eye to eye.... truck is dead nuts level. I might try the rear links that came with the kit and bring up the rear 1/2”.

Daystar 2.5” Spacer up front.... drove for 2 weeks without these and links only and all I can say is night and day difference.

Toyo open country All terrains 295/60R20 on RBP 20x9 Rims with zero offset. All in all gives the truck an aggressive stance with a really comfortable ride and minimal road noise. Went for the chrome rims that looked a little like the OEM rims because my last truck was all blacked out and I wanted something different.

All air ride modes work as normal and all the pics are in the ‘normal’ setting. No rubbing in any mode.

Enjoy.....

Thanks for this, I am highly considering leveling my Limited as well. Would be keeping stock wheels with possible spacers though.

Did you happen to install yourself, or have a professional shop do the work?

If installed yourself, what is the process for installing the DayStar portion? Do you need to disconnect any air ride hoses, etc in the process? I have installed a leveling kit once before on my old Tundra, but not sure I want to try messing with the air ride on these trucks.

Lots of threads on here about this..... search is your friend. There is also a good YouTube video floating around showing a guy with are ride putting on the daystar spacer that everyone is using.

Because I got tires and rims at the same time I had a shop do it for me. Worth every penny and they did the alignment after which is recommended. The biggest concern that I could see is ensure i g that you don’t lose too much nitrogen from the bags during the install or you’ll need a recharge from the dealer.

I see you're in the Bay Area too. Where did you have the spacers installed? I've already installed the Revel links and I have the Daystars in the garage, I just need to have them put in.

I'm not far from the bay and want to know the same haha - I'm tempted to do this but would need to make the time. if a shop already has a few under their belt, it'll save me some time to have a shop do it (can't believe i'm saying that, but so much to do, so little time)

Bay area ram, is there any rubbing at all and do you have wheel spacers? I have your level height with mopar lift with mods. Thinking about using your tire size. Beautiful ride !!

I went to a trusted shop that's been lifting and working on my trucks for over 20 years. With that said this is the first one that they've done (air ride with links and spacers) and they said it was pretty straight forward. Give them a call. Advance truck in Morgan hill.

Dude... I get it completely. If you need justification to have a shop do it don't forget you should get an alignment done after.... not too many people have that at home.

No rubbing in any air ride mode forward or backwards. There is one spot that might make contact ( picture the mudflat plastic piece to the rear of the front fender closest to your feet) if your in aero and turned really sharp but that would be unlikely and it's easily fixed by taking a 1/4" off with an exacto knife. I had to do that anyway with almost every lifted truck I've ever owned.

No wheel spacers either.... I wouldn't trust them especially since I tow with the truck. My opinion is they're not needed... zero offset and the tires barely stick out of the fender flare. I'm super happy....

Has anyone with the Daystar spacer lifted their truck up on the frame to see what binds on full extension?

Great looking truck !! With Air Ride, sitting in normal mode, this is how the truck should look ...nice and level. Also, great choice in tire size, wheel well looks plenty filled while not having any rub.

@barakutha , Great looking truck as well. Since you kept the stock 22" Ltd wheels ...how does it right with new tires and leveling? I would hope better than stock given more sidewall. Did you keep the 22's because you like the look or just cost savings (not having to buy new wheels)? Since you kept the stock wheels, how much do the tires hang out from the fenders?

I like the style of the stock 22s. They don’t stick out, I didn’t add spacers or anything.

Ride is a slightly rougher with the tires being 10ply, but not bad, worth it for the planted feel.

I just leveled my 2019 Rebel with the revel links and daystars. I also switched out the UCA’s to the mopar loft arms. Love the ride and all works great. I did notice my links being off in position. Pics are of driver and passenger front. Driver side seems correct, passenger is a little off? Thoughts?

 

[Mainesilver]

For all those running the daystar spacers-what model# are you using?searching the threads a couple of part numbers have been used. Daystar said they do not have a spacer for the 2019 new style ram with air ride yet. I am looking to do this mod and want to get the right one.thanks!

Super nice... Really like those wheels.
