No Mopar Leveling kit for 2019's? Use one for 2018!

[VaderRebel]

So I wanted to have a level kit installed by my dealer upon delivery, because I was told it would be covered under the trucks 3year/60k warranty.

Now the salesman and his parts dept are trying to tell me there is no Mopar parts (leveling or lift kits) for a 2019 Rebel with coil suspension.

Can anyone out there confirm they have hands on a part number or that there is indeed no lift kits or level kits for the 2019 Rebel?

Direct from Mopar listing, same part number... not for any Rebel trims OR air ride equipped....

Great, but doesn't have factory warranty. But thanks, I'm realizing, true to the whole Ram experience, I'm not surprised that the trim I chose for the second time, has no Mopar lift parts available at delivery.

Kind of thought that it wouldn't fit a Rebel. With the Level 2 group you already getting 1 inch lift so why put a 2 inch lift on and only get another inch for $1500+.

Just wanted the leveling kit, but there isn't OEM parts available to be covered under full warranty. First world problem!

Go to Readlift.com Two version specific for 2019. Have factory authorized dealer install. I'm getting the level kit with upper control arms installed July 30th. Plus computer settings synchronized and aligned.

Thats what I was looking to do, but was told if the parts were Mopar parts and installed before delivery to me, they would be covered under warranty... which was worth the inflated price. Otherwise I'll be doing it myself and saving big once its off warranty.

Salesman is double checking, two mechanics in the shop have decent heads on their shoulders and realized the reason the level kit says not for Rebel is the Rebel used to be air ride only... 19' is the first year for coils. They're checking with FCA and if I can get factory warranty, I'm gonna level it next week.

I got this info from another manufacturer. Not sure if they share the same reason for supposedly incompatibility.

 

[VaderRebel]

I don't get it... there's nothing different on the Rebel from any 1500, just badging and interior.

You're telling me! I've talked to everyone and their grandma and nobody has any firm answers... except @BobbiBigWheels, but I'm not driving out to the west coast just for a level kit.
