Finished up the level on my truck with the motofab 2.5” level and I’m very impressed. Rides like stock IMO and truck sits perfectly level. Just one trick i learned installing it was to unbolt the top UCA bolts and loosen the axle nut for more wiggle room and you won’t havr to worry about tearing the ball joint boot.

Here’s a picture after about 30 miles and she’s all settled down. Was picking up my new wheels from fedex so don’t mind the mediocre picture.

I might be very seriously interested in buying your takeoff wheels. 20" correct?

I see Motofab offers a 3” level kit as well. I am looking for the nice level look. Do you think the 2.5” did that, or should I opt for the 3”?

You would be served best if you measured your truck. Not saying that to be a prick, but each one varies slightly from the factory. Measure from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the fender. Do it for front and back and see what the difference is. Depending on your truck, 3" may make the front sit slightly higher than the rear. More than likely that the 2.5" kit will be all that you need.

The Motofab strut top spacers are actual gains, not nominal like some kits. You want to be very accurate when choosing. 2.5" is all it took to level my Rebel.

Do you have the Motofab part number? I just want to confirm that it will fit the “new” 2019 ram. I am getting conflicting information on different websites.

Any of the top mount spacers from the 4th gen 4wd Rams will fit the 2019s (2wd or 4wd) as the strut assembly has not changed. When I received my Readylift kit, it was even still marked on the box as only fitting up to the 2018s. Went on no problem.

It's on my truck and at least 4 others on this forum... order with extreme confidence.

No real ride difference?
The only difference i notice is from the smaller sidewall from my tires. So to answer your question, in my personal opinion, there’s no ride difference. 110% satisfied with the leveling kit from Motofab.

I ordered mine off amazon for $65. Same exact kit and actually my buddy just sent me this picture showing they’ve included the 2019 ram. BA6F5C92-DD06-48BE-8BDB-C7767A9FDFCC.png
