Just came across this kit from ReadyLift for the Airride Rams I have a 2021 1500 Limited.


My questions are this:

Has anyone fitted this kit yet?
What are Readylift UCA's traditionally like? Good strong no issues?
I already have the Daystar Spacers and Revel Links although not installed would I be better off with them as can get more adjustment (closer to 2") then the Readylift ones or am I best just sticking with Readylifts and only doing 1.5"?
What do you think would be better, Daystars softer spacers or the Readylift Fabricated ones?

Any other info would be appreciated.

Good questions… I’m following this thread. I tried install the daystar spacers, Mopar UCA and revel links but could not for the life of get the ball joint to kick loose… so I decided to just keep the stock UCA for now and then the angle looked absolutely miserable so I just put everything back to stock and will have someone install it for me… it’s so straight forward but I just couldn’t get it done

With all the people previously talking about levelling air rides etc I am surprised no real comments here?

So had a shop install mine today. Daystar spacers, revel links, and Mopar UCA. Added 35x12r20 open country RT and it drove so smooth. On one 15 mile drive home but so far so good. Dropped into aero mode when I hit 65mph no issues. Please this far and the stance is super nice!

Will these UCAs work the same as the ones guys were tapping for the daystar and link set up?

Going to check on my truck this morning amd help the mechanics out. Have the daystar with links, readylift kit with UCA and helwig sway bar.. might do a combo on the level to include best parts of both kits.. will let everyone know how the install goes as soon as they are done.

Interested as well. 2019 Limited thats new to me. I don't want a full lift just a level for the front end so I can put 33's on 18 inch OEM wheels I picked up used for $200 for the set.

So I got the ready lift UCA and spacer, bracket etc installed and think it was a great option. Truck is sitting slightly higher in the front now so I’ll need to look at using the revel links to adjust I’m guessing.. any help with link sizing, or measurements from fender to rim would help as I didn’t get proper measurements before the install.

sway bar went on fine so it’s just fine tuning the links amd ride height now. Also correcting left to right height difference. Will post pics if you like,

I'd like to see 'em!

I'm still trying to figure out if I want to go through all this for a level. I tried using just the links and it messed up the ride but good. So I know I definitely need the spacers, and probably the UCA's as well.

Another concern was that I think if you are going to lift the rear at all you need the adjustable end links for the Hellwig.

No rubbing at normal or aero heights.. haven’t tried full turn in entry exit but I’m happy there’s zero rubbing.

mill try to get pics tomorrow. Getting ceramic coating done next week so it’ll be perfect for some proper pics😉

Just left Total Chaos Fabrication in California today. They took my vehicle in as a Research and Development partner and we installed Air Suspension Compatible Upper Control Arms. Full clearance at full droop with 2” spacer and adjustable air links installed. Accommodates 37” tires! See pics below and follow me on Instagram for updates. Lots of air suspension performance parts on the way!
