Finally Lifted!

[AcroNomad]

I finally got it done - Rough Country 6" lift with Ridge Grappler 35s on my stock rims. I had to run 2" spacers for the fitment, but it's good. Slight rub at full turn in, but manageable at the moment.

Wheel liners and fender flares coming this week! Super happy with this!

Nice setup! Post some updated photos once the wheel well liners and flares are installed.

Getting a zone 6” kit installed next week! Keeping my stock 20” wheels as well. I ordered 1.5” spacers for my wheels. Do you have more pictures down the side of the truck to see the offset? A little worried the spacers I ordered won’t be enough. Thanks!

I'll take some shots for ya. I went with 2 because I didn't want to shave the studs down.

It's weird because it looks like the front sticks out more? I guess that's why I saw other people doing 1 1/2 in the front and 2 in the back for spacers?

It does look like the front's stick out a little more. After I had my lift installed, I also thought my truck was front high, especially when I looked at the space above the front tire to the fender compared to the back. I ended up having Daystar 3'/4" spacers installed on top of the rear coils and it doesn't look front high now.

Yup, from the factory, your front pokes out just about a half an inch or so more than the rear. Harder to tell when still stock and inside the well. Pretty noticeable when you add bigger meats.

Huge difference. Looks great.

Huh. Did not know that. Is the factory wheel offset different from factory? Cause everyone’s builds on here I’ve seen they have the same backspacing for the front and rear and looks flush

5th Gen Rams have a .4" difference in track between the front and rear, with the front being wider.

Thanks for that. I have 1.5” spacer on the way. Look like I’ll be buying a pair or 2 inch as well

When you do the 1.5" let me know how much the shaving was or if it looks sketchy.

I will. From what I’ve seen on these forums, anything over an inch and you shouldn’t have to shave studs. The wheels on my Built to serve have pockets in the back for the studs. I’ll share pics when she’s outa the shop

It depends on your wheel type. The OEM Rebel wheels can easily accommodate 3/4" spacers. The wheel pocket depth is 1".
