So the ORP has the same lift as a Rebel, just smaller wheel/tire package? Does that mean when I was 'stock' I could fit the Rebel wheel/tire package on my ORP Longhorn?

*I have the Bilstein's on setting #2 w/ORP, so I'm sure I have the clearance now.

Yup, as mentioned, people with no ORP are able to use Rebel wheels/tires with no rubbing. However, 33" tires with aftermarket -12 or wider offset wheels could be an issue. The stock wheels are tucked in a bit.

Where were you able to get a Ready Lift bump stop spacer? When I called Ready Lift they would not agree to sell me individual parts of a kit and I can't seem to find any online. Thank you.

Yeah I am aware of the kit, but judging by his post, it appears ff13375 does not have the SST and was able to get just the bump spacer. Since RL won't sell me one, I'm trying to find out if there is somewhere else I should look aside from the buy/sell/trade forums. Thank you.

Just received my Mopar Lift UCA’s.. Gotta say not too impressed by the looks of them. Pretty cheap feel and look.

In reference to my last post though, make sure you get all the necessary hardware also. Attached is the Mopar 2" lift kit install PDF with all part numbers for referenced hardware. Good luck!

Thanks, Sugar. I had looked at the Mopar bump spacers and am still considering them, but the cost (~$60/each spacer before shipping cost and other required hardware) seems pretty steep. Maybe I'm being to picky?

Where did you find for 60? Everywhere I looked they were about 100. I would say 60 is a good price! I am currently debating about making my own set when I install my lift in spring.

I’m also looking at this setup. Wanna hear if anyone else has gone this route.

I’m thinking about either 5100 of 5160’s in the rear of my Rebel..
Wanting to know if it’s that much of an upgrade to the stock Rebel Bilstein 4600’s??

Hi folks!! First time poster. I have a 2020 Laramie. I have ordered Bilstein 5100's front and back. I plan to install the front on the highest lift position and add a 1" spacer on the rear. I also ordered the Rough Country UCA's, but on second look, they say they will only work if I have at least 3" of lift. Anyone have the RC UCA's with only 2.7" of lift? If they won't work, I guess I'll send them back and order a different set. Thanks in advance!! BTW, I previously had a 2015 with Bils but didn't go as high. Also having Toyo Open Country A/T III in 295/60r20 put on immediately after the Bilstein install.
No, you cannot use the RC UCA’s with less than 3” of lift. Someone asked the same question on the RC website and they responded with with the same answer.

Shoot. Either the price has gone up across the board, or more likely, I had been looking at the wrong thing. $100/spacer is way too much in my opinion.

Sorry I just saw the post. I emailed and told them I bought the kit from a friend and he lost the bump stop.

Finally got mine completed, Clip#7 up front, 1.5" ICON springs in rear, 35x11.50x20, stock rims. Total gain(with tires) in front ~4" ( 36.5 to 40.5), Rear total gain about ~3" from 38.25 to 42". So far the ride is about the same, maybe a little more bounce in the rear, road noise is higher then stock, fuel mileage is coming down quickly(expected). Best part I still fit in these small Texas garages

Got mine completed. Setting number 5, matching 5100s in rear, and replaced the wheels with a set of Rebels.
