2019 RAM Rebel Lift Kit

[Dean V]

Has anyone installed the ReadyLIFT 3.5" SST Lift Kit or the Rough Country 3.5" Lift Kit on a 2019 Rebel without air suspension. Just got my Rebel and want to lift, but don't want to be the first.

Someone has to be first!

I see on Rough Country's site where there is a picture of a 19 Rebel with the lift so I'm sure it will work, but would like some feedback cause I've heard conflicting responses to if they will work or not.

They will work, however with the 3.5 lift, your cv joint angles and steering angles are probably going to be terrible. You already have a 1" lift, so essentially that makes it a 4.5" lift without a differential drop, longer steering knuckles etc.

Best bet would be the Readylift leveling kit with control arms.

Thanks for the information. Do you know if the Rebels 1" lift is only in the front? It looks like the ReadyLift 2" leveling kit (the one with the upper control arms) is included in the 3.5 kit. Thought about buying the whole kit and just leaving the front pre-load spacers out. Any thoughts?

The Rebel (or the offroad package) has a 1" lift all the way around, front and rear, obtained by a longer strut. I don't see any reason you couldn't use the whole kit minus the preload spacer, you would just still have about 2" of rake.

Hey, thanks again. I think I'll install the front leveling kit, then decide if I want the rake or not. Either way it will look better.

These trucks look good period. I am not a fan of having the rake but everybody has their own preference. I ordered the Readylift leveling kit as soon as it was available. I will probably be upgrading to the 3.5" kit seeing as I will never be taking this truck offroad or abusing it.

^^^ I'm holding out to see if any other manufacturers come up with something, but this is exactly what I would do if I wanted to lift this moment. I'm not really a fan of preload spacers and prefer to keep the rake anyway.

Other manufacturers have kits in the works, but my guess is it will be SEMA before we see any of them on the market. Same for fender flares and all other mods we aren't seeing yet.

Good to know, thanks again.

Yep, I agree. This is why I'm think about going to SEMA this year. I've skipped a few but I'm feeling froggy.

I installed the Readylift 2" leveling kit with UCA

I installed the Readylift 2" leveling kit with UCA View attachment 3944 View attachment 3943

That looks great. Thanks for posting. Guess I'll order that today.

Had the Daystar spacer kit for a 4th gen Ram installed, rides very close to stock. 20s and 35s going on tomorrow.

 

[VaderRebel]

I'm going with the Motofab 2.5" spacers and the Readylift UCA's that can go up to 6" lift. Fingers crossed it's a good combo.

I installed the ReadyLIFT 2" Leveling kit with the UCA's. Really only lifts 1.5", but does look much better. I may put the rest of the 3.5" lift on this next summer.
