3.5” lift and 285/55/22 Nitto Ridge

[lkirtley23]

First time poster here and big thanks to this site! I did a fair amount of research from this site and just got back my 2021 Ram 1500 Night Edition with the addition of a RC 3.5” lift and 285/55/22 with 1/4” spacer.

Looks great. Did u need the spacers to fit? Any head on pictures? Are you tires outside your fenders any?

I think it would be too close (to upper control arm) for comfort without spacers. Tires do not stick out but keep in mind they are same width as stock

What spacers did you use?

did you use the 1" rc spacer in the rear or a larger one?

1/4”! I will be honest i do not know much about the spacers. My local shop suggested them (just in case) and i took their advice. Not sure if i really needed them but they are the experts not me. They do a ton of lifts including my dad and neighbors jeeps so i just took their advice

Bambohunter. I used the 1” but want that stock rake back so have a 3 “ I’m looking at using. Don’t know if it’ll work though. Any ideas?

Not sure about the 3” I’m using a 2” instead of the 1” on mine

Thanks. Did you get some rake back? How difficult was it to get the 2 inch spacer underneath the coil in the rear? Lastly from your experience do you have any problems with the rear shock bottoming out or the bump stop engaging?

I haven’t installed mine yet. Hoping to this week

Thanks. Can you post me a message when you do. If you struggle with those 2” spacers then I’m guessing I’m gonna be tortured by 3”.

I think you guys are talking about different spacers than me. I used the 1/4” wheel spacers so my tire does not hit upper control arm

Yes I asked about the wheel spacer but I was also curious about the 1” rear spacer on the lift. If you used it or stepped up to something taller?
