I have a Big Horn 4x4 Crew Cab with the Mopar 2” lift installed. I’m wondering if it’s possible to add another 1” of lift to the front, and what the risks of doing this would be? Has anyone done this? Does anyone know if there is a 1” front spacer available? I’ve seen some 1/2” stackable spacers on eBay made by Wulf but I’m not sure if they would work. Thanks in advance.

If you were to add 1" to your lift I would recommend getting new uca's the angle from the Mopar uca's imo wouldn't hold up good.

I think you could add the readylift “2 inch with control arms” level (the one with the top-hat spacers) and be good to go, as that lift seems to only lift 1.5” in actual net, and comes with the arms you’ll want. That should give you about 3.5” to 3.6” total lift in front similar to the readylift 3.5” lift.

Why not just take spacer off rear? That seems easier & give a more level look

Changing the shock wont do anything (the spring spacer is what creates the lift). Just remove the spacer from the rear, or put in a .75" spacer or 1" spacer instead of the 2" mopar one.

I assume take the mopar bump stock off and relocate the track bar back to original position too?

You will be fine removing and re setting rear track back bar. Loses track bar bolts, bounce truck then take drive around the block if you will. Then tighten them back up

And if you remove the bump stops and Track Bar Relocation Bracket, keep them, I might be interested in them $$$, lol!

Just checking to see if anyone has added a front spacer to the 2” Mopar lift. If so, can you let me know your experience? Thanks.

Just trying to put this post back into play. Is there anyone out there who has added a top hat spacer, coil spring spacer, or an ORP spring to the front end of a truck with the Mopar 2" lift? There has to be somebody. Myself and others are really interested in understanding what you used and your experience. Note - I understand from another post that there may soon be a new Mopar lift that will be more level than the current Mopar lift, but I (and quite a few others) are looking for mods to the current Mopar lift. Thanks.

Exactly as I don’t want nor need to buy another Mopar lift, just want what I currently have leveled also.

Way back in 2018... I believe Rusty Mechanic on the Youtube added 2" top hat spacers to the Mopar lift for a couple Dealers around Him... There is also other post on adding spacers on the ORG Trucks and what not's... Problem is, you gotta search through all the Post's because most people that did such to there Trucks are no longer Active on the Forums.

Is this a new bulletin and are the spacers included? In regards to The warranty reference, does that mean warranty will pay to have the spacers put in?
