Anyone done a 1 inch front leveling kit?

[jgdblue]

I know it seems minimal, and maybe it isn’t worth the cost and hassle. The reason I am considering it is I am putting 275/60R20 Recon Grapplers on factory wheels, and I just want to raise the front a hair to have a little more room for the tire so it doesn’t look so stuffed in the front wheel well. I would rather not have to raise the rear end, but would still like a very slight bit of rake.

I found this kit, kind of expensive for that small of a lift, but not much more expensive than filling my 33 gallon tank today! Anyone done a 1 inch front level?

I am a new Ram 1500 owner so others may correct my statement here, if I am wrong.

Whether you lift it 1" or 2+" the process is the same. That is, it requires that you completely remove the struts and either 1) put a spacer above the spring, or 2) replace the struts with adjustable or longer struts. Either way, you still need to have it re-aligned afterwards. If you are going to go through this effort and cost, I would suggest you go with more like 2" of lift which will make your truck more level.

I just installed Bilstein 5100 adjustable struts on my 2023 Ram 1500. The Bilstein struts are more expensive than a simple spacer but are adjustable between 0" and 2.6", rather than the fixed lift height from a spacer. Though, you still have to completely remove the struts and re-align it if you decide to change the amount of lift after it is installed.

You can prob run those without a level with a little trimming. I did a 2” motofab level and it’s perfect
