Hey Guys,
I wanted to get your opinion on leveling out my 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie Sport.
I want to try and keep my truck riding smooth but I understand nothing is as smooth as stock.
Is there a right way to level it and a wrong way? I'll gladly pay the money to have it done right the first time.
Thanks.19ram.jpg
 
Strut spacers (motofab, RC, etc) will get you there. However I had to add airbags to the rear. The truck would sag when loaded up. This is the reason the truck comes with a rake from the factory. The ride wasn't affected.

I recommend the Motofab kit looks and rides great
 
I highly recommend the ReadyLift 2.5” level kit with upper control arms. It has been flawless and cheap for both of my 2019 Laramies.
 
going with the original question that was posted. If you have a stock 2019 Ram 1500 big horn edition with the natural rake from the factory. What leveling kit do you want to buy and or brand? Rough country sells a 2" (two inch) and motofab sells a 2.5"' or even a 3". I know there's tons of different brands but I am looking to do the same thing to my truck but haven't bought anything because i can't find a general answer about all the leveling manufacturers and what size inch i should get. Assuming that i'm right (however i'm probably not) I measured my own truck at the front right behind the back tire and it's 14" and at the rear right behind my back tire it's 17". So obviously that makes me think i would need a 3" leveling kit to level it right? However, on rough countries website, everyone that's bought the 2" leveling kit and has a factory truck with the factory rake say the 2" was plenty to give them that level look. I just wont wan't to buy a leveling kit and then have my truck look and ride with the front higher than the rear going down the road. I don't want to look like i'm towing something heavy when nothings there. I know some people like that style but it's just not for me.
 
motofab 2.5 left me dead nuts level. 39" ground to fender front and back
 
Measure your truck from the center of the wheel to the bottom lip of the fender. Front and back. Then see what your difference is and that will tell you what size kit to get. Some trucks need 2” while others need more. The best true 2” kit is the Daystar kit because it doesn’t rotate the strut. The Readylift kit is superb quality and the new UCAs are nice for peace of mind. The 4th gens were notorious for the upper ball joint getting pulled out of socket. The redesigned the UCAs but no telling how well they will hold up yet. MotoFab makes solid spacers as well.
