I did the Falcon shocks on a 2019 Rebel. I'm still running factory rims and DuraTracs. No issues and still has a good ride. Went with this set up because I run a snow plow in the winter and tow a 22' boat in the summer. No problems with installation either went smooth. Have had them installed for not quite a year, very happy so far.

It looks really nice @SKREBEL, Great tires, and wheel combinations.

Quick question has anyone tried or looked into using the Falcons Performance Shocks?


I have a set but I'm currently running in the medium setting. I end up having to haul firewood and other heavy things on a pretty regular basis, keeping rake is a must for me - and the payload dial is a big plus!
Thusfar I like them quite a bit

Right now I'm starting to think that in the future, I'm going to switch from medium to level setting, run some new upper control arms, and throw on some 285/75/R18s.
Rake wise, I'm thinking about a 1in spacer in the rear would solve the rake need.
BUT idk if spacer works with the rebel or the falcon read shocks.

I went with the Readylift 2” leveling kit with their UCA’s. Did the work myself. Cooper STT Pro’s 295/70/18 on factory wheels. Super happy with how it turned out. View attachment 90603
Do you have anymore side shots of your truck? This is exactly what I’m thinking of doing to mine. Yours seems to look perfect

Got a 2022 Rebel, have had a 2" Ready Lift level kit with UCA put on it with 35" KO2's. Zero rubbing & drives great.

Just did this myself and was wondering how 35’s look. How wide did you go on them?

Are any of you able to still fit in a 7ft garage door or parking ramp after adding the 2" leveling kit and 35's?

I have a 2" level & 35's on my 2022 Rebel & I was in and out of my sons hospital parking garage with zero issues. Don't know the height, but I'm in Florida, the land of the jacked up trucks. lol.

this looks amazing. Nicely done.
You don’t have any lift in the rear?
Thank you. No lift in the rear. I just picked up a set of TRX take-offs that I will install after I finish wearing out these tires.

I am running Falcon shocks as well with 285/75/18 duratracs. I have JBA upper control arms with bora 1" spacers in the rear and .75" in the front. No rubbing and no modifications needed. As a matter of fact, I still have those little factory mudguards in the front. Love the ride and it handles likes a dream on and off road. Oh, I also have a Hellwig rear sway bar :)

Hey everyone,

I just purchased a 2020 Ram Rebel 4WD and so far I am really enjoying it. I got this truck as a daily so I am not looking to do a ton of modifications to it. However, I do want to give it as an aggressive as possible look without completely modifying the entire suspension. I have been researching on this site but I seem to be getting some confusing results. I was hoping one of you (or several) can assist me in going in the right direction. I will at most do mild off-roading but it would be seldom. So here is what I am wanting to do:

- Install a Leveling Kit (I've read that 2"-2.5" does the job). I'm fine with using a spacer kit at the top of the front struts. Is there a kit available that works with the Rebel (I see there is a kit from Fabtech, Icon, Daystar but not sure if they are compatible)? Will I need the Mopar Upper Control Arms?
- Replace the tires with the largest possible using the stock Rebel rims (I really like the stock wheels which is unusual for me). I have read 285/70R18 and 295/70R18 with some saying they rub and others say they don't. Will I need spacers if I go this route?
- I would like to retain the rest of the Rebel suspension as I really like it so not sure if this is an option or not.

Thanks for any help one of you can provide me on this. I know this question seems to get asked a lot but as I was combing through the forum, I couldn't seem to find a straight answer.

I just bought 285 75 18's, put them on stock rims with .25 spacer and have a 1.5 leveling kit, fits great!
