I am having the dealer install the Mopar 2 inch lift on my 2020 Ram Laramie. They said they wanted to advise me that they have installed the kit on 2 previous trucks and it caused a traction control warning light. I searched, but couldn’t find any mention of anyone else having this issue. If you have had a lift kit installed, have you had any issues? TIA for any help on this.

I haven't seen anything about a lift causing the traction control warning light to come one. I have seen reports around the web of it coming on if placing larger tires and not recalibrating the speedo it could happen. I put a 3.5" lift on my 2020 1500 Big Horn Friday along with 35's and haven't had any warning lights yet. However, I just ordered Rough Country Speedometer Calibrator to address the speedo being a few miles off and updating the shift points.

Do you have the 6' bed? If so, this may be your problem. I was told by my dealer that for some reason, the Mopar 2" lift will not work on the longer bed. While it would fit, I was told that it would trigger the traction control light and that they would not be able to reset it.

I was told the exact opposite from my dealer... that the Mopar lift is only for trucks with the 6’4” bed.

I have the Mopar lift & 6’4” bed, no issues or light. My truck is a 4x2.

Dealers are CLUELESS.
I’ve had the Mopar lift with the short bed crew cab with zero issues for 10k miles.

Had anyone with the long bed AND 4x4 installed the MOPAR lift successfully without and traction/ CELs?

this is perplexing me and driving me crazy figuring out what could be issue with the bed. Here’s a thought...if you removed the bed completely, how the hell would the truck know what bed it has?

I’ve had my 2” lift in for 14 months. No problem. 6’4” bed. 2019 Ram 1500. I had mine installed by 4 Wheel Parts in Denver.

Bump! I have the 2"Mopar on a crew cab short bed and having the same issue. I also have ORP springs installed in the front. Any insight on this issue would be great.
