Motofab 2” top hats on 2022 big horn ORG

[Jmd_923]

From what I have gathered from reading different posts if I put the 2” top hats on With my ORG that should be the same as a non-ORG with a 3” level, am I a correct about that? And now being at 3” is it a must that I install new UCA’s? I’m hoping to run a 22” x 12” wheel with a -51 offset, tires that are 285/45r22, would anyone with more knowledge than myself let me know if that would fit? Thank you from a first time truck owner

From personal experience on a previous truck plus advise from a local installer shop. Yes new uca's at 3" lift.
I am currently at 2.5 and had some concerns but after getting some feedback in the forum and from the shop i decided to keep the stock uca's for now.
And yes you will be at 3" with the top hat spacer and org

With org and 2.5 and above it’s recommended. Many with 2 hasn’t seem to be any issues. 2.5 is at the border line and recommend, tho I haven’t come across it. 3 would be pushing it past it’s stress point.

Yea I really couldn't find many that went with a 2.5. The majority go for 2".
I went with 2" on my previous 4th gen and my other current vehicle. No problems what so ever after 3 years. I did see a you tube video of top hat spacers issues but after 5 years or so, which to me would be consider normal wear
Initially I was also going to go with the 2" top hat spacer but realized I only had a 1.5 rake and I would be nose high
So went with the Strut lift, first I did 1" and felt it wasn't enough and went to 1.5 to be completely level. Getting the upper control arm loose was hard.
I am some what concern with the angle so I might still end up getting new uca's

This OPG with 3in motofab front and 1.5in rear with 325/65/18. I have UCAs and i would say they are a must. This combo gave me 3.5in lift. Center of hub to fender lip was 22.5in before and right at 26in after. Ive seen varying numbers of the actually "lift" of the OPG so these are just my numbers. Truck is a 2019 bughorn.

At minimum with 2” level. When I have the free cash, which doesn’t seem to be much. I’ll grab the mopar ucas that come with their lift kits for just a piece of mind. Just little more travel then org ones. Then after that turns into when I have free time to do them…

Will the 2” level kit level out the truck with the off road group I have on my 2019 ram 1500 or do I need the 2.5” level

It’s close but it is .5 lower then rear. To me the 2.5 I’ve seen makes front look higher. That my perspective

Best to measure how much rake you have. Some of these trucks measure all over. My 2021 has the org and i only had a 1.5 difference front to back. So even a 2" motofab would have put me nose high. I initially ordered the 2" motofab because it is cheaper and easier to install but ended up returning it and went for the ride high adjustable struts to add 1.5 for a level look

Possibly doing the same

What lifted struts u have

 

[puba08]

Bilstein or Eibach probably. I have the Eibachs after ditching the motofab spacers.

Belltech. Similar function as bilsteins. Can go up in increaments of 1/2".
With 2" max on org

Bilsteins were like unicorns. No where to be found. I skip the eibachs because their rep said it would not fit the org. But a few here have them with no issues and have pretty goods reviews

Only a handful have tried the belltech. Overall pretty good. Maybe a little stiff but i heard a few with bilsteins have the same comment
