Need help with leveling options

[Indaram]

Hey everyone!

I'd like to level my 23 Laramie Sport 2wd but have a couple things I have to take into consideration. 1 being I have to keep the overall height of the truck under 7ft as much as possible due to my works stupid parking garage.. so just want to lift the front 2-2.5" id assume with no rear lift. I do not want to use any type of puck and know I'll need new UCAs. Also if possible I would like to get full strut package so I don't need to use a spring compressor.

That said, I have read enough that RC is not the most reliable to go with and many say the Bilstein are the way to go. Do they offer a full strut set to 2-2.5" lift and what UCAs should I get?

I plan to stick with 33" tires to keep overall height down compared to 35s

Thanks!

Bilstein are perfect. I went up 2" in front. No uca used as it was just 2".
Ram is level and.looks and rides great with no issues

Your truck looks great! I found the 5100s assembly as a complete strut. What setting/clip number did you use? I assume it's 5 get it level?

EDIT: I found your post from Dec 2022 saying you set it to #5 but also added a 1" rear spacer? If I don't want the spacer Im thinking I should put the clip on #4 I guess.

Also I got the part #s for the Mopar UCAs for their lift kit and will probably get them to be safe.

Below is what I'm looking at. It says 4wd but from everything I can tell a 2wd is the same?

This is far and away the best level for 99.9% of all 1500's.

I also did the Bilsteins and love them. I however did use spring compressors and swapped the springs over. Was def a PITA but I don't mind doing the work and would rather.

yeah everything one needs and require no additional tweaking, thinking, modifying, or engineering.
no spring compressor needed as well.

Sorry for the delay haven't been on site in awhile. NO rear spacer at all. I have Wheel spacers, 1 1/2" wheel spacers. Only did the level to front. No uca change as it was only a 2" level and have no issues.
