Then you don't want the light I was going to suggest (it goes in your trailer hitch).

You can do something like this that taps into your trailer hitch (pre plug) with a T connector

SSC2 is newer then SSC1, pro is brighter and wider then sport, but if it's just for backing up imo SSC1 sport is the cheapest options

If you want the C1R can also be used as brake lights (which is what I have mounted in my trailer hitch). Might look kind of funny with 2 of them along with your taillights breaking.

It looks leveled to me I wonder if you have the adjustable links. U can look and see fairly easy if that’s what was done.

That's a shot of the drivers front. Everyone said it looked normal. I had trouble getting it into of2. Took it by the local ram dealer they reset the air suspension. And took care of the calibration failed message that would come up when you had no trailer attached.

I think it sits up higher than a few limited ones I've check out, but could just be in my head. This shot below is at normal height. Dealer told me everything looked normal and good.

What is themeasurement from the ground to the middle of the fender flare on the front? I can measure mine.
I think it might just look like that because of those rims and tires.

Yea I think those are stock links. U might have different links in the back or a spacer on top of the front bags

I’m not sure if I’m tripping but the liner looks cut?

Hey thanks, I'll measure it in the morning. Had to work last night. Rims are 22 inch and tires are 33s.

The dealer that I took it for service said the wheels and tires are not that much out of spec. Maybe some level kit was done in the front? They told me everything looked good and did a reset on the air suspension.

These are some cool options. My wife's step dad has an f250 with some really bright lights in the back and a light bar in the front. I guess I wouldn't call them reverse lights because he has to turn them on with one of the aux switches. They are bright though and look clean.

Yea I will take a good look tomorrow, it does look cut a little bit in that section. Wonder what the reason would be for that? I'll see if the passenger side matches. I have test drove two limited 1500s. In normal mode on my truck it seems bit higher up.

Appreciate you guys chiming in. Haven't had a new vehicle in 14 years so it's exciting.

This is aero height just over 39 inches.


This is normal height

This is entry/exit

Fronts and rears are about even in all modes. I think the truck sits up higher than stock. Tires are only 33 inch. If they are all even Maybe the front is leveled? Not sure on the stock height numbers from ground to fender.

It's definitely lifted. My 2021 Laramie has a Readylift 2" level and it's 38.5" at the front fender with 33's.

Did you measure front or rear?
I measured my front and it's much lower then my rear.
I was not on flat ground so take my measurements with a grain of salt, but nowhere close to yours. I have 22 inch rims and OEM tires 285/45R22
Looks like you have a 3-3.5 inch lift.

Sure looks to me like there is some sort of puck or spacer setting atop the air spring up front. I expected the silver "can" of the air spring to be tucked up under the "coil" bucket more, based on what I remember of trucks I looked at on lots.

Looks like you could possibly put a light or finger up there between the "coil" bucket top and the top of the air spring to see? I'd be comparing that specific section to other Limited suspensions on a dealer lot.

I think maybe my truck is leveled. Front and rear tires are very close in height for all levels. I haven't tried to go to off road one or two since the dealer reset the air suspension. Going to take a look tomorrow. I posted some pictures of the suspension, a few said the links look stock. So I'm not really sure what it has.

Yea I think I will do that, I am only a few miles away from a big dealer with tons of rams. I'll check out some limited trucks and see how they look around the air spring. Very well could be some kind of spacer as I getting an fault when trying to go to off road 2.

Thanks for these. Yes I did measure the front and rears, they were almost all exact. So there must be some level kit or spacers. I will check tomorrow to see if I can raise the truck to offroad 1 and 2. Your truck is set up like it should be, the rear suspension is always higher in the rear from the factory.

You may need to order some adjustable links to help with that
