No, I have no vibration at all. And mine has close to 12k miles on it now. You sure your tires are balanced well?

Yeah they are balanced and aligned. Not sure what else it could be. Bilstein needs to hurry!

I contacted Bilstein's the other day and they told me they have nothing for a truck with spacer lifts. So not sure if that means they have shocks out that will work or not. The guy didn't say much more.

Does anyone else feel their truck rides rough with the 3.5” SST kit? It could be my paranoia but I feel like I have a vibration at highway speeds. Trucks been aligned and tires balanced a few times already. Any ideas?

Do you still have your stock wheels and tires? If so put them on and drive it around see if you notice any difference.

I’ve got about 1/2” to 3/4” clearance but it works. Drove about 30 miles and it feels great. View attachment 33365 View attachment 33363 View attachment 33367 View attachment 33364 View attachment 33366 View attachment 33368
I just put the 3.5 in SST lift on my 19 1500 Laramie and have the same wheels with ridge grapplers 35/11.50. Measuring from the center of my hub (center of RAM) to fender (where the metal begins) Im right at 25.5 inches. Do you know your measurements? Also, do you know what the measurements were before adding the lift.

Did we ever find out what the over all height of the OPs truck was? I’m thinking going with the 3.5 lift and 35s but want to make sure it will still fit in my garage

I didn’t have an OP just a bighorn and with the 3.5 fits in my 7ft garage. Its tight but does it. Considering swaping out the kit though for the fabtech with coil springs

I’m sorry, when I said OP I meant “Original Poster” but either way, that’s what I needed to know. I only have 81” to play with.

35x12.5x20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers fit on OEM 20” wheels with no issues with the Ready Lift SST 3.5” kit. Will post pics when I get home.
Are the preload spacers installed? If so is the ride rough or still factory smooth? Is there any rubbing when the wheels are at a complete turn? I want to install this kit and keep my stock wheels. Just not sure if I should get the recommended 35x11.5 per readylift or go with the 35x12.5. The photo I attached is not my truck, but those are the same wheels I have. This was from readylifts website and had the sst kit and 35x11.5.

Hey everyone so I just recently lifted my Dodge Ram 1500 with Readylift 3.5" SST kit and 35x12.50x18 Pro Comp Tires and Wheels. It rides awesome minus needing some longer shocks which will be done eventually but no rubbing or cutting required. Check it out! Click the link below or see attached picture.

Would you happen to know the back spacing on your rims if any? Thanks and truck looks great I'm wanting to put this kit on my 21 rebel looking to stick with 18s still which came stock. just up in the air over going with 20" wheels the 18s on your looks good still and I dont want the tires sticking way outside of truck about like yours are good! Thanks again!

Sorry forgot to add to 1st reply, and did you ever get longer shocks and did it make a difference?

I ended up changing the kit. Went with a fabtech 3” coilovers
Oh really was there any particular reason ? I'm looking to purchase something for my Rebel as well but I'm not pulling the trigger till I can get some good info on different lifts. So how is the Fabtech 3 in? And what size tires did you go with that will fit under there without any rubbing or trimming? And thank you I appreciate you getting back with me as well!
