Updated 2" Mopar Lift/Level Kit - Discussion

[Fuzznutz]

Interesting....so i think I might call my dealer today and check and see if they have them in stock. I'm seeing Bilstein 5100's are back in stock at Bilsteinlifts, so I think i might have some options.

I'm sorry, actually it took 2 weeks to get. I was in no hurry, and lost track of the time. I made a deal on truck with the Mopar lift, and wheels/tires on the 18th of March, the next day I was I told the wheels were 5 to 7 days out. The next week I went and did all the paperwork for the agreed upon March discounts before the month ended. I was told then the that the wheels were in, and they were having the lift expedited shipped. (Whatever that means?) Also at this time I added a spray in liner, so I was in a 3 or 4 day waiting line for that too. But within a week from that day the spray in was done, the lift was in and installed, and I picked it up on April 2nd. So it took a couple weeks to get the lift.

Likely a BDS or coilover.

Sorry if I missed it, why are you removing the Mopar lift and going with a different brand?

Gotcha, that makes sense to me. I just called my local dealer and she said the best couse of action is to place an order for the lift kit and when it comes in, they'll call. So she checked and they said 4/21 its supposed to come in. So I may just place my order now, cross my fingers it sticks to that time period. That's only 2 weeks out, so I'm ok with that.

Hello All,

Wanted to create a thread for pictures/discussions about the updated Mopar Lift/Level Kit (Part#: 77072424AB) - available early May for the public.

I luckily was one of the first to receive and can verify that it does sit closer to level than the original Mopar-Fox 2" Lift kits.
(Comparing another Ram side by side with the original 2" Mopar lift)

I will compile some side pictures and get measurements on Monday and post them Tuesday, as there are about 4 posts going around discussing this update.

IF YOU ALREADY OWN A MOPAR 2" KIT - please be advised there is a TSB That will allow you to drop off your Ram should you want the additional 1" in the front.
(I believe is free of charge but will confirm for those when I drop off my truck Monday for a detail)

Hope this thread helps, lets discuss!

Lol! There are 83 pages with plenty of info on this thread. Do a tiny bit of scrolling and you'll find everything you need, including all of the part number supersedes.

Ordered my Mopar kit today and they said 4/30 is the ETA. Super excited!

 

[EJ84]

Did you order online or from your local dealer?

Local dealer. I think online is sourcing from the same distributor as dealers. if I remember correctly, the dealer said he saw there were 215 on order nationally.

Finally getting around to mods on my 2019 5th gen and took me about 3 days to read through all 83 pages.... needless to say a lot of great information from all... I think im going with the Mopar lift (if its available anytime soon) along with the hellwig rear sway bar due to everything i read saying it runs a little loose on the back end. 295/60R20 tires ( keeping stock rims cause I like them and more cost effective). Anybody ever run Pro Comp A/T sport tires?

 

[GrayRam20]

Called my dealer and they are not even aware of the new lift yet, said to call back next month and he may know more, and even though there is a TSB, doesn't mean it'll be paid for by Mopar/dealer. So I guess I'll find out more next month

Uh oh, I hope you're not referring to the 2" lift?

I have the 2" lift that was put on Nov 11th 2020. I would love to have them update my current one to get the rake close to 0". And if that can be accomplished with the newer parts at little to no cost ill be doing that. But here in eastern PA the dealership I use isn't aware of the new part and asked...." how do you even know about this?"" HAHAHAAHA

Update with photos,
Do you guys think this rub is from lock to lock hit or something else?
And my 2" lift part number for the fun of it. Noticed when looking for a way to run my wires for a project currently working on for side lighting ....thats to come later haha

I am thinking if my little leveling kit in the front doesn't float my boat, then I will bite the bullet and get the Mopar/Fox factory lift.

Man, there's so many things to do to our trucks, it's mind blowing. TOO MANY DECISIONS!

It doesn't help that I am super indecisive.

Thread 'Mopar lift and new tires review' https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/mopar-lift-and-new-tires-review.30617/

2020 bighorn 4x4
-I purchased the mopar 2" lift from dealer $1408 tax included part# 77072424AC
-Installed and aligned $817.05 tax included
-$2225.05 complete total
Bought rebel wheels and tires takeoffs for $1000 private sale

Ride heights front and rear to wheel well
Stock 36/38
Lifted stock 275/65R18. 38.25/40.5
with rebel takeoffs 39/41 (gas tank almost empty)

Ride quality
Stock - unbelievable
Lifted - slightly harsher
Lifted with load E 33's- slightly more harsh

Hope this was helpful to everyone scouring the forums for details.
The ride on the end product is definitely stiffer then stock. Price u pay they say. I did get a screw in my duratrac the first week. Tire never lost pressure.it didn't even make it all the way through. We camp in northern arizona frequently. The tougher tire is a nice piece of mind when you're 40 miles from town. The 2" lift is perfect. Doesn't look obnoxious. Gets me where i gotta go. I don't plan on taking a $50k truck rock crawling so it suits my needs. It just looks like a beefy stock truck. Should have came this way. Here's a pic of me parked next to a chevy 4x4 too for comparison.
All photos have the mopar lift installed.

Does anyone know if the lift affects towing capacity?

It won't affect your towing capacity but def kills the gas mileage while towing...ask me how I know .

 

[Alxmlr789]

Does anyone know if the lift affects towing capacity?

A lift won’t, but taller tires will effectively reduce your pulling capacity as it lengthens your gear ratio. A 3.92 rear end with 35” tires drops the ratio to a 3.61, so somewhere in between a 3.55 and 3.92 tow rating.
