As the title says. Is there a manufacture that makes a lowering kit for the 2016 1500 4x4?

Both are accurate as long as you don't have the air ride suspension.

Can you help me with figuring out what I need to do with the 2/4 kit from MCGaughys? I have a 16' ram 1500 4x4 and I would like to use this kit but I have been told it is "not recommended" Mine is a quad cab also. Thank you in advance!

The McGaughys spindle kit will bolt right up. I dont like it myself because it makes the front wheels stick out about 1/2" which is why I went with the Ground Force kit.

You need to check the clearance of the lower control arm at the balljoint with the spindle if it doesn't have the machined window in it besides that it's a straight install. As Matt stated it does push the front track width out 1/2"-3/4" and I was running a set of rear spacers to even it all out.

All the new ones come machined and ready to go, so that shouldnt be a problem unless buying an older used kit.
