Gaps with body lift?

97_ram · Jun 27, 2015

I've got a 2.5" leveling lift kit ready to go in my truck, but I know it won't be tall enough to keep the tires from rubbing so I want to get a 3" body lift, are there gaps In between the bumpers and the body? And how hard is it to put in? Thanks.

The kit should come with bumper brackets to raise them as well. If you take your time and are somewhat compatent with hand tools you should be able to do it with out any problems.

How did you prep/paint your front bumper? :High 5:

The PA kit should come with bumper brackets to raise and keep them level. May want to look into gap covers as well.

Don't need gap covers for the rams as we have wheel well liners that cover it with the bl.

I popped the plastic off, sanded the chrome down with a low grit orbital sander, and then higher count sander, used some self etching primer, then normal primer and sanded that smooth the fill in any scratches, and then used a whole bunch of black gloss to try to keep the paint from chipping or peeling, and for the plastic i just wiped it down with alcohol and painted it with plastic bonding paint
