Add a leaf

[The Assassin]

Looking at doing an add a leaf kit on the Ram. Has anyone done this? How much lift would it add roughly? This is what I am looking at. And which kit would I need?

add a leaf spring dodge ram 1500 pickup 2002 - 2008

I would stick with the 444 or 552. Those other two will be way too stiff. It will be like driving a freight train.

10-4. How much lift should I expect George?

 

[RubberFrog]

A couple inches.

Fabtech sells AALs by lift height, as opposed to load capacity.

Work trucks care about load capacity, show trucks care about lift height. lol

 

[quietpeen]

isn't your truck level? Are you looking for some rake?

 

[RubberFrog]

He wants to lift the front more also.

The one that George so creatively linked to is 1.5 inches. But I imagine any add-a-leaf kit you get is going to stiffen the ride a good bit. And the higher the lift the stiffer it will be in the rear. But some people like that I guess. :********:

Well I just ordered the one that George posted. So ill be getting it hopefully by the end of the week!!!

Cool, keep me posted! I am still between that, and doing a larger rear block. Figure if I go from a 4" to a 6" rear block...then I'll set the front shocks up as high as they will go, and I'm done with lift.

Hows the ride?

 

[swamp_life hemi 05]

More stiff. Before it had a sorta bouncy ride on bumps, now its a more solid ride. Better handling in the corners too. Was a PITA to install but well worth it lol
