Correct, and it would be just fine with a BL as well. That will be something I do next.

Did you decide on trying this kit out on your 2wd?

I haven't decided yet. I think it will work, but I am leaning towards a spindle lift. I want to drive this truck for a long time and am afraid the spacer might affect other angles and cause premature wear. Thoughts?

Yes, it's a very loud metal to metal rattle. Sounds like the front end has serious problems. If that is what is suspected, contact Zone immediately and make sure they are involved. Especially if you already paid a shop to install it. I did the work myself, but if I had a shop rip my front end apart 3 times like I did to figure out the issue, I would expect Zone to cover the labor costs.

Anyone know if this will work on a 2014 1500 2WD? Seems like it should since it's just new UCA's and spacers, then again I have no idea the difference between the 4WD and 2WD suspension. Thanks!

This is not going to work on a 2wd. The UCAs are different. The 2wd UCAs have a centered ball joint and both sides are the same. The 4wd is offset and both sides are different.

The spacers are also different. You need a poly spacer that goes on top of the coil. Check out fat bobs garage, that's where I've always bought my 2wd spacers.

Yeah mine is really bad, any small bump i go over theres a loud "Clunk Clunk" sound, and i can feel it as well. Im not sure if id describe it as a rattle though.

Look at the pictures I posted, that will show you what to look for. If everything is tight, that's probably the problem. Zone needs to address this before they keep pumping these kits out. You contact them yet? Their customer service seems to be good.

That sucks, I hope Bully's could give them a ring. You shouldn't have to go through what I did to fix their design problem (if that is your issue). Good luck, and keep us posted.

Were they put on the right way? Ive read a few times of them being put on the wrong side, this causes handling issues and odd noises, ball joints are off centered and the longer part of the control arm should be towards the front, just somethin else to check
