Hey all, I have a 2022 RAM 1500 classic/tradesman 2wd 3.6L crew cab. I want to level the front of the vehicle 2-2.5” but just can’t seem to find anything on the internet. Need help?

As mentioned above, a classic is a 4th gen. So anything that would work for like a 2018 2wd would work for you.

I can help if interested. We offer suspension and much more. Message me if you would like to discuss options and pricing.

Rough Country is poor quality and rides terrible. There is a reason it is one of the cheapest options.

One thing I have never understood. People will spend $350 for pod lights and light bars but when it comes to suspension they go cheap. It's the last place you want to go cheap on. I have only gotten rough country spacers and that is it.

Don't go for the full 2.5 inches. It'll look just a hair bit high in front. There's no V6 kits, just universal RAM 1500... The Hemi is heavier. If you go for the full 2.5 inches, it will sit higher because there's less weight than the Hemi.

LOL it’s better to spread the truth in the forums to save a lot of fellow truck owners. It gets removed from virtually all other platforms because instead of putting money into r&d it goes into marketing. All other companies let their products speak for them rough country has to rely on the 8% that haven’t had a problem yet and pay to be top of every search engine

Thanks for all your replies and suggestions. Is there any reliable site or product (coil springs) that would fit my truck. I don’t go off roading, but I still want that factory ride and I don’t want to use spacers.

Since you have a classic it’s considered a 4th Gen and Maxtrac hands down has the best kits dollar for dollar on the market

What I did was to have it done by the dealership when I bought mine new. But the dealership provided there the leveling kit at no cost, who knows why, maybe we just got along well, but I did bring it up before I bought it saying, if you guys can't get me a discount, would you mind considering one favor?

But if that hasn't worked or can't work for you, just ask them. They will probably know a shop close by that does these regularly. Then with a referral maybe they might cut you a little slack. The cost quoted to the sales manager was $800 1 year ago. You could also just drop by a shop to see what they charge, letting them know that you will try 3 or 4 shops and have it done by the one with the lowest estimate. It's not a complicated job and any mechanic with experience installing these are capable.
