Tons of back and forth with members on here, in particular @Quick_Shifter . Tons of research on other sites. I will say I made the correct decision. My rig drives like a dream.
The 2.5 looks really expensive but when put into perspective they cost a little more than a set of tires. @RJL1 was truly back and forth for almost a year with me. The kit he ended up with is the exact kit I run on my own truck. Minus the Core 4x4 rear end setup and hellwig sway bar. I don’t know anyone that regretted purchasing any 2.5 coilover, it’s money well spent
CAn you shed more light on the core 4x4 and hellwig sway bar please
There are a million threads on the hellwig (rear) sway bar. A quick summary is the oem parts are light and flimsy. The hellwig swaybar and core 4x4 are beefy. Hellwig has stiff and soft settings available. The core 4x4 control arms eliminate wheel hop. We like to pair them with a new track bar and swaybar end links. This makes the back of the truck feel like it’s riding on rails when hitting bumps and train track crossings etc.

@Nick@GotExhaust has these already packaged if you ask for the "quick_shifter" package. He incorporated some pretty steep discounts and we built some deals in together. It includes everything like the often overlooked extended brake lines
What are your bilsteins set at? Nevermind didnt see your signature. So you are sitting just under 5 1/2 in the front where a 6" lift with bilstein set to 0 would put you. The differences are so small. The bilstein set at 0 would be less of a preload and slightly softer ride. That is why my argument is always go with the 6". Turning down a 6" always gives a better outcome in ride quality. But the 4th Gen Ram loves that 5" front lift that is why @joeygster is so happy with his. Its looks GREAT!!!!
Might wanna add some Zone UCA's while you're at it. You going with the 3" or 5" springs in the back?
Already incorporated in @Nick@GotExhaust "quick_shifter" package
NICE! He's gonna LOVE that lift!!Already incorporated in @Nick@GotExhaust "quick_shifter" package
I believe its the Quick_shifter Stage 5 kit if memory serves. That included the Core 4x4 set up
We have a charger coming in, in about 18 weeks for long tubes and a whipple. When youre ready to upgrade that scat pack
I too had the same dilemma. I was able to get the SuperLift 6” kit for the same price as the 4”. I opted for the 4” for one simple reason. My wife is, shall we say, “vertically challenged “. She struggled getting in the truck with the 33’s and a leveling kit. I figured a 4” lift along with 35’s would pretty much be the max she could “comfortably “ get in and out. I have to admit, I really wanted the 6” kit, but functionally the 4” kit definitely was a better choice for us.
I have thought about that a lot and feel sorry for her... it she has a nice RAV4 she can use and maybe I will buy a custom ladder for her! Just joking she would kill me if she read this right now!
It’s ultra clean and drastic improvement
