Help! leveling my 2014 Ram 1500

[Jb800]

I just bought a 2014 Ram Big Horn 1500. The front is exactly 2 1/2" lower than the rear. I want to raise the front and not sure which way to go. Need some advice! Should I use Hellbent spacers or Bilstein 5100 shocks? If I use the spacer , are they a true 2" or 2 1/2" lift? What size should I use? I intend to keep the stock 20" tires.

I would stay away from spacers, and go with some kind of an adjustable shock/strut assembly, beware though bilsteins are on back order till at least May now, up until last week it was April but Bilstein changed it again.

bilstein if you can wait

I just ordered the Billsteins. I hope I made the right decision. They had them in stock at autoanything.com. He said they were the same part number as a 2013

Only thing I can recommended is to do a search....plenty of info on this topic floating around.

So with the Bilstein's do you go both front and rear or just front?

If you want a level and a real improved ride over factory, you just need to front 5100 shocks. Back shock replacements are less necessary, I didn't bother to change mine.

Have heard a few stories about people having issues with ball joints when levelling the 14's. I'm gonna wait for a bit before I level mine.

Hear of problems with leveling shocks or coil spacers?

Heard a couple of guys had their ball joints come apart putting the shocks in. Mind you maybe you can have the dealership put them in for you. Maybe there's a trick to it. You never know with Chrysler
