Level/Lifted input…..

[UPSman]

Probably been answered on here I’m sure, but here goes…….on my 21 Bighorn I leveled the front with the 2 inch Motofab spacers. In my opinion it made the truck perfectly level. Didn’t need anything on the rear. For my 26 model I want to go a little higher. Preferably 3-4 inches total. I’m leaning towards the KSP spacers with the UCA’s. Going off the numbers from the 21……assuming 2 inch front sets it level, if I’d go 3” I’d need 1 inch rear, 4 inch front, 2 inch rear……etc etc. Has anyone confirmed that to be true ?

I was able to run 33x12.50x20’s (stock rims) on the 21 model with 1.5” KSP wheel spacers no issues. Had a good stance.

If I go 3-4 inches total with the 26 model, I may go aftermarket rim setup and stick with 33’s or go to 35’s if the 33 would look wrong with that much of a lift. Offset rims to the extent of around -12. Not a lot of poke, but an inch or so sticking out.

Any input is appreciated.

Do not use spacers. Period. End of story. Its the absolute worst, most wrong way to level these trucks.

If you want any more than 2-2.5” inches of lift, just plan to go with a 4-6” kit that actually has drop brackets. Those kits will typically be setup for the rear to be level.

Agree with the above. Sounds to me like you're looking for a 4 inch kit. Do some looking at the custom offsets gallery, look at other guys running 4 inch lifts and figure out what wheel and tire combo you want to go with to finish it out.

I’m not sure about all the negativity about leveling spacers. I’ve levelled 2 trucks with the front pucks. Several miles after with no issues at all. I haven’t went beyond 2 inches on each, (my 08 Silverado, my 21 Ram) and after alignment had zero problems at all. I get it’s not “ideal” but I think keeping it 2 inches max is perfectly acceptable. Even looking at Custom Offsets gallery as you suggested when you look at a lot of the members build products……they use them too.

Beyond 2” yes I’d feel much more comfortable having UCA designed for the new angle of the bolt.

Because they are absolute trash

I'm sure they work "OK" for most people which is why they are still able to sell them, but I know firsthand several people that as long as it sits 2 inches higher they couldn't care less about the ride quality and freshly messed up alignment.

While I haven't seen it personally, there are many stories of the bolts on the top of those spacers coming loose and wobbling, destroying themselves or the shock tower. For whatever reason that doesn't happen when people install actual lift struts and corrected control arms.

Don't get me started on rear coil spacers
