level or intake

[moparman33]

im just trying to see what the majority of people would get. i have money for a k&n 77 series intake or a leveling kit and cant decide which one to get right now. just wondering what everyone thinks

 

[Bluesmoke91]

id start by thinking about what your future plans are...if you think your gonna wanna go with bigger tires eventually, then level...

 

[moparman33]

well its gettin a suspension upgrade, engine completely rebuilt, engine bolt ons(intake, exhaust, etc). but im not really sure of where to start though. soo many choices to little cash

 

[moparman33]

eventually its gettin a bds 6" suspension lift, 2" body lift and 37" tires

 

[Bluesmoke91]

hmm well since you're running with a 4.7 id probably go with the engine upgrades first so it can handle the 37s better...an definitely some new gears

 

[moparman33]

yeah i already thought about changin out the gears. it came stock with 3.55 i wanna go with something like 3.95

I think I would do the leveling kit first, then the engine upgrades and then the suspension upgrades.

alot of people on here will tell you to go with 4.56...really get that 4.7 running...idk if this is a possibility for you but as for me, im holding on to every bit of extra cash i can come up on and just gonna buy a used Hemi...i would love to upgrade from my POS 3.7

 

[moparman33]

my 4.7 is a lil gutless right now but that is gonna be corrected after my next deployment. i have the money to yank the engine, replace the crank, cams, go to a 08 intake manifold, headers, and possibly go .30 over on the cylinders. but like i said that is gonna have to wait a lil bit

^Are you a 2x4 or 4x4?

 

[Musclemckeester]

I'd say level.

 

[KGBIGCOUNTRY]

If he is a 4x4 he can level for the price of a front end alignment and bout 30 mins.

 

[LB3711]

I'd say level.

i agree

 

[moparman33]

kenneth- i have a 04 1500 4x4 w/ 4.7L

 

[moparman33]

If he is a 4x4 he can level for the price of a front end alignment and bout 30 mins.

it'll take a lil more than 30 min. I have torsion bars with keys. I dont have coil springs. its still fairly simple to do with the right tools, but im in the military and dont have time to do it myself so i planned on taking it to the local off road shop to install the keys if i get them. did the same to my wife's 04 durango 2 yrs ago and no problems, YET

 

[moparman33]

well i appreciate the input from y'all. i reckon that solves it, time to level it out

 

[bigbadram1500]

Sweet. Looking forward to the pics. Our trucks look so awesome leveled.

 

[Mad Cow]

My vote is for intake.
