I have searched high and low and can't seem to find any info on replacement coils to level my 2015 2500 with the 5.7 Hemi. I don't wanna go any higher than where I'm at now, seeing as how my current truck sits the same as a 6" lift 1500, not to mention 1" taller than my last truck lol. ac724be61e968025c2025d007d57cb64.jpgI'm currently running a 2 1/2" RCX level and shock extensions (couldn't wait more than 250mi to throw on new wheels and 35s)04cac837c8f6dcb180fecd040d8a640c.jpg I want to upgrade shocks on all 4 corners and was looking at the Bilstein 5100s as I've ran them in my last 3 lifted trucks and loved them. I also wanted to swap out my spacer for a longer coil but only seem to find for diesel and the 6.4 Hemi.

Have you looked at SD Truck Springs? If you can't find anything on their website, you can call their customer service line. They were great when I had to order from them.

I looked at their website, as well as other but didn't call. Website listings all I found were 5.7 Hemi & diesel coils for the 4 link front end, and 6.4 Hemi and diesel coils for the radius arm front end.

I guess I did not know there was a difference in the suspension components between the diesel and the gas trucks.

The coils have different spring rates between gasser and diesel engines, for the difference in weight.

There is no difference between the 6.4 and 5.7 as far as springs go; the trucks are the same weight. That said, there aren't any '14+ leveling coils on the market, Thuren has gas coils but they are 3"+ and require rear springs too. Your best bet is to order factory Power Wagon front springs and OE Bilstein Power Wagon shocks. The springs are +2" and softer than regular 2500 gas springs.

The 6.4 doesn't weigh more than the 5.7?

There might be some nominal difference but for all intents and purposes they are the same. Both are Mopar small blocks with relatively similar external dimensions. As far as suspension goes, search for 6.4 Hemi parts.

the tuftruck coils i had installed brought me up to level, but it took almost 4" to level it.



4"?? That did you have a spacer in the back? My 2 1/2" RCX spacer leaves me with a 1/4" of rake.

I'm going to wait a little longer until they come out with Hemi coils than if the 6.4 and 5.7 are interchangeable

Ram already makes a OE +2" linear rate leveling coil. Order front Power Wagon coils.

Interested in this also. I would assume the dealer, and I'm sure they will be pricey!
