Mission Accomplished

Installed the Bilstein's set to max height. What a great way to spend a Sunday... freakin clown shoes (ridiculous). This probably could have been a lot easier but I was using hand tools. After a long toilsome day, we got em on. Measured the gap in the front and back. IDK what some other ppl are saying but even set to the MAX there is still a slight rake. Soooo spacer in the back doesn’t seem necessary unless you want the nose pointing down like before.

No rubbing. Sittin level. Looks great. Alignment next week.

Ill post some pics later if you would like to see.

Well mine is perfectly level. 40 1/8 inch ground to wheel well in both front and back. So I don't think you got yours set up to the max. Especially if you are still having a rake. Which you would have if only set to 2.1. Because there was a 2.2 inch difference when stock.

He might have them set to max.....Not every truck has the exact same rake.

I've heard of some trucks having an almost 3" rake from the factory.

I will be posting my pics soon. Just took some at the park and it is in fact perfectly level!!! Could not get good ones in my driveway cuz of the slope.

Hell, My '00 Ram wasn't even the same rake driver to pass side! (by almost an inch!)

Glad to hear you're leveled out. I'm really tempted to find a coil-over setup and make it work for my 2wd.

It looks great and that's all that matters.

Nice! Looks good.

 

[Thor09]

Hell yeah, looks great man! Can you measure from the ground to the fender edges instead, front and back?

 

[WhiteExpress]

Looks great!

I don't see the rake you are talking about. I think it looks really good.

That is strange that the front is not higher than the rear? Why in the hell is your truck so different than mine?
