need little help

[yousef]

hello guys .. i have a 2011 ram 1500 longhorn and i upgrade it with all 4 new belisten 5100 shocks set on 2.1 front and 1.5" icon coil springs at the rear .

so am thinking about set the front shocks at 2.8 but i need to lift the rear from 1.5" to 3" and dont know how .. if i wanna put a coil spacer the rear shock ( which is for 0 to 1" lift ) will not handle the extra 2 inch lift .

i have found a rough country rear shocks which will allow me to go from 0 to 3" of lift but i dont know how it will perform .. it will be as amooth as the blisten or stiffer ??

just need help to know how to get the 3 inch rear lift for my truck .

thank you all

rear bilsteins come in the longer length, you will be able to use a rear spacer... The front bils will settle to around 2.5. The ride should not suffer

so bils in the rear able to get 1" lift over the stock hight ... i want to have a 2.5 to 3" rear lift which means over a 1.5 to 2" lift higher than what should the rear bils handle or made for

Nick from got exhaust has icon rear shocks on their way to me. They are good to 3 inches. What you are talking about doing is exactly what I am doing also. Those Icon shocks people speak highly of.

You’ll need a rear brake line drop bracket, panhard bar relocation bracket and bumpstop extensions for that much rear lift. You might need to control arm bracket or adjustable control arms to correct the driveline angle as well.

and for me ( 2.5" front and 3" rear lift) I dont need all of these right ?

For the 3” rear lift, I would order the entire rear box kit from Zone. This will give you the 3” rear coils, bumpstop extensions, proper length rear sway bar extensions, nuts bolts etc.

Zone is D2408 and runs about $400

Fox rear shock p/n 98224758 is good shock for that kit

You have a link for the panhard bar bracket or will I just have to go to the adjustable? Everything else I have

ok great, Carli makes the panhard drop bracket to get it parallel to the ground but you might still want to consider the core4x4 adjustable panhard bar

Thank you. I was considering the adjustable in the near future but if this bracket will do the job for now until I pick one up I'll order it up. Just dumped a couple thousand into parts the last month or so so I was trying to hold off on the core 4x4 stuff for a while. The brake line relocation I was just going to fab up as I have on other trucks in the past bump stops I have been looking for extended ones but I know that if I dont get them by the install I can slide under another time and toss them on. Thank you for the help
