hey guys just wanted to show what the the 2017 Ram 2wd 5.7 Hemi looks like with the rough country 2” leveling springs installed.just installed them this last Sunday. overall I’m pretty happy about it. A little rougher of a ride which is to be expected as the springs are very heavy duty and thicker than the stock ones. But not bad at all.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Here is the before pic after I picked up the truck. upload_2018-8-16_19-50-35.png


And here is the after pic.

No. the shocks are the stock ones that came with it. I did need an alignment afterwards though.

Yeah the only thing about the new springs like i said earlier is that its a little bit of a rougher ride. everyday driving isn't bad on the highway or regular roads at all. in fact i don't really notice a difference but if your going through a parking lot and there's speed bumps or a big dip you will definitely know they are there.

I've been eyeing these RC springs also, did you install them yourself or have a shop do it?

Also, would you need to upgrade the upper control arm after doing so?

Thanks for the pics, I have been wanting to go with these. Hoping a 33 X 12.5 22" will fit ok on my stock R/T wheels with these springs.

No, the RC springs and an alignment are all you need, really happy with my results.OZzvYuI.jpg

What size tires are you running? Think I could get away with a 33X12.5 22" on a stock Ram R/T wheel?

I just put the Coopers on a month ago, LT275/65R20, no issues for me with these.
