which kit should i get?

[Ryan1126]

i have a 2015 5.7l 2wd RCSB that i want to sit static, so perfectly level which kit do i need to drop the back, i just spent the last hour looking at threads and how many different results people got.

i dont want wobble issues
i dont want to change the shocks, just the springs
is a panhard bar necessary when only going 2"?

its between mcgaughys, belltech, or groundforce. i would prefer not to spend a ton so i can pick up a carven exhaust too.

If you want it properly done just get some 2" lowering springs new or used off someone. You shouldn't have wobble issues with just a 2". You definitely do not need to change the shocks. Panhard bar is not necessary. If you want to save a lot of money then just cut your stock ones.

id rather not cut my stock springs incase i ever decide to go back to stock height, its doubtfull but i like to play on the safe side.

I still have my stock rear springs that I cut. They are probably about a 2.5 to 3 inch drop. If you paid for the shipping I'd send them to you. I have no idea how much that would be though.

GF 2" rear drop springs would do the trick.

This is how mine sat with them.

Yep, they should be somewhere in my garage. As you may know, I have moved on to a 2/4 drop since then...

It looks like that is the only kit available for reg cabs. You might wanna call GF and see if they offer the springs only. However, I would run the GF shocks and springs, if I were you. The shocks work well the GF coils "spring rate". I remember the ride quality was excellent with this inexpenisve kit...

McGaughys does do springs only for a little less: McGaughy's 2" Rear Leveling Coil Springs 09-up Ram 1500

[Ryan1126]

A 12" lenght tip would be sufficient. You would need a 2.5" inlet.

^^^ You would need an adapter for those. But they would look nice.
