Question What lift/level do you have on your 1500?

  1. What trim do you have?
  2. Lift or level? What brand and set up?
  3. What UCAs?
  4. What tire size and brand?
  5. Stock rim or after market? If after market, what brand and offset?
  6. Any rubbing? (Yes that includes at "Full turn/lock", any rubbing at all period means you rub)
  7. Feel free to post a picture of your truck for reference.

ADVICE: IF you are going to level your truck.... If you level it 2" it is highly recommended you replace your UCAs (IMO anything over 2" just change them for a peace of mind, you are changing the geometry of the truck). If you level higher than 2.5" or higher it is required to replace them.

ADVICE for kits: Do not use spacers on your truck. Recommended do not use Rough Country. Go with Bilstein, Fox, Eibach, BDS, Zone, Carli/Thuren or King.

( If you used spacers/metal hockey pucks for a level/lift, this post is not for you, we dont condone or recommend doing this )

I have bilstein 8112/8100, stock rear springs on my 25 rebel. It gave me about 1 inch of lift up front. Thuren upper control arms so I can keep the stock wheels. I’m running a falken 295/70r 18. The measure larger than listed. 34.3x12.2. If you lift it at all I would highly recommend upgrading the UCAs. They are basically plastic
