Installed this (front pieces only) kit on my 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 with the air suspension ride. If you have the air suspension ride, you will also require links made to a custom (shortened) length. These links connect the upper control arm to the air suspension ride level sensors in the front. There is 1 sensor on each side of the front. I did not use the blocks for the rear as I was simply looking to level the front with the back. Once the level blocks were installed onto the front air struts, I successfully mounted 35x12.5r20 M/T tires all around without fender rubbing. Simply enough, the factory ride height is too low, causing issues when attempting to go through any considerable snow. I expect the truck to be much more capable this winter season.
If you have the air suspension and do not use custom length (shortened) links, your air suspension system will compensate to bring the front ride height down to the exact same height it once was, rendering this kit ineffective.
This build is not approved by the dealer or manufacturer. This kit is also not compatible for Rams with air ride suspensions, however, if you complete a quality custom job, you will find this kits works quite nicely, and at a nice price point.
Clarification: The reason this kit was installed versus simply installing the shortened air strut links is because the ride is very stiff without this kit shortening the distance the air struts need to expand. The custom links along with this leveling kit allow the truck's ride to feel like factory.
If you complete this work, you complete it at your own risk. I am not liable. I am simply sharing what I had to complete to allow this modern truck to be capable of handling tough winter driving conditions.
If you have the standard coil suspension, I expect this system will work great for the front and the back, however, I do not have that setup currently, therefore; it is just my assumption.
Happy leveling!
