- Provide your RAM with increased ground clearance and enhanced off-road capabilities by installing the ReadyLIFT 3.50-Inch SST Lift Kit. This lift system is engineered to keep the factory ride quality while creating better clearance for larger tires by raising your truck by 3.50 inches at the front and 2 inches at the rear. As a result, it produces a strong and stable platform to support the new suspension design of your 2019-2021 RAM 1500, taking into serious consideration the new and unique design elements.
Heavy-Duty Control Arms. With ReadyLIFT’s superior craftsmanship and premium materials, the upper control arms in this kit are engineered to withstand extra strain when your suspension is bound up. The control arms are crafted using DOM tube steel with corrected ball joint angles. This design enables the ball joints to allow a full range of motion when used with most leveling kit and suspension lifts. In addition, these control arms feature a durable textured black finish and come fully assembled premium bushings for quiet, reliable function.
Durable Spacers. To ensure that your RAM will have a solid mount and even load distribution, this kit comes with heavy-duty lift components. The 3.50-inch front lift is provided by the CNC-machined billet aluminum top mount strut extensions and spring pre-load spacers. It works great without exceeding the CV limits which works well within the OEM tolerances. Moreover, it also includes all-new fabricated steel rear coil spacers that offer 2 inches of rear lift with rear bump stop extensions to control compression. amtrucks.at/3gY7X6Q

Watching these videos at 1.5x speed is unreal, especially the soundtrack in the background
Great Tutorial. I like the lift but on non rebels I would want the Bilstein's on 4 corners. Instructor is easy on the 👀's 😉.
They use the stock rear shocks. At least Rough country includes the rear shocks which is a must for a 3 5" lift.
I have this exact lift on my 2022 Ram 1500 Off Road 4x4.. It is great. The 35s fit great and the ride quality is still good. Even at highway speeds. Now I just need to fix the speedometer. It is off by 6 mph at 70, 5 mph at 55.
thanks for sharing! I have a 1500 coming in that also has the off road package. Its hard to find any videos on that configuration .
@@mr.a_runsultras7530 I have 35 x 11.5 inch wide tires. The 12.5s would rub without a spacer. Keep that in mind also.
@@steveb8883 what spacer do you recommend?
@@hcshorty10 I don't run one on this truck. The 11.5 inch tires don't rub. I did on my 17 Rubicon though. I can't remember the company. My local shop recommended them. I would definitely recommend the most hard core spacer you can find. It is better to buy a heavy duty American made spacer than to have a wheel break off at 70 on the highway.
Is it still holding up? I’ve seen some ball joint failures on the some post with the readylift upper control arm. I think I’m going to run the 2” readylift.
You now have a 4.5” lift. A little extreme for the axles and front end components.
After installing the lyft does the truck lean on the driver side about a 1/2 inch
Help what fits the 2019 classic???? My shop has tried three times but rough country is totally off, even tho they say it fits. The angle is way off???!
hot mechanik in the house
Why does readylift say to leave out the spacer on Ram Rebels but she uses a Ram Rebel in this install???
Which readyLIft SST Suspension Lift Kits are compatible with a 2022 Ram Rebel GT?
Why not include the torque specs when tightening everything down?
I guess torque specs dont matter?
I see that pineapple tattoo 👍🏼
That’s funny
You cannot install this lift kit on a 2021 RAM Rebel without it rubbing & it causes a very bad vibration over rough spots in road the whole truck vibrates.
Why is that?
The full 3.5" kit is not meant to be installed on Ram Rebel or trucks equipped with the Off-Road Group. As someone else in the comments mentioned, you now have 4.5" of lift in the front instead of 3.5", which is too much on the front suspension geometry without a differential drop/relocation kit.
Why did Readylift tell me that it would fit my 2021 Rebel. I had it installed about a month ago with larger tires (295/60/20) and it rides a little tougher but when. I hit large bumps on the road it feels like it bottoms out?
@@darrenhenson6669Not sure why they said it was OK considering it is mentioned on their website that it is not to be used with ORG/Rebel trucks. This topic has been discussed ad nauseum on the 5thgenrams forums. The rough ride can be attributed to the pre-load spacer and the significantly reduced downtravel in the suspension from running 1" taller springs (standard on Rebel) combined with the Readylift preload and tophat spacers.
You cannot install the front spacers or it will ride very rough, I see what you are talking about now but when I was watching the videos I only found one video that said to not install the front spacers after I had it installed on my truck. I have wasted about $2k now on installation.
@Matt Kistner No, you are incorrect. This debate was settled on the 5thgenram forums almost 4 years ago. If you use the Rebel coil springs (or coil springs from the ORG), the RL preload spacer, and the RL top hat spacer, you will get approximately 4.5" in the front. Even on Readylift's website, they say don't use the full kit on Rebel or ORP b/c of this reason. They recommend the user to leave out one of the spacers.
I know this is old but I got a response from Readylift saying to measure from the center hub up to the fender. If the measurement is 22 or greater, don’t use the preload spacer. If less, use the preload spacer.
Did it change the ride for the worst or better?
same for me
did you guys delete my comment ? it was a problem i'm having with my truck squats with lift at full turn, what the heck!!
if you check under your truck your lower A arm is rubbing on a little tab off of the steering knuckle. Same thing happened to me.
@@drewgalante472 yes, i took pictures of that, there is no apparent solution, that i know of the admin of this video deleted my original post. There is a little triangle shape that rubs with the control arm and the knuckle A buddy of mine just said to leave it alone, or just be vigilant of full turns, I also found a forum, aa few people with same issue but nobody provided a solution, so conclusion si that 3.5 INCH LIFTS with ram 1500 5th generation will have that , unless they come up with and aftermarket arm that is shaped different . I hoped @american trucks woudl provide some answers.
This kit does not fit in 19-present ram 1500. The front knuckles will rub agains the front springs and were down the springs. In the video you can clearly see the when turning wheel lock to lock that it binds. Have contacted sst about it and they said to take off kit and no other solution was given. Not recommended!
I will tell u this your Truck not will ride like OEM it will ride like shit and Squeak after a couple thousand miles
I have this exact setup (for now) and I've had no issues for thousands of miles.
I have this lift on and blew a strut out now im replacing the fronts with rancho quick lift which spacer do i need to put back on to keep it level?
They use the stock rear shocks. At least Rough country includes the rear shocks which is a must for a 3 5" lift.
