Leveled my 2015 2500. Looks so much better and didn’t change the ride at all. I did run a shock extension on the stock shocks but now I have the Bilstein 5100 that are for 1-3 in lifts. I also decided to put air bags in the rear so I can level back out when towing.
Nice, I wanted to try the block first then as time goes move up to a proper leveling kit either on this truck or the next one 👍🏾
I still have the blocks just did away with the shock extensions with the Bilsteins.
2020 3500 Laramie Mega. I did mine 3 weeks ago. I went with a 2” puck and Bilstein 5100’s. You can also just drop the whole sway bar with 4 bolts. I found it to be much easier that messing with the booted track bar bolts. It made dropping the axle quick, but you do need two jacks and two jack stands.
Then put on some Falken Wildpeak AT3 295/70 r18. Looks sharp and they ride nice and quiet.
Yup, luckily we had the lift and was able to get it done with a jack and a jack stand
From your reaction it sounds like you are happy so that’s good. I’m not really a fan of leveling kits but again to each their own. The tires do look great.
Those were lifters on the bench or tool box tray or whatever that was.
Also man you all were making me nervous with that coil spring when he was trying to get it out and it under tension. I know it wasn’t a lot of tension but it is bad times for someone if those fly out of there when they are under tension.
It definitely met my expectations for look, now it’s time to see if towing is effected 👀…
Yup, have some footage of an engine they came out, may try to post this week or next!
Haha, we dropped the axle so they were not under load so it was fine but I do know what you mean 👍🏾👍🏾
@@JB_WhoWork sounds like that particular 6.4 Hemi has seen better days then. It would be an interesting video but will probably bring out a lot of haters lol.
On old small block Chevy’s like what’s in my racecar getting to the lifters wasn’t too bad of a job. Just had to take the intake off. But on the newer small block Chevy’s it’s a pretty big job. You have to take the heads off.
I’m looking forward to the reveal of your truck leveled on 35s.
Yea it came out of a SRT but it had over 150k miles and it was 8 years old so definitely higher probability for issues.
For the majority, even if it’s easy, it’s a lot of work with a proficient knowledge of engine breakdown… I wouldn’t do it lol 👍🏾
@@JB_WhoWork me either. Not on like my new truck. But the race car is a little different. Find top dead center, pull the distributer, unhook throttle cable and fuel lines and then it’s a matter of taking the intake off.
Them led headlights gonna blind the low folks! I leveled my 14 2500 and never had so many pissed off people flashing me in my life! Can't wait to see the squat with your 5th wheel hooked up.
Installed air bag in the rear, so it won't squat as much. When hook up your trailer.
I plan to level them down so they won’t blind people and I will definitely show footage of the try hooked up to the trailer 👍🏾
Stock shocks with no extension brackets even? Also trac bar needs to be torqued to 220-230ft pounds. That impact isn’t getting it right enough. When it’s not at the right torque the front end can move a little.
I saw the question. Those are camshaft lifters. No idea what engine there from though. Truck looks great!
Yup, they came out of a 6.4K HEMI
Thanks 👍🏾
OH MAN!!!! That front end height is perfect, looking forward to drive quality. Now the question is, do like your tires under the wheel weld? Or have a little poke to them? Looking forward to that reponse in your next video. 👍🏽
Dude it is 💯! Honestly I prefer them to be stock offset unless I went with a 3” lift then I would go with a different offset wheel to make it flush. Nothing wrong with the poke but I like to stay as close to stock since I pull my fifth wheel full time 👍🏾
Fantastic!
Now when you’re towing the ass end will be dragging instead of having the truck level as designed. Engineers spent many hours to work it all out. Tires look good for an off road unit going wheeling, with what you do you should have some 295 Michelin ltx ribbed tires, smooooooth riding, no noise, great fuel mileage, I’m getting 22 mpg with 3.73 gears.
One thing you will learn about me is I think things through but I do have a video coming on how it sits hooked up. The Nittos will give the Michelins a run for their money 👍🏾
Truck looks perfect, did you add an adjustable track bar? If not how did it drive after alignment?
Who needs to torque lug nuts when you've got an uggah duggah!
it's better for you and easier đó lower both side as almost same time .. i guess .. 🎉
Hey man I know this is an older video but just ordered this same level kit for my 2018 ram 2500 going to install soon. I was wondering do you need shock mount extensions or bigger struts with this kit? Also did you need to do an alignment afterwards??
Pretty easy install. Looking good!
Thanks bro, I plan on showing the whole thing this week 👍🏾
Awesome video! I know your enjoying it!
Thanks bro, it looks great, can’t wait to show it 👍🏾
Bro pucks are one of the worst options I know it is budget friendly, but shocks like Bilsteins would have been much better. But really Thuren or Carli is the way to go for these trucks. Glad you are happy with it but I guarantee if you drive a Truck with the any of the above mentioned products you would want to change out your pucks.
Since this is my first level, I want to test it out and if it’s terrible, I can always replace it with a Thuren or Carli level but won’t know unless I try it 👍🏾
Truck looks good! Thought about doing a puck on mine. Went with a Carli pintop instead, no regrets yet!
Thanks bro, I’m sure I will try a Carli in the future but I really wanted to go as cheap as possible to see how much it would effect ride. I documented the install just in case I hated it and needed to take it off 😂
@@JB_WhoWork understandable, it’s definitely the more affordable option! But the truck still looks killer! And I’d imagine you won’t hurt your ride quality any going with a small puck.
Yup, my truck seemed to look level to everyone that complimented it before but now it definitely looks level 👍🏾
so how did he get the track bar back in
Next time. Put the jack in the middle of the diff. Drop the axel. Got scared when i seen the pry bar. Who’s shop lol
Bro idk what kind of leveling kit that is but there is nothing holding the puck. No bolts anything looks dangerous that spring could slide out easily if rode rough. There should be a bolt through the hole of frame and puck with plate to keep it stationary, also there should at least be a bolt through old hole use for spring isolator nub you cut off CHECK OUT SUPREME SUSPENSION FRONT LEVELING KIT AND HOW IT GOES TOGETHER ON THEIR SITE be safe bro, bit sketchy for me.
Jb. love the channel. however. leveling kits? never understood them and Never will. I have a 2000 2500 2wd short bed 5.9 cummins. have owned it for 20 plus year. dudes always asking when you gonna level that? my response "the best leveling kit Ive ever found for this truck is about 2500 lbs of bricks" level and rides nice. what happens if I level the front end and then add the bricks?
my truck is the way it is for a reason. I
don't follow the crowd of sheep.
Thanks Jeff, so you’re right, you will have to add something to the rear and here was the follow up video I did and will answer your question:
Finally Leveled My RAM 3500 MegaCab On 35's - Added Timbrens To Keep Me Leveled While Towing!

Thanks again!
Hey Brother where are you located? I just retired and my wife is a traveling nurse. We plan to live out of our 5 th wheel and I’m moving up to a 3500 SRW MEGA CAB.
I was in MD but we are traveling right now
Much easier with with spring compressor
Damn that was dirty not letting us seek how it look lol. Why did you go with this type of leveling kit vs something like carli?
Yea I figured this was the install so I wanted to show the finished product and give my impressions 😅. I will answer this in a later video but there’s a reason why I did it this way 👍🏾
Sweet! Let us know how she rides. 🇺🇸💪
Yes sir, can’t wait to get the footage 👍🏾💪🏾🇺🇸
How does this affect the head lights, I know guys here jack up their trucks and then lights are shining straight out blinding on coming traffic. Are the lights adjustable? I’d like to lift the front of my new ram 2500
They are adjustable and it’s super easy to do after a lift, I plan on doing a video on this 👍🏾
All the other spacers I have seen installed had to be bolted on. These don’t?
Not at all, they are held on by the springs
@@JB_WhoWork ok thanks.
I think the strut level ride better
They should 👍🏾
I did my same thing within 2hrs using spring compressor,, but vice grip holding the nut. Mechanic rule NoNo, and breaker bar whats it called. And no shock extension adaptor? Or will ruined of your shock.
This is less than 2” level so that’s not necessary for this. If you plan on going 2.5” or more then you will need the extension for the shock 👍🏾
The extension came with my 2in leveling kit. Maybe it wasn’t needed but either way I used it at the time.
Rather be safe than sorry, my opinion.
@@JB_WhoWork after installation did it cleared the rubbing situation. I installed mine last year, but thinking of changing tires to 295/65/20.
It definitely clears now 👍🏾
Great video! Is that the ready lift 1.75?
Thanks, it is 👍🏾
Cool....
No way ! 🤓
Yes sir lol
Vice grips on a nut. Impact to reassemble. F'n HACK! 🤦
What????
😎
Yes 1st comment let's go
Thanks bro 🤝
He didn’t even show it from the side so I don’t even know WHAT a 1 3/4 lift looks like.
Get out of his way and let him work. Also 35’s don’t rub on Cummins stock
Do NOT install these on your trucks they are garbage. Save money and get an actual coil spring and shock.
