Rough Country N3 Leveling Struts for Ram 1500 4WD (2012–2018 & Ram 1500 Classic) - Fits 2.5" Front Lift, Preloaded Coil, Bolt-On Leveling

Really nice ride easy install well worth the money

Surprising the install went pretty smooth. The original tire gap was 5 inches from tire to wheel well with 20" rims and the 295 (33") tires. After the install the front gap was at 9". This was installed on a RAM 2016 and as I said all the bolts and parts removed easily. I was doing the wheel bearings at the same time and everything was easily accessible with a jack in the driveway. Because the wheel bearing added some pain to the install I can't say exactly what the time was but I would plan for 3 hours if you are just doing the front shocks. It may take longer due to the truck environment.I also added rear shocks with a two inch spring kit. If I hadn't the truck would have been squatted and that isn't what I was looking for. The rear was at a gap of 7" and that went to 9". This gave me 9" gap all around. Overall the system seems to ride well. I wish I could have found a complete system Made in the USA but the bilstein package had to reuse the springs on the front. I should have used bilstein for the rears for that reason.

These level the truck for sure, maybe too level. I think I'm going to have to add an inch to the rear now so I can have a little bit of a rake. The ride is great.As expected, you have to pry the lower arm down to get these in. It helps if you have another pair of hands to do that as you push them in and bolt em in place.

Increased ride height 2” after they settled in a couple of weeks.Rides really well.I recommend these.

The struts ride well and the ride feels firmer. Only did one test drive after installing and I will update if anything changes. The nuts that came with the struts are trash. They rounded off. I ended up swapping them out for the stock nuts which were much better. Overall I like them. I am knocking off 1 star because like others have said they raise the truck a little more than 2". I would say 2.5" but possibly just under 3". The front sits about a half inch higher than the rear now. Probably not enough for me to install spacers on the rear to compensate but I wish it raised it only 2" like advertised. If they settle at all I will change my review to 5 stars. But I don't think they will based off other reviews.

Huge difference work great

These are great! If amazon keeps deleting my reviews I will stop giving reviews all together.

Perfect level and ride control. Do not use the cheap spacer blocks they will eventually damage the upper strut mounts and wear out your strut springs. These Rough Country loaded leveling struts are easy to install, they have the right suspension geometry for a firm smooth ride plus give you the additional clearance for larger wheel and tire combos. Just be sure to get your truck aligned after installation. Love the ride height and control.
