If I’ve ordered a 2022 2500 4x4 night edition from dealer and want the front “leveled”, what is the minimal lift I can use.
Recommend factory to put it on?
Does it help or hurt the smoothness of the ride?

I had the dealer install the Carli 2.5” premium level kit with the adjustable track bar, and Fox 2.0 shocks that are adjusted just for the HD Ram trucks. The ride with the 35” tires in 18” wheels is infinitely better than stock. My truck, 2022 2500 ccsb ctd rides like a dream.

if you're looking for a true level, a 1" spacer will do all ya need. add a good set of shocks and good to go. most folks, including me, go carli.. from 2" on up.

the bilstein 2.3" level kit with resi shocks is a great bang for buck kit. get a rc trac bar if you go 2" or more.

I installed a Carli 2.5” King Pintop leveling kit with their trackbar and sway bar and increased ride quality is insane. Carli isn’t cheap but neither are these trucks. Running 37x12.5x17s.

You’ll need to measure you own truck to get the right measurement for yourself. You also need to decide if you want a dead level truck or not. (See video below)


Personally, I only like 1” of leveling which leaves a little rake in the truck.

This is a 1” front lift on my truck

Yeah I did a very small spacer level and it turned out very good. The kit came with shock mount brackets do I didn’t need to upgrade shocks right away but the did make some noise.

I put an inexpensive 2.5" leveling kit and new adjustable track bar on my truck from Rough Country and now i hear a clunk when I hit a large bump. I suspect it's the shock extension brackets that came with the leveling kit. I may buy new longer shocks and pull off those brackets and see if the clunk goes away. (I guess you get what you pay for!)

I'd go with a Thuren 2 inch front level. That's what I did with the adjustable Thuren track bar and I am nothing but pleased.
