Very nice lift and keeps the ride quality

Switched out from spacers and this is so nice. This lift puts the truck at a nice height and brings the ride quality back to, if not better than when it was new. The spacers were good for a little height, but they made the ride very stiff, this lift fixed that perfectly.

With the right tools, it’s easy

Item said it should take about 6 hours to do the install. I was able to do it in a little under 6 in my drive way. The fitment was spot on, and assembly was a breeze with the right tools. The only odd tools were a 21mm crow’s foot wrench annd an 15/16” impact socket. American trucks did a great “how too” video on YouTube for this kit.

Not bad

Install was fairly easy. Good instructions. I was a bit disappointed in the ride. I installed new tires with it and had an alignment done. Maybe reviews had my expectations too high. The sit is just a tad low on the back. I mean it is a leveling kit and maybe it is level, but it looks like it’s an inch low in the rear which kind of makes my eye twitch. Quality wise the parts are stout and well made. I don’t worry about it driving around. Overall it’s good but keep in mind it’s not a full lift and ride may not be what you expect.

Waisted time and money.

The kit I purchased was a 3 inch leveling kit for a 2017 ram 1500 four-wheel-drive. This kit made a ridiculous mess. It did fit on the truck, however, it was not functional. Had I tried to drive the truck after putting the kit on, I would’ve blown out my CV joints, as they were severely angled. The CV boot was hitting the spring on the strut. We thought the parts would settle into a better position as the hoist was lowered and the weight of the truck settled on the floor. The suspension only dropped a half of an inch as a truck was lowered to the ground. The amount of lift on the front, measured 5.25 inches instead of three. Had I completed the installation of the blocks in the rear, the front of the truck would have stood about 3 inches above rear. Scratching our heads, we checked the part numbers with the suggested parts, which were correct. We reevaluated the installation to make sure everything was assembled properly. No problems were found there, it was a ridiculously poor fit. After many hours of working on this mess, I decided to pull it all off, go up to an auto parts store and purchase stock suspension components. This leveling kit was returned to Amazon for a refund. You can see through the attached photos, some of the issues that I ran into. I know there are a lot of positive, satisfied comments, but this is what I ran into and I would recommend that people avoid it. Good luck with yours.

Great Quality

Everything in the kit seems very high quality. The ride is a little stiff, but that's expected for an 4x4 lift kit. Everything feels "tight" since the install-thats a good thing. It seems like it's going tk be very durable, but only time will tell. I highly recommend it. Install was easier than I expected, I did it all with 2 floor jacks, jack stands and almost all hand tools (ratchets, wrenches).

Very easy to install

Great product easy to install well worth the money. If you have noise after installation like I did in the rear, make sure you tighten down the shock bolts and the noise went away.

Great for the Money

I'm pleased with the look of the truck. It lifts the front 3 inches and the rear 1 inch to level it out. It gave the truck better ground clearance and I was able to run 34 inch tires. Seems like I could still clear 35s with the right wheel offset.The kit came with everything needed at a decent price. It doesn't seem to ride any rougher than factory, and I drive a lot on the interstate as well. I couldn't speak about the install, as I had a shop install it.Overall, great value for the money! 👍🏻

More complex than stated

It looks great but the spacers do need to go on the strut. You will need a strut press. I didn't use the spacers as I did not have my press anymore. I replaced the upper control arms. They were bad. I placed the rear spring extender cap on. The was wasy. Now I can't say anything about the shocks as my shocks would not come off due to minimal clearance on rear nut and rust. So I will be taking it to the shop. So basically I lifted about 2 inches and it leveled out the truck with the rear spring cap. I am satisfied as to what is looks like now. But I will be replacing the rear shocks and if I'm taking apart the strut I will order new and get 100% done. I will update pictures at a later date. Pictures attached are with half of lift and a older picture before headlights and rims replaced.
