I leveled my ram and couldn't be happier

[@LukeEdward]

No. A sway bar does not have a counteracting affect on the opposite wheel. A sway bar ("anti-sway bar") will keep the sprung weight on the same level plane as the unsprung weight. Thus, whenever one side wheel raises up, the opposite side will have a downward pulling force to attempt to keep the body from rolling over. The way it's described here, whenever you turn, the truck will attempt to lean even further into the turn, listing the sprung weight to the outside of the turn. That ". . . downward force on the opposite wheel. . ." is exactly what you DO NOT want, and is the reason for the stiffness of the OEM bar. The OEM Anti-sway bar is made to safely operate at the extremes, i.e. heaviest diesel engine, with maximum payload, pulling the maximum trailer weight, with application of brakes, at maximum turn angle, at a DOT extrapolated algorithm for maximum speeds for turns. That's why it's "too stiff" for many people; they're not trying to perform an accident avoidance maneuver while pulling a 31,000lb gooseneck. Any alteration compromises the truck's ability to perform at it's extremes. That being said, heck yeah I agree that my RAM anti-sway bay is too stiff, too. Also, "death wobble" comes from improper caster and Akerman angle. Loose componentry and/or improperly dampened steering and/or bending caused by high stress on steering pieces exacerbates the issue, but it doesn't cause it.

[@booAHHHH]

I did the supreme suspensions 2.5” leveling kit on my 2011 Silverado. It came with front spacers, and rear blocks. I put new rear shocks on the rear when i did it, dropped my sway bar, and have had 0 issues with it. My truck rides as well if not better than when I bought it.

[@luckytheirishman]

I have a 3 inch spacer and all you need is a spacer for you cv joints and it will not effect your ride at all. 2 years later and still good.

[@franka8377]

Maybe I just got lucky... I installed one of those cheap $96 Daystar 2" spacers on the front to take the rake out had an alignment done and here it is 3 years and 33,000 miles later with no issues at all. My tires still look brand new and my truck still drives like nothing was ever done to it. I did it for appearance reasons and so I can slide under it easier for maintenance purposes. I'm sure if I went off roading with it I would have a different story to tell.

I wish I would have watched this before I 2.5” spacer leveled my ‘19 3500 ram. It’s primarily a work truck. A lot of towing and plow it in the winter. I want a solid kit, front and back. I was looking at carli but thought 2-3k, yeah I can afford it but I don’t need all that extra s tuff. But here, thinking about what your saying, I may just go ahead and remove this steel 2.5” front kit, and lean towards a kit that does front and back from carli or the like. Spent $80 on the kit and like $200 to install. But I’m not so sure this is ideal for my use cases. Can you weigh in Jay?

[@MegaPuppy11]

This was all explained to me when I went to level the truck .. luckily after talking to the owner of the shop he convinced me into the tuff country 3in lift. It is inexpensive roughly $300. Comes with 3in spacers for the front. 1in for the rear coils. But this kit comes with s drop pitman arm and track bar relocation bracket. Problems solved hopefully will more than likely post a video

[@chriscollison3136]

I don’t know bout you but my 06’ 3500 5.9l quad 4x4 came factory with 2 inch leveling spacers in the front! And to get rid of the wabble you need to upgrade to the t-track arm and the the y cause there is a ton of play in the pre 2009 y track bar setup along with the stabilizer so little bit more to it! The best you can afford is a great answer!

[@Tripleog-hy7xp]

ive got spacers, had them for 6 months, no problems, ride quality is the same too.

[@JayFlatOut]

+Gregg Turner best of luck with those 😂😂

[@Joshua_Bee]

The only thing that matters is HCAs... Spacer or coil if you don't get HCAs geometry is screwed....

[@omarramirez2335]

Explained some of the stuff incorrectly but the effort was made and that counts too, good job trying to explain as best you could not everyone can engineer and and play out in their mind how some things work

[@towboater781]

Adding a spacer to level a truck will not hurt your suspension at all. It will not stress out your suspension or make your truck less safe. The stuff this guy talks about is when you go past the simple leveling and begin lifting.

[@JayFlatOut]

Says the guy running a shitty $40 eBay spacer kit.

[@towboater781]

Jay Flat Out Nice for you to assume shit jackass. With every comment you make you look dumber. Keep it going Skippy. Lmao

[@TWIZTTID]

I agree, a 2 inch level up front should have no impact on anything. Now when you go past that is when the trouble starts. I went to 5" and had some issues. Then went to 7" and it was a nightmare trying to get back to a smooth ride.

[@mikep3008]

towboater781 lol my thoughts exactly. Look thru some of the other comments telling him he’s wrong as hell and explain why hes wrong and he doesn’t say a damn thing that’s why he pulled all that work he PAYED OTHER PEOPLE TO DO and probably put an up wards of $6,000.

[@popwall4297]

[@scottgilly1]

Man great post. But we must keep the truth out about this. Raising the front of your truck by spacer or coils has the exact same effect. Factory ride will NOT change using the spacers. The spring rate is the same no matter what. The very minor angle change in the control arms is no noticeable at all. Most kits come with shock extensions that match the spacer height. Your forward control arms being as long as they are. When you move the frame 2" up from the axle, the actual wheel base shortening is about 1/8". Hardly anything to look at or worry about. You are correct in the fact that the track bar which is non adjustable stock does move the axle over a minor amount. You do not just move the passenger wheel over on a solid axle truck. The track bar moves the entire frame over the axle and centers up the truck. This is causes the steering wheel to be offset a few degrees. This is corrected by adjusting the drag link about 1/2 - 3/4 turn of the adjusting link nut. Very easy to do. My leveling kit has giving no issues at all and tire wear is none. 65K from stock tires and 30K on new tires with no abnormal wear. A 2" leveling doe not in any way affect tire wear. Noting is done to the alignment of the wheels. As stated earlier the only alignment issue is the steering wheel offset.

[@jasonwb28]

scottgilly1 yep your right on. I’ve had several trucks with the spacers and never had my tires worn out or any problems that this guy claims. Jay does some great videos but his information on this one is wrong.

[@colehman72797]

Yeah the 2inch level kit in the front is not doing anything bad to the truck. I’m getting one for my Sierra. Which one would Y’all recommend? RC or what

[@theultimate181]

What you're saying at 4:11 is only right concerning solid front axle trucks ! Not right for control arms trucks....make a difference between the 2 sorts of suspension....

[@pressendforspanish]

Swaybars do not go opposite directions on each end. They take the load on the outside wheel in a turn and shares it with the inside wheel thus making the vehicle roll less in a turn. Has nothing to do with pot holes.

[@JayFlatOut]

Wrong.

[@erectusmaximus5958]

I have no clue who did the 2.5in level lift on my 16 2500 Cummins but it is under factory warranty thru Bill Luke Chrysler 120k powertrain 10 yr bumper to bumper.

Are you a professional mechanic?

[@Mark_conor]

What leveling kit are you talking about bro, if you are talking about the one that just bolts on top of the strut assembly I can’t image the ride changing much. So I’m guessing you are talking about the compressed ones witch to me should stiffen the ride up front making it harder but I think the ones that bolts on top should be fine for a level look. So be more specific on what you are talking about.

Never had any problems with my chevy.

[@doyleberger9312]

I don't think that's how a sway bar works!

[@JayFlatOut]

It is.

[@krisanddebra]

No. It's not. When one side takes a bump, it forces the other side up too. For example, when turning left in your Ram, it will cause the right side to "dip" (compressing the suspension). The antisway bar will cause the left to dip too, cause the entire front end to "glue to the road", reducing overall body roll. There isn't an "opposite" effect on the opposite side. I like your videos, but you've been wrong on this one in two videos. Not trying to pick, just trying to help you on this one. I'm in Vegas too, BTW - I appreciate your straight shooting about 4 wheel parts. That place sucks.

Amen for that I have 2011 Tacoma and I want t level my 3 int front and 2 ind the back will 285-70-17 kos2 yeah I need to save thank for being Oni

I leveled my 17’ Ram 3 months ago with the crappy spacers...I’ve not done an alignment yet and I’ve noticed when driving up to 120km/hr the front shakes..am i still in time to get the alignment or would i have to replace parts and eventually cost me a fortune ?

[@Miasdaddy7]

I like level not a big fan of the lifted setup they always ride super stiff. I'm doing a dirt king fabrications 4wd long travel kit.

[@JayFlatOut]

+Nathaniel Mather This Carli setup is actually pretty smooth bud.

This guy reminds me of a Summer's Eve.

[@Lifehackz137]

Sooo buy a 65 dollar spacer leveling kit gotcha ya 😋

[@richardbrown986]

Can you give me a parts list on the way you leveled your 2500. Going to do mine the right way . Thx

[@JohnnyRebKy]

Good info man. But after driving a truck with a 6 inch lift and 35x12.50 for 12 years as a daily driver I am excited to drive a stock truck!! It’s cool when your young dumb and full of you know what. Eventually eating ball joints and wearing out front end parts gets really old. Of course the big tires sucking your power away gets old to unless you do a 4.56 gear ratio change. At 34 I am overjoyed with my stock 4x4 Ford 5.0! Tons of power, good gas mileage, no big tires to drag around. It’s great!! Getting old isn’t so bad after all and now I know why the old guys have the fastest trucks haha :)

[@xCodzProject]

JohnnyRebKy your in a Ford tho

[@TWIZTTID]

Ha, I'm in the exact same boat as you. 34, drove a 7" lifted Dodge for years. Just got my new 17 and I am loving the ride difference. I would never do the big lift again, was fun when I was younger.

[@johnvenediktov5747]

great info thanks for the input

[@kutthroatbarbers9296]

Any advice for a BDS 2inch coil over (2.5 dsc) leveling lift kit is it good enough or will I need a traction bar and sway bar new to this any tips I will appreciate it

[@xc_4x4]

I've been running spacers on my 14' RAM 1500 for a year now and I'm hearing alot of subtle squeaks now. Kinda nervous on what ima find when I get my truck on a lift and start inspecting😓😓

[@JayFlatOut]

+Roy Reyes Its not too late to switch to coils

[@jahbiggs9244]

Con you tell me for the shocks springs and heavy duty sway bar a aprox price I’m keeping my factory 20” rimes

[@khyoon14]

Great information thanks.

[@stevenmunoz4697]

I know the suspension components are different but do they sell a kit like this for a ram 1500? Or has anybody put together a kit like this for a 1500 ? I know the ram 1500 doesn't have a front solid axle so idk if a 2.5 inch spacer is good or does it need all the extra components.

[@EatUpBoise]

This whole vid is assuming you have solid axles front and rear and not independent suspension that most all half tons have.

[@josephpulfrey4458]

tdicorato well he drives a Cummins......so, yeah.

[@josephpulfrey4458]

RENEGADE haha I didn’t even realize it said that, he’s clearly a total moron though, guess that’s why you don’t look to KZbin to learn this kind of shit.

[@samcastillejos1540]
