I had all kinds of problems after putting coil spacers on my 09 2wd. I had to switch over to longer sway bar end links. The upper control arms really need to be changed also. I found a hack for the sway bar end links. Factory ones from a 4 wheel drive are the same fitment just longer. So that worked great. Before that the truck swayed so bad it was scary. Them 2 extra inches of lift was enough to max out the sway bar. A lot of people go with the hellwig sway bar but that’s not the actual fix. You don’t need it. It’s a waste of money.

Super job and with the right tools and quality parts!

Helped alot for figuring out how to get the spring back in and no lie hardest shit I've ever done and I do a lot of hard labor

Do you have to get an alignment after this

Good job 👏 came out real 👍…Thinking about doing mine soon!!

What size tires are you running?

Ratchet strap! 🤘🏻 I use that when doing the rear lower tubular control arms ( trailing arms is old school term)

Yea you don’t need it. The coil spring falls right out when you lower the lower control arm with a jack.

You can install shock extenders.

So I was thinking about putting a 2.5 spacer for my ram, but should I put an after market shock or does the stock shock still work well?

hey man, after months driving the truck like this, have you noticed any bumps between the UCAs and the spring towers while flexing because of a pot hole or speed bump? I want to do exactly the same but I've read about this issue and I live in a country with fucked up streets and speed bumps everywhere, also, do you know approximately the weight of the spacers? I'm shipping by plane to the other side of the world and every gram matters haha, thanks!

Would you recommend this kit or say go to a true 2” lift spring replacement as a better option?

@five7garage826

2 жыл бұрын

Oh definitely a 2 inch lift kit with springs and control arm replacement option will be a better, because they are designed with control arms with a greater ball joint pitch and potentially same comfort versus compressing the stock springs making it for a harder ride. The only drawback is that they cost more.

You don’t need new UCAs. Just get adjustable ball joints. To get your camber right when you do the alignment.

I have a question and I would appreciate someone answering it; I already installed a 3-inch kit on my truck but I want to raise it another 3 inches, is it possible that I can put one kit on top of another?

@five7garage826

2 жыл бұрын

It is not possible. I will assume you have already installed some sort of leveling kit that installs on your coils or struts. As is your control arms are almost maxed out at their downward position, that’s bad for your ball joints and CV axles. If you want to go taller that’s when you will need to relocate/drop your control arms and that’s when lower cross members are added and spindles are replaced and drop steering links are put on. You will have to replace the kits if you want to go taller, BUT their is another option if you just want to get another 1-2 maybe even 3 inches without replacing any suspension components and that is body lifts. Look into them. Hope that helps 👍

And this guy is doing this all wrong. When you lower the lower control arm that coil spring just falls right out of there. I learned that the hard way. When you go to put the coil back in with the spacer you just hold it in place and jack up the lower control arm.

I was wanting to do the same thing but what you think would be better a 2" leveling kit or a 3" suspension lift

@five7garage826

3 жыл бұрын

It really depends on what your trying to achieve, the bigger the lift the bigger the tires you can put on. The majority of 3+ inch lift will come with a 1 inch spring spacer you will have to install in the rear.

You sound very knowledgeable and I am looking for guidance. I recently purchased my first truck so I am new to the truck world and its language. I am looking for a leveling kit but I cannot find the components anywhere, I am open to a small body kit but I am also having trouble finding what I need. My local lift kit shop suggests using components for a 2016 model and it just doesn't sound right. I have a 2022 F350 dually 4x2 7.3L gas, what can I do?

@five7garage826

Let me start off by saying congratulations on your new truck. You just skipped the little and jumped straight to the big leagues 🤙. I haven’t dealt with many Fords but I do agree with what the shop said. Many makes do use previous generation suspension components and body parts on new models, all they do is update front ends, rear ends and interior design. But they utilize the exact mounting location because they keep the exact dimensions underneath to a certain extent, some backside components do change as well for example a radiator/core support. That’s why front end swaps are pretty common. Hope that helped a little and kind of points you the right direction 👍
