Smokin' truck man!!
All rightly thenHey guys,
Been pouring throu the pictures, and wanted to see what your thoughts are on leveling a '15 2500 MC. I am between the HBS or the Maxtrac level lift. Trying not to change the factory ride, shocks, etc so anyone prefer one level kit to another. And is the drop trackbar and pitman required. Thanks.
If you don't want to change the factory ride then a spacer kit is not the option to go with. They will most certainly make your ride harsher than stock. You'll be much better off going with a progressive rate coil spring level instead. Carli, Thuren, Kore, or TGC would all be options to look at depending on your budget. You will also want to replace the shocks with longer ones meant for a leveled truck or the ride will suffer. To finish it all off you will want an adjustable track bar to recenter the front diff and help prevent death wobble issues. I'd recommend BDS or BD Diesel's. No need for a drop pitman arm in this application.Hey guys,

I don't think anyone makes a leveling spring for 2014 and up with a Hemi. That's when the setup changed. I know for sure Thuren doesn't, I've emailed them and got a reply back. They eventually plan on making something, but don't at this time.... ?If you don't want to change the factory ride then a spacer kit is not the option to go with.

Ahh good catch. I always assume Cummins for the 2500/3500 trucks. Forgot that there's a number of guys running the 6.4L now.I don't think anyone makes a leveling spring for 2014 and up with a Hemi.

Yeah, I'm one and there isn't anything out there yet. If I want spacers there is, but I want a spring level. I'll just keep waiting, I'm sure something will eventually be available.Ahh good catch.

Nice looking truckHere's my 2015 2500 Laramie with a 5" Rough Country Lift, 962 Motomeqal 20 x 12.5 Wheels and 37" Trail Grapplers. Any of you guys recommend a different shock? The ones that are on this are the Rough country that comes with the kit. Would Ranchos or Bilstiens be a better replacement?[/URL[URL=http://s1274.photobucket.com/user/tvanleeuwen/media/IMG_1821_zpsrkt8lnco.jpg.html]

I'd recommend Fox or Bilsteins for replacement shocks. That will definitely be an improvement over the Rough Country ones as they're just a generic gas charged shock.Here's my 2015 2500 Laramie with a 5" Rough Country Lift, 962 Motomeqal 20 x 12.5 Wheels and 37" Trail Grapplers.

Just got my 2500 Hemi, and have been looking into this for a while. Carli emailed me today with this, so I suppose that's good news!Yeah, I'm one and there isn't anything out there yet.
