Leveling kit
 
What size leveling kit do i need to level my 2wd 3500 out so it doesnt have such a slope as they come from the factory? What brands would you recommend?

I just ordered a dayton 1 1/2" kit for my 98 2wd dually.I will let you know how it turns out after i get and install them.I do know that if you go over 2 " you will need to get shocks but that would be a lift kit.

Daystar that is.:tttt:

i did a daystar 2" and i couldnt get the SOB to get in, was a realy pain in the a**. So i just lowered the rear to level it out

I finally got the kit and installed them.Took all day because i didnt have some certan wrenches but it wasnt too bad.Made a lot of differance.No slope.

Do you have some before and after pics? and the kit you got was the coil spring spacer kind correct?

i built my own leveling blocks for my 4x4 when i replaced the axle but if i had to do it again i would get some carrier springs and bilstien shocks thats the best way imo but leveling block work all right mine have lasted but i always over do stuff i bet u could drive a tank on the blocks i built with no prob anyway just my opinion on leveling kits good luck:c:

Bilstien 5100's on these trucks makes a night and day difference!!! I just did a 2" tgc's leveling kit and the bilstiens!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!

Nope, 4x4. I'm not sure if they make the bilstiens for the 2wd's or not. I'll check real quick

don't see the 5100's but they do have the yellow and blue ones. Not sure how much better those are compared to a rancho or something like that.

but changing the shocks alone wont level the truck out will it

oldduallyfart 01-31-2011 08:12 AM

No it will not.The spacers i used sit on top of the coil spring.I will try to get some pics.There is a youtube link on install of daystar kit.Get on youtube and type in daystar leveling kit for dodge 3500 in search column.
