My other truck is a ram 1500 and they have a very pronounced rake. People get so obsessed with leveling them and pay no attention to the body lines on them. They look silly when truely leveled and as soon as you toss a case of beer in the back you are nose high.

The biggest concern with these levelling kits is they increase CV angle and wear.

If Bilstein makes a leveling shock I might be interested. Have them in my Ram and it is a nice set up.
There's a whole lot of stuff on this forum re: "looks" when they don't pay any attention to screwing up what the engineers have spent many hours getting right... methinks all of this just increases wear, voids the warranty, and in the case of hybrids might just ruin the best thing about them - the mileage.

Be curious to see if there is a difference between the hybrid and Eco. Seems like they would logically have the same setup on FWD models at least, but I am just speculating.

Ordered last night. If my truck looks dumb 1 day out of the year towing I'll take that choice every time. The rake has bothered me from day one. Now to wait for an air ride system that lets me drop it and then lift when it snows. There's one on the FB Modded maverick page that has done this already. :love:

I think the 4WP kit is the best middle ground of all kits available so far. It’s 1” in the front and .75” in the rear.

What's a reasonable price for a shop to install this?

We would install it for $479.95 plus tax. That’s parts, labor, and alignment.

Thanks for the information!

Would an alignment only be needed for the front? Or would it effect the back as well?
