Level Your RAM 2500 on a Budget

The Starting Point

Every 2025 RAM 2500 rolls off the lot with the same handicap — a heavy front rake and lack-luster ride. The solution doesn’t always require a full catalog of parts and 2nd mortgage, but the right combination of parts is crucial. In this video, we outline how we adhere to a $3,500 budget to accomplish our desired aesthetic and ride quality goals; this is less than you’ll spend on the wheels and tires you’ll install to complement the build!

BUILD & PRICING:

At the heart of the upgrade is our 2.5″ Leveling Kit with Carli Spec 2.0 IFP Shocks ($1,331). This levels the stance and completely transforms ride quality on-road, and in light-off-highway duty. To complement this leveling system, we’ve curated options offering the most value for the money you’re spending:

Heavy-Duty Adjustable Track Bar ($543)
Centers the front axle while optimizing steering precision.

High-Mount Steering Stabilizer ($555)
Compliments the factory stabilizer, providing budget-friendly “dual” stabilization, to manage the added load of the larger wheels and tires.

Front Differential Guard ($237)
Cheap Insurance for the front-diff.

 

THE PAYOFF

The resulting truck achieves the “Stock +”, leveled aesthetic, while vastly improving ride and handling. Best yet, it remains fully upgradable via upgraded shock packages, stabilizers, and fabricated parts as this system uses the same base components as our high-end systems. This is “Video 1” in a multi-part series in which we’ll use our 2025 Ram 2500 to walk you through several stages of suspension, upgrading the way our customers do! Stay tuned; we have a lot more in store for this Ram!
