Just got my lift installed yesterday on my 2015 EB screw 2wd, went with RC 6" lift, just got it all for looks no off-roading, have 35x12.5x20 trail grapplers on 20" fuel hostage -12 offset, will post pics today after work. My concern is my truck sits lower by 2" in the front and I really want to get it even with the rear by raising the front as opposed to lowering the rear, what are my options? My brother just went through this with his Ram 1500 and he wound up lowering the rear, I don't want to have to do that. I'm sure others have experienced his and I'm hoping your advice will help me out, thanks

Everyone recommends against adding a spacer on top of a spacer. Before I lowered the rear of my truck to make it sit level, I contemplated using a strut lift like the bilstien adjustables. That's the safer way to go vs adding another spacer.

Thanks for the response! So if I just did nothing but replaced my struts with something like the Bilstein 5100 adjustables, I'd be able to lift the front end up a couple inches? I'm abbot of a noob when it comes to lifted trucks and off road components so I apologize, I'm against stacking spacers as well and I've been leaning towards this option but before I spend a few hundred more dollars to buy these and have them installed I just want to be sure that they will in fact make a difference and give me some lift by installing them on my truck which already has the RC 6" lift

I'm not an expert but I can't see why it wouldn't work. It's basically the same as using them on a regular height truck. In my head, of course.

Your suspension/cv axle angles up front will be a little more "aggressive".

If you decide to lower the back instead. I used some 4" blocks and they got it pretty damn close.

I got Bilstein 5100's installed today I went 1.25" lift on them and I got right about an inch of lift in the front so I'm sitting pretty level now with the 5.5" RC rear block. Front is lower by about half an inch but looks level to the eye.

Is your rear 5.5" RC block tapered?

Michael Hungaski

I believe so, it looks like it has a bit of a slant to it if that's what you mean
