What's included

• Driver-side knuckle — precision-engineered geometry correction for proper caster and ride angle.
• Passenger-side knuckle — matched pair to maintain balanced front-end geometry.
• Crossmember box kit — laser-cut structural support with drop brackets for clean installation and driveline preservation.
• 6-inch lift box — complete front suspension envelope designed for your RAM model year.
• 6-inch strut kit box — application-specific damping and spring rates.
• Vertex 2.5 adjustable front shocks (pair) — nitrogen-charged reservoir design for responsive handling across on-road and off-road use.
• Vertex 2.5 rear shocks (pair) — engineered for 5.5–7.5 inch travel range to complement your new lift height.
• 6-inch coil springs — dual-rate rear springs tailored for load support, handling, and comfort on varied terrain.

Important notes

• Engine fitment: Does NOT fit RAM 1500 models equipped with the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine due to motor weight variances affecting strut geometry.
• Air suspension: Does NOT fit vehicles with 4-corner air suspension (standard on Rebel and Limited models).
• Special editions: Does NOT fit Warlock models, which come equipped with a factory 1-inch lift.
• Driveline: NOT recommended for AWD models — pinion angle changes cause drivetrain vibrations.
• Wheel requirement: Requires 20-inch or larger wheels; does NOT fit 18-inch or smaller wheels.
• Tire clearance: Supports tires up to 37 inches; 35–37 inch range recommended for optimized appearance and performance.
