2.5 Inch Leveling Kit with Adventure Series UCAs | 2006-2011 Ram 1500 4WD | Zone Offroad

Overview

Level your Ram 1500 the right way with Zone Offroad's 2.5-inch leveling kit. In addition to steel fabricated top-mounted strut spacers and preload spacers designed for 2.5 inches of lift, this kit addresses the limitations of the factory upper ball joint — which becomes maxed out with a leveling kit installed, leading to premature wear — by upgrading to Adventure Series upper control arms (UCAs). These fully boxed and welded UCAs offer superior strength and performance and use an indexed ball joint cup designed for increased droop travel. Differential relocation brackets are also included to correct CV operating angles.

Features

• Combination upper strut spacer and preload spacer to ensure proper lift height
• Upper strut spacer is pitched, offset, and rotated to ensure proper fitment and positioning with the factory strut
• Powder-coated steel upper strut spacers for long-lasting durability
• Fully welded, heavy-duty upper control arms that dwarf the factory arms
• CNC-machined UCA bushing and ball joint cups
• OE rubber bushings and greasable factory-style ball joints for quiet, reliable, and low-maintenance operation
• Improved UCA range of motion compared to stock arms
• Full 2-inch differential drop included to achieve proper CV angles at ride height and to eliminate CV lobing at full droop
• UCA ball joint position adjusted to keep arm in a neutral position with 2–3 inches of lift
• UCAs utilize replaceable ball joints — replacements are readily available from most auto parts stores
• Can be installed as a 2-inch or 2.5-inch kit
• Avoids ball joint binding issues commonly known to occur on these models with spacer-only kits that use the factory UCAs
• Detailed, easy-to-follow installation instructions included
• Limited Lifetime Warranty

Installation

• Estimated Time: 4–5 hours
• Difficulty: Moderate

Important Notes

• This kit allows clearance for 33–35 inch tires to be installed.
• UCAs Required: Do NOT install the spacer kit without the upper control arms. The factory upper ball joint will be extended past its operating range and vehicle damage may occur.
