CST 2002-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 6.5" Lift # CSK-D23-1-6

This CST Performance Suspension 6.5" lift system is designed for use with all 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 model year 2wd Dodge Ram 1500 trucks. If you own a 2002-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd and are in the market for a 6.5" suspension lift you need to take a good look at this kit. The heart of this lift is the CST Cast Iron 4" Lift Spindle that provides 4" inches of lift and an additional 4" inches of ground clearance. CST also includes a pair of 2.5" lift Urethane Coil Spring Spacers that when combined with CST 4" lift spindle provide a full 6.5" inches of front suspension lift.

Ordering Information:
This CST 6.5" suspension lift kit includes a pair of CST 4" Lift Spindles, a pair of CST 2.5" Lift Urethane Coil Spring Spacers and a Rear 4" Block and Extended Length U-Bolt Kit. As an option we also offer a 6.00" and 7.00" front lift height. We've found the 6.5" Front Lift and 4" Rear lift is the ideal combination. If however you want more or less front or rear lift we can offer other options. Due to vehicle assembly variances its impossible for us to say whether or not your truck will require a 3" or 4" rear block to sit level. In most cases the 4" Lift Rear Block Kit will level the Ram 1500's when a 6.5" front lift is installed. We also offer a 3" Rear Lift Block for customers that want a slightly higher FRONT stance. We suggest you measure and eyeball the difference between front and rear height (on level ground) and use that to help select the correct Rear Lift Block Kit for your truck. Some customers ask why is the rear only lifted 4 inches when the front is lifted 6.5 inches? Simple, the Dodge Ram 1500 2wd Trucks come from the factory with the front end MUCH lower than the rear and lifting the front suspension more than the rear will help level the truck.

Tire & Wheel Info:
This lift is not designed for use with stock 17" wheels. The CST 6.5" Lift Kit is designed to run up to a 35" or metric equivalent diameter tire when mounted on an 8" to 9" wide wheel. If running 17" diameter wheels the back space should not exceed 5.00" inches! When running larger diameter wheels the back space tolerance does allow for wheels with more than 5.00" inches of back space to be used. Factory 20" wheels can be used but only if the tire width is no wider than a 305 Series or 12.00" inches. That means a 315 or 12.50 wide tire will NOT work with the Factory 20" wheel unless a wheel spacer is installed.

Please read this!
Due to the design of the 2002-2005 Ram 1500 2wd Suspension the use of the correct length front shock is very important. Using a shock absorber with the correct extended length will prevent the aluminum upper control arm from knocking against the top of the steel frame rail. The front shock absorber acts as a suspension limiter and running a front shock that is considerably longer in the extended length can cause premature upper control arm ball-joint wear. We offer a number of different front and rear shock absorber options for use with this lift. Front shocks are optional and rear shocks will be required.
