HUGE SALE PRICE! Good until March 1, 2012 - Save $200.00 off the regular $889.95 price! Available for new style 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 model year 2wd Dodge Ram 1500 only! The CST 4" kit components can now be purchased separately. The CST CSS-D1-1 4" lift spindles have been on the market for quite a few years now and they are proven winners. CST Performance Suspension engineers have been designing and tweaking their kit during that time and have without a doubt created the finest 4" lift kit currently available for the 2002-2005 2wd Dodge Ram 1500 trucks. The heart of this kit is the CST 4" lift spindles. These 4" lift spindles are made by hand from 1018 sheet steel and will lift the vehicle an honest 4 inches in the front and maintain the smooth stock ride! The CST spindles are MUCH stronger than stock and also increase ground clearance under the front crossmember by a full four inches. These spindles provide clearance for a larger than stock tire and give your 2wd Ram more ground clearance than most lifted Ram 1500 4x4s! If 4" inches of lift is not enough, you can easily add a 1", 2" or 3" Daystar urethane coil spring spacer to achieve between 5" and 7" of total lift. These kits have been installed, tested, and have successfully held an alignment with no installation or alignment issues typically found in some other lesser quality kits now on the market. Customers are also pleasantly surprised when they learn the truck rides as nice as it looks! Ordering Information To purchase a complete kit you must select from a number of options. The basic 4" kit requires the CST CSS-D1-1 lift spindles and a 1" or 1.5" rear lift block kit to help level the truck. Shocks are NOT required with this combination. If you want to lift the front of your Ram 5 inches to 7 inches over stock you will need to purchase a 1", 2" or 3" urethane spring spacer AND a 2", 3" or 4" rear lift block kit, and at minimum, rear shock absorbers. Please note that leveling the new Dodge Ram 1500 can vary between truck to truck. Selecting the correct front lift height and rear lift block kit is important if you want to level your vehicle. PerformanceLifts.com suggests you measure the difference in height between the front and rear when the truck is parked on level ground. Using the difference in height you can select a rear block kit that best provides the stance you want. For example... if your stock truck is 3 inches lower in the front than the rear, a 4" front lift would require a 1" rear block lift to make the truck appear level. Tire & Wheel Info: THIS KIT WILL NOT WORK WITH STOCK WHEELS AND WIDER THAN STOCK TIRES. WITH A 4" AND 5" LIFT YOU CAN CLEAR A 33" TO 34" DIAMETER TIRE, THE 6" AND 7" KIT WILL CLEAR UP TO A 35" OR 315/70/17 TIRE. ALL KITS REQUIRE A TIRE MOUNTED ON AN 8" TO 9" WIDE WHEEL WITH BACK SPACE NOT TO EXCEED 5.00 INCHES! BILLET WHEEL SPACERS ARE AVAILABLE ($135*) FOR THOSE THAT WANT TO RETAIN THEIR STOCK WHEELS FOR USE WITH THIS CST LIFT. Please read this! - Dodge engineers have designed the front suspension on this vehicle so that the front shock absorber is the only thing that limits the suspension travel. For this reason, stock length front replacement shocks are required when installing this lift. Using a longer than stock front shock absorber will allow the front suspension to over-extend and this can cause the upper control arm to bang on the top of the frame rail. Also, over-extending the front suspension will quickly lead to upper ball-joint wear and eventually cause ball-joint failure. For these reasons, a stock length replacement shock is recommended. Again, STOCK LENGTH REPLACEMENT shocks must be used on the 2002-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd truck to prevent upper control arm and ball-joint damage! The rear shocks used with this lift are longer than stock and are designed to work with the rear lift block kit you select. The Rancho shocks bolt right on with no additional modifications required to install. This kit will not fit 2500 or 3500 series Ram trucks!
