I lifted and leveled my 2004 Dodge RAM 1500 4x4 with a Wulf 3" front and 1" rear leveling lift kit — adjustable torsion keys up front, 1" blocks and U-bolts in the back, and new Wulf Stealth Nitro shocks at all four corners.
This is the complete step-by-step install, every bolt from start to finish, including the parts found here:
Wulf Suspension Kit: https://geni.us/Wulf1500
CAM Bolts for the Upper Control Arms: https://geni.us/RAM1500CAM
I mention this in the video, but the front ended up being 25 3/8 in the front, and 26 in the rear.
The kit fits 2002–2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 models. Plan on an alignment afterward — changing torsion key height changes your front-end geometry.
