Overview:
The Fabtech 6-inch Basic Suspension Lift System with Stealth shocks is engineered for Ram 1500 owners who want to maintain a factory-like ride quality while upgrading to larger tires and wheels. Designed specifically for 2019 to 2021 Ram 1500 models, this lift kit provides a balanced combination of rugged off-road capability and everyday drivability. It relocates the factory suspension with heavy-duty bolt-on brackets, ensuring long-lasting durability and trouble-free performance.
Featuring Fabtech’s proven Independent Front Suspension (IFS) technology, the kit includes extended length ductile iron steering knuckles that preserve proper factory electronic stability control (ESC) functionality. The system raises the vehicle by 6 inches, allowing fitment of up to 37-inch tires on 20x9 wheels with minor trimming, without compromising the stock ride feel.
Key Features:
This lift kit is packed with advanced engineering and quality components to enhance your Ram 1500’s capability and appearance:
- 1/4" Thick Steel Lower Control Arm Crossmembers: Arched design maximizes ground clearance and includes four adjustable alignment cams for precise tuning.
- Extended Length Ductile Iron Steering Knuckles: Maintain near-stock track width and ensure full compatibility with factory ESC systems.
- Front Coilover Spacers: Built from thick wall tubing and 1/4" steel, these spacers retain the factory coilover shocks for a smooth, stock-like ride.
- Heavy Duty Front Differential Skid Plate: 1/4" thick steel plate protects the front differential from off-road hazards.
- Integrated Differential Mounts: Precisely reposition the front differential to maintain correct CV and driveshaft angles throughout suspension travel.
- Rear Steel Coil Spring Spacers: Utilize factory coil springs to preserve load carrying capacity and highway comfort.
- Rear Stealth Monotube Shocks: Provide improved damping and control over rough terrain.
- Heavy Duty Sway Bar Drop Brackets: Retain factory sway bar link ends while accommodating the lift.
- Tire and Wheel Compatibility: Supports up to 35/12.50R20 and 37/12.50R20 tires on 20x9 wheels with minor trimming.
Construction & Design:
Fabtech’s Basic Suspension Lift System is crafted from premium materials to ensure strength and longevity. The 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers are fully welded box designs, providing exceptional rigidity and resistance to off-road impacts. The extended steering knuckles are made from ductile iron, offering superior durability while maintaining factory steering geometry and electronic stability control integration.
The coilover spacers and rear coil spring spacers are engineered to work seamlessly with the factory suspension components, preserving ride quality and load capacity. The heavy-duty front differential skid plate guards critical drivetrain components against rocks and debris, making this lift kit ideal for both daily driving and moderate off-road use.
Installation & Fitment:
This lift kit is designed for straightforward installation using bolt-on brackets and components that relocate the factory suspension without cutting or welding. Minor trimming of the wheel wells may be required to accommodate larger tires. It is important to note that this kit is not compatible with factory air suspension, OEM 22-inch wheels, heavy-duty bearing options, thermal rear axle models, 2-piece rear driveshafts, or 2019 Ram 1500 Classic models. Aftermarket 20-inch wheels or larger are required for proper fitment.
Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper alignment and suspension geometry. The kit includes adjustable alignment cams to facilitate precise tuning after installation.
