About this part
3-Inch Lift Kit, fitment-checked
A 3-inch lift kit for 2012-2018 Ram 1500 4WD and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD, built around forged aluminum upper control arms with POM ball joints already pressed in. It does not fit the 3.6L Pentastar V6, models with 4-Corner air suspension, or Warlock models that leave the factory with a 1-inch lift.
This 3-inch lift kit for the 2012-2018 Ram 1500 4WD and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic 4WD bolts on without cutting or drilling, and it can be returned to stock later if you sell the truck. The replacement struts rule out the 3.6L Pentastar V6, 4-Corner air-suspension trucks, and Warlock models. Trucks keeping factory wheels should stay at 11.5 inches of tire width or less; aggressive sidewalls may want a 0.25 wheel spacer, SKU 1065. Shock and strut choices include N3 and M1 monotubes. A downloadable installation guide is available.
