Note that on the Ram 2500 Rebel submodel, front lift is 0.5 inches rather than 2.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-shipping-note\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground. Lead times vary by part and some items are built to order, so please allow extra time. We email tracking as soon as your order ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTuned as a Complete Package\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component in this Stage 1 system (springs, track bar, and shocks) is developed and match-tuned together rather than sourced separately. That matters because spring rate and shock valving interact directly: a spring tuned for a diesel-weight front end paired with a shock calibrated to the same load produces consistent damping across the full stroke, on pavement and off. Buyers who have assembled lift kits from mixed brands often find that one component masks a problem in another; a factory-matched system eliminates that variable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAir-Ride Compatibility Preserved\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rear shocks in this system are designed specifically for Ram 2500 trucks with OEM rear air springs. ICON engineered the rear components to locate the airbags and associated hardware so they are not over-traveled or damaged at ride height. Factory air ride modes remain fully functional after installation. For buyers who want rear height adjustability beyond stock, the optional ICON 2-inch Air Ride Kit (Part #214212) allows end-user adjustment of rear ride height from stock to 2 inches over stock, and is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFront Axle Alignment and Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable front track bar uses PTFE-lined spherical bearings in place of the factory rubber joints. The spherical bearings eliminate bushing deflection, which reduces the vague steering feel that appears when factory bushings wear or flex under load. The adjustable length allows the front axle to be re-centered under the truck after the lift is set, a step that fixed track bars cannot perform and that matters for tire wear and straight-line tracking on a solid-axle truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-rate front coil springs:\u003c\/strong\u003e rated for diesel engine weight, matched to 2.0 Aluminum Series shock valving\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2.0 Aluminum Series shocks (front and rear):\u003c\/strong\u003e fully serviceable, four shocks included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable front track bar:\u003c\/strong\u003e PTFE-lined spherical bearings, re-centers front axle after lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFactory air ride modes preserved:\u003c\/strong\u003e rear components engineered around OEM air spring travel limits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo driveshaft modifications required\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eADAS recalibration required\u003c\/strong\u003e after installation (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2014–2026 Ram 2500 4WD, Diesel, with OEM rear air springs\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront Lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.5\" (most submodels); 0.5\" on Ram 2500 Rebel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRear Lift Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompatible with 0–2\" rear lift on factory rear air spring-equipped Ram 2500\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront Shocks\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.0 Aluminum Series, qty: 2, Part #216528\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRear Shocks\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.0 Aluminum Series Air Ride, qty: 2, Part #216532\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront Springs\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDual-rate coil spring kit, Part #214200\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront Track Bar\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAdjustable, PTFE-lined spherical bearings, Part #214214\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOEM Wheels and Tires\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompatible\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRecommended Aftermarket Wheels\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e17x8.5\" (5.25\" BS \/ 13mm offset); 18x9\" (5.50\" BS \/ 12mm offset); 20x9\" (5.50\" BS \/ 12mm offset)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRecommended Aftermarket Tires\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e35x12.50\" (larger tires may fit but require fender trimming)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eK212541A\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e84 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThis system suits 2014–2026 Ram 2500 4WD Diesel owners with factory rear air springs who want a 2.5-inch front lift, improved off-road ride quality, and retained factory air ride functionality, including those who tow regularly or run construction and dirt-road terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThis system does not fit Ram 2500 2WD models, gasoline-engine Ram 2500 trucks, or any Ram 2500 without factory rear air springs.
