Up front it also includes diesel-specific progressive rate Pro-Ride coil springs, all four control arms plus mounting bracket, a forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, sway bar links, and NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 shocks.

Notes

• The Dodge Ram has 2 different rear axle diameters. Measure your rear axle and select the appropriate rear kit. Some 4 inch axle models with dual overloads will require UBT4068. Rear lift options will not fit dually applications.
• If driveline vibration occurs, order a transfer case drop kit. Note: the 122606 transfer case drop kit will only replace OE bracket 52121938AA. Additional front driveline modification may be required.
• 102009 rear brake lines will not fit 2012-2013 models.
• Exhaust modification will be required for the dual rear shock kit 122009. 2500 gas models will require modification to the front exhaust crossover pipe on the driver side for proper clearance when a transfer case indexing ring kit is installed.
