We fit a 2-inch rear puck leveling kit on a Ram 1500's rear springs — a simple spacer that lifts the back end to correct a saggy or loaded rear and even out the stance. A small, inexpensive fix with a real effect on how the truck sits and carries weight.
This Ram 1500 came through Juggernaut USA in Wheat Ridge (Denver), CO for a rear puck level. Not every truck needs the front raised — some sit low in the back, especially if they carry weight or tow. A rear puck (a spacer above the spring) lifts the rear the couple of inches it takes to level the truck out and restore ride height.

What a rear puck kit does
A puck is a spacer that sits on top of the rear coil spring, raising the back of the truck without swapping springs. On a Ram that sits low in the rear — from age, sag, or the weight it carries — 2 inches of rear puck brings the stance back to level and gives back the ride height it lost. It is one of the simplest suspension fixes there is.
When to level the rear instead of the front
Most leveling raises the front to match the rear. But if a truck already sits nose-high or has a sagging rear, raising the back is the right call — it levels the stance and helps the truck carry a load without squatting. Which end to lift depends on how the truck sits, and that is worth checking before you buy parts.
Common questions on this build
What is a puck leveling kit?
A puck is a spacer that sits on the spring to raise ride height without replacing the spring. It is a simple, affordable way to gain a couple of inches and level the stance.
Should I level the front or the rear?
It depends on how your truck sits. Most level the front to match the rear; a truck that sags in back is a candidate for a rear puck instead. We will look at your stance and tell you which.
Can you level my Ram?
Yes — front or rear leveling, lifts, and wheels and tires. We do it in-house.
