Leveling kit... Thuren, KORE, or ???

[jwduke]

I'm really leaning towards the Thuren with some Bilstein shocks. Don Thuren's stuff for our Dodge trucks seems to be top notch. Any other thoughts ???

With your heavy RV, I would not use one at all. Front end leveling kits and towing heavy do not mix.

Either leveling product is going to be high quality, and the Bilsteins are 2nd to none, so personal preference and cost are your deciding factors. You will need to do something to the rear suspension height also (for towing) or your truck will now squat in the rear with the level kit on front. Most people use airbags of one stripe or another, for ease of adjustability.

I added 1 ton rear springs (The overloads from a 3500).

Do they effect drive-ability or ??? My towing is limited to weekend use. Probably will go to a 1 ton when doing it more in the future.

Still going to squat too much, because the overloads will not engage soon enough, unless you do something like this.

Yep,that and some 2" Thuren's would work well.

If KORE is still in business don't bother. Both my trucks had KORE, now have Carli/Thuren. You can't go wrong with either. If you haul heavy with min- packs or full leafs, look at Carli's long travel air bags. Best of both worlds.

I couldn't be happier with my Thuren parts

Ive been extremely happy with my Thuren stuff and know of a set of used Carli airbags, if your intrested send a pm to Jkosten on here, he is selling some.

How about the Lorenz kit that comes with Bilstein's as well?
