Anyone with Superlift Leveling Springs?
Anyone with Superlift Leveling Springs?
I just ordered a set of Superlift leveling springs in hopes they'll level out my truck. Does anyone have any experience with this brand of springs?
I tried to get the Kore brand of springs, but they no longer sell the springs individually. You have to buy their whole package.
I currently have a set of steel leveling spaces, but they don't seem to level the truck - the front is still down compared to the back. I'm about to say bye-bye to the spacers!
My dad has an '03 2500 4-door HEMI and bought the Kore springs back when you could get them seperately and his truck sits perfect and rides great. I'm hoping the Superlift springs do the same for my truck.
By the way, Superlift makes engine-specific springs for our trucks. One p/n for the gas engine and one p/n for the diesel engine since they weigh different.
If no one has any experience with these leveling springs, I guess I'll have to let ya'll know how she goes!!!

You might try Desert Racing Concepts(DRC). I just checked and they still show the KORE leveling kit on their website.

Thanks, but I've already tried that approach. In fact, I called both of the Cali dealers Kore recommends on their web site. Both dealers said the same thing and wouldn't sell me just the springs alone.
I went to my local 4wheelparts store this afternoon and ordered the Superlift springs. I pick them up tomorrow. They were about $50 cheaper than when Kore was selling their springs individually. I hope they're just as good or better!

I totally agree. They've worked wonders on my dads truck as compared to stock and that's why I was wanting them. Kore told me they won't sell them as a seperate item anymore because people would get different shock configurations which could cause the truck to respond differently than what Kore advertises.
To me, that's a given. But if they didn't wanna make $300 bucks and sell me some springs, that's their choice.
I'd still be interested in hearing if anyone out there has installed these Superlift springs and how they're liking them so far.........anyone? Am I the lab rat?

I Have a Set Of Kore DDD-410 Springs for sale. They lift the front approx.2.5-3.5" depending on 6' or 8' bed and engine. tomattrucks@aol.com
I would think you made the right choice with the SL springs, as any company turning out lifts, and specifying diesel specific, as opposed to just 1 generic lift for 1500-3500, is on top of their product. I doubt you need to adjust the pitman arm, but will need a slight adjustment on the track bar to keep you axle's aligned, what do they supply for this?

I'm not sure about the adjustment on the track bar?? My truck is currently running the steel leveling spacers and the only thing I had done was an alignment. The same holds with my dads truck, which has the Kore springs - no track bar adjustment on either truck. Both trucks handle great.
Alright, the springs from Superlift came in and so far they look just like the Kore springs - same thickness, height and same number of coils. Right now, I'm more impressed with the Superlift springs - they came with instructions and a set of rubber stops to replace the factory stops!
The next step is to have them installed and that step should happen by next weekend! I'll write in to let you guys know it all goes.

I haven't gotten them on yet as I'll have to wait until next friday when it's my day off.
I'm hoping yours (el jefe) still has a slight rake due to your Ranch Hand bumpers. I don't think Superlift is like Kore and has springs made for the Cummins with aftermarket bumpers. I think Superlift just specifies between the gas and diesel engines. I may be wrong though.
Heck, I figure if I still have a rake, I've got my spacers I can put on top of the Superlift springs!
I see so many trucks (2500 diesels) that look totally stock and really level. They all can't have leveling kits!
And didn't I read a post in here where Dodge is sending out letters about the factory coil springs and replacing them because they're so soft or something? Is this true? I'd like to see that letter or better yet, get one myself!

Well, I just had the Superlift springs installed and the truck aligned!! I drove into work this morning and the truck rode sweet! The springs definitely did a better job at leveling out the front compared to the spacers I had before. The truck feels more responsive and or some reason, the steering feels lighter.
I would definitely recommend a set a leveling springs over a set of spacers.

Glad your happy with them. I'm happy with mine, I just didn't think it would sit much different than the spacers, because my bro has spacers and our trucks sit the same height. The bumper could bring mine down a tad I suppose. I had 1500lbs of corn in the bed the other weekend and when it would have sat about level with the stock springs it squated really bad with the superlifts. Looks kinda funny.
