Thread: Lift kit for 2004 Dodge CTD

  1. #1

    Does anybody have an experience with lift kits for Dodges? We have a 2004 Cummins 3/4 ton, 4x4 that I'm thinking of putting a 4" lift on. We can't go any bigger or it won't fit in the garage.
    If anybody has any names, kits, products, tires, wheels, shocks, whatever, could you please share?
    Pics would be cool too if anybody has them.
    Thanks in advance.

    Here is our 2004 CTD. I went with the ProComp 3" kit in the fron and the back is stock. The kit comes with the MX6 Adjustable shocks. The tires are FC II 325\60\18 (33"x13.5 wide) the wheels are 18X9 with 5.75 BS. You could get away with 6" BS with a 11.5 maybe 12" wide tire. i went with 33" tires for a few reasons, no gear changes, don't need a ladder to get in, off road capabilities, less wear on the drive train. Hope this helps

    Can't go wrong with a Fabtech kit.

    Here’s a pic of mine: it is a combination of Lorenz, Thuren Fab, & some custom parts. The wheels are 17 X 8.5 with a 4.5 bs Weld Sand Storms with a Toyo Open Country A/T 325/70R17.

    If you have the money I would take a look at the Kelderman Lifts. They ride better, and you can go from 4" lift to 12" lift with the switch of a button. Just have a compressor onboard. It will handle the offroad just as well as those other kits do, actually even better. Unless you get custom stuff done most of those other mass produced kits are kinda cheesy. Be carefull on the hieght you lift a dodge though because you may spend your time taking in and out the front drive shaft. Dodges arent like the Ford and Chevy where once its out of 4wheel it will have a freespin bearing. They keep spinning and will evenually wear the joints down. I had a 10" on my previous dodge and would keep the front drive undaer the back seat and put it in when I would need 4wd (mostly in glamis)

    Hey UNION -- If you dont mind me asking, how much did you pay for the new one??? I just blew my motor on my 04 CTD and am going to get rid of it. Want to get one of the 4wd, ctd mega cabs. Im sure Daryl probably told you about the problems I had the last time with Power Dodge Ontario!

    Thanks guys, keep them coming.
    The most I would ever use it offroad would be in about 1" of powdery dust where my wife brings her horses to do the gymkhana stuff! Nothing major in the offroad department, it's mostly for looks and the fact that I'm bored and want to play with something.
    Great pics and links.
