Kansas City's Ram Build Specialists — 1500, 2500 & 3500 Lift Kits, Wheels, Tires & Accessories
Ram Truck Customization in Kansas City
American Fusion Wheels is the Kansas City metro's go-to shop for Ram truck customization. Located in Shawnee, KS — about 15 minutes from downtown KC — we build Ram 1500s, 2500s, and 3500s for work, play, and everything in between. Whether you drive a brand-new DT-generation Ram 1500 with air suspension or a classic DS-body workhorse, we have the parts, experience, and equipment to transform your truck.
Ram Generations We Build
We work on every modern Ram platform. The DS generation (2009-2018) introduced the coil-spring rear suspension that set Ram apart from Ford and Chevy, and the DT generation (2019-present) refined it further with available four-corner air suspension, a 12-inch Uconnect screen, and the eTorque mild-hybrid system. We also build the Ram Classic body style that continued alongside the DT through 2024. From the base Tradesman to the luxury Limited and the off-road-focused Rebel, TRX, and Power Wagon — every trim level, every drivetrain, every cab configuration. Our technicians know the differences between these platforms inside and out.
Ram Lift Kits
We install Ram lift kits ranging from simple 2-inch leveling kits to aggressive 8-inch suspension lifts. For the Ram 1500, Rough Country, BDS, Fabtech, ReadyLIFT, and Zone all manufacture excellent kits. If your 1500 has the factory four-corner air suspension, we install kits specifically designed to work with the air system — BDS and Rough Country both offer solutions that retain full air ride functionality including ride height adjustment, auto-leveling, and entry/exit mode. For Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty trucks, we use BDS, Fabtech, Carli Suspension, and Zone kits engineered for the heavier front axles and higher payload ratings. Every lift kit installation at our Kansas City-area shop includes a full 4-wheel alignment at no extra charge.
Wheels & Tires for Ram Trucks
Pair your lift with the right custom wheels and tires. Ram trucks from 2019 onward use a 6x139.7mm bolt pattern (older models use 5x139.7mm), and we stock 20 to 24-inch wheels from Fuel, TIS, Hostile, American Force, Anthem, and Axe in offsets specifically calculated for Ram platforms. Proper backspacing is critical on Ram trucks — too much poke and your tires rub the fenders at full turn, too little and your truck looks stock. We get it right every time. After mounting, we perform road force balancing for the smoothest possible ride on Kansas City highways and back roads.
Hemi & Cummins Exhaust Systems
The 5.7L Hemi V8 is one of the best-sounding engines on the road, and a quality exhaust system makes it even better. We install cat-back and axle-back exhaust systems from Borla, Flowmaster, MBRP, and AFE. The Flowmaster Super 44 is our most popular choice for that deep, aggressive Hemi rumble without excessive drone. For the 6.4L Hemi in the 2500, Borla S-Type delivers a powerful exhaust note that matches the bigger engine. For the 6.7L Cummins diesel, we offer 4-inch and 5-inch turbo-back exhaust systems from MBRP, AFE, and Flo-Pro — all emissions-compliant. Whether you want a subtle tone improvement or a head-turning exhaust note, we have the right system for your Ram.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about ram truck customization kansas city at American Fusion Wheels.
How much does it cost to customize a Ram truck in Kansas City?
Ram truck customization at our Shawnee shop ranges from about $500 for a basic leveling kit to $15,000+ for a full build with a 6-inch lift, 35-inch tires, 22-inch wheels, exhaust, bumpers, and lighting. Most Kansas City Ram owners spend between $3,000 and $8,000 on their first round of modifications. A leveling kit with larger tires is the most popular starting point at around $1,500 to $2,500 installed. We offer financing with no-credit-check options on all Ram builds. Call 913-291-2027 for a detailed quote tailored to your Ram.
Can you lift a Ram 1500 with air suspension?
Yes. We install lift kits specifically engineered for Ram 1500 models equipped with the four-corner air suspension system. BDS and Rough Country both manufacture air suspension-compatible lift kits that work with the factory system rather than replacing it. These kits retain full air suspension functionality — ride height adjustment, auto-leveling, and entry/exit mode — while adding 2 to 4 inches of lift. We calibrate the system after installation so the truck rides and handles correctly. This is one of our most requested Ram services at our Kansas City-area shop.
What lift kits work on Ram 2500 and 3500 HD trucks?
Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty trucks require lift kits designed for their heavier front axles, coil spring front suspension (2014+), and higher payload ratings. We install HD-specific kits from BDS, Fabtech, Carli Suspension, and Zone Offroad ranging from 2 to 8 inches. Carli kits are especially popular for their longer-travel performance on Ram HDs. For 2013 and older trucks with the solid front axle, we have radius arm and 4-link options. Every HD lift includes a full alignment at no extra charge. We also address steering stabilizer upgrades for lifted Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks to eliminate death wobble.
What tires fit after a lift on my Ram truck?
Tire fitment depends on your lift height and wheel specs. With a leveling kit (2 inches), you can fit 33-inch tires comfortably. A 4-inch lift opens up 35-inch tires — the most popular size for lifted Ram 1500s. A 6-inch lift allows 37-inch tires with proper wheel offset. For Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks, the wider front axle gives more clearance, so 35s often fit with just a 2.5-inch lift. Popular tire choices include Toyo Open Country AT3 and MT, Nitto Ridge Grappler, BFGoodrich KO2, and Falken Wildpeak AT3W. We recommend road force balancing after installation for the smoothest ride. Call us at 913-291-2027 for exact fitment for your Ram.
What exhaust options are there for Hemi and Cummins Ram trucks?
For the 5.7L Hemi, we install cat-back and axle-back systems from Borla, Flowmaster, and MBRP — the Flowmaster Super 44 is our most popular choice for that aggressive Hemi rumble. For the 6.4L Hemi in the 2500, Borla S-Type and MBRP provide deeper, louder exhaust tones. For the 6.7L Cummins diesel, we offer 4-inch and 5-inch turbo-back exhaust systems from MBRP, AFE, and Flo-Pro. All diesel exhaust work is emissions-compliant. We can also add exhaust tips, resonator deletes, and muffler swaps for more modest sound changes. Stop by our Shawnee shop to hear exhaust samples.
Can you customize a Ram TRX?
Yes. The Ram TRX with its supercharged 6.2L Hellcat engine is one of the most exciting trucks on the road, and we offer a full range of modifications. Wheel and tire packages with 35-inch or 37-inch tires on 18 or 20-inch forged wheels, cat-back exhaust upgrades from Borla and Corsa, cold air intakes, bed accessories, front and rear bumper upgrades, rock slider installation, and cosmetic modifications like fender flares and lighting. We also install performance tuning for the supercharged engine. The TRX already has a factory lift, so most owners focus on wheels, tires, exhaust, and appearance rather than additional lift.
How long does a Ram truck build take?
Build time depends on the scope of work. A leveling kit installation takes about half a day. A full lift kit with wheels and tires is typically a 1 to 2 day job. A complete Ram build — lift, wheels, tires, exhaust, bumpers, lighting, and accessories — takes 3 to 5 days depending on parts availability and complexity. We schedule builds in advance so your Ram is not sitting idle. Many Kansas City-area customers drop their truck off in the morning and pick it up the next day for straightforward lift and wheel jobs.
Do you offer financing for Ram truck builds?
Yes. We offer financing with no-credit-check options on all Ram truck builds. Whether you are doing a $1,500 leveling kit or a $12,000 full build, you can break the cost into manageable payments. Apply in our Shawnee shop or call 913-291-2027 to get pre-qualified. Most Kansas City Ram owners use financing to do a more complete build upfront rather than spreading modifications over multiple visits.

Open in Google Maps →"Brought my 2021 Ram 1500 Rebel to American Fusion Wheels for a lift and tire upgrade. They installed a 4-inch BDS lift, 35-inch Toyo Open Country AT3s on 20-inch Fuel Vectors, and a Flowmaster Super 44 exhaust. Sounds incredible with the 5.7 Hemi. The air suspension works perfectly with the lift. Total was about $7,000 installed. Their shop in Shawnee is about 20 minutes from my place in Lee's Summit.
