Love it. Keep the mods and updates coming ! -
Ram 1500 ds new setup suggest
No…if you go with the 4-6” struts, you need the actual lift kit that drops the diff and lower a-arms etc. Yea, anything over 2.5-3” should have the actual drop kit imo. -
Ram 1500 ds new setup suggest
First off, the answer to that question is an opinion. To know what your opinion about it is, take these simple steps….get 2 jacks and jack the frame up 2” in the front and 1” in the rear and step back and look at it. -

Do people calibrate their speedometers right after getting bigger tires or have people just not calibrated right away?
Yea i understand just doing the calculations and figuring out how much percentage your speedo is off and go that route. I was just saying that the truck wont automatically do that and have a correct speedo. Shift points will also be off. -

No haaaaaaa, thats just to change the computer settings if you DO regear…which requires new differential gears. -

Getting the tire size calibrated will certainly help some, mainly by getting the shift points back into check. But you will still have a much more sluggish feel when going from the stock 32’s-33’s to a set of 37’s. A regear would help with that dramatically. -

3” Rear Coil Springs?
What style soacer? Poly, steel, upper, lower? Are they bolted in place? Ive been running steel spacers on the front of my power wagon for 100k miles and still never heard a peep from them. Could be other things making the noise…sway bar links, control arm bushings, even the e-brake. -
3” Rear Coil Springs?
Cant help you with spring recommendations. But figured i would ask…are you sure the springs/spacers are what is squeaking? -
Rear shocks on a lifted Ram
Need more info. Half ton, 3/4 ton? How much lift? Current setup use any shock extenders? -
What parts should I replace?
Its probably a zone 4/6” lift. If so, thats much better than any RC setup. Dont go downgrading lol. Check for worn components that might be making the clunking noise. Control arm bushing, sway bar bushings etc. Nice looking truck! Yes, wheel spacers would keep your tires from rubbing. Too much... -
Figuring out how much lift - Need help
