Probably because the truck has a solid rear axle and not independent like the Vette.
I was talking about the front suspensions mostly.

But reguardless the rear on these trucks should articulate just as well as a double wishbone system in a straight line going over bumps in the road that effect both sides of the vehicle equally, which is what I'm complaining about

?

Now I'm a lil confused Matt is saying he ended up 2/4 with his gf kit and milt is also saying that. But David ram is saying you don't even see the 2/3 so I would love for a actual guy in here with a 2013+ 2wd 1500 quad cab regular 6ft 4 bed to tell me where they ended up with the GF 9863 kit

Overthinking

I'm not trying to be that guy overthinking this addition it's just I refuse to just do anything half arsed I want it done the right way one time. I'm all for building on the kit I choose with other additions like spohn bars, hellwig sway bars etc.etc. now Matt said in a few posts back that he has guys running the 963sp BT kit and none have cut there crossmember but BT finally responded to me saying if your 2013+ ram 1500 is a QC with 140.5 Wheel base and has a one piece driveshaft you have to notch the crossmember which I would figure in typical robot Manu way he would say that. Then at the other end how are the other company's offering the same 2/4 kit not having to cut the crossmember it all seems very suspect. I'm actually considering going with crown 1/3 coils and the spohn adjustable panhard bar and hellwig stab bar of course I want it lower but not at the expense of my warranty and such its not like I don't trust the notched crossmember as I've had two trucks with c-notched frames and I think they were stronger then the regular frame was. So I guess at this point I'm wanting my cake and to eat it to as I want to go low as I can go but without screwing up my warranty and or making myself uncomfortable with second guessing my decision on my choices thank sorry for all the babble I just really love to be educated
