Very cool mods to come! Are you gonna touch the suspension at all?


I really want to lower it, it sits higher than the pictures would lead you to believe. I'm just not sure how much lowering this thing would cost.

About $600 to lower 2"/4.5" (front back), that's for both 2wd and 4 wd. That's about as low 4wd can go for a decent price. That's the price of the kit of course, not to include poss labor and alignment. I wish I had your rims tho, Im growing less fond of my 17s lol

All regular cabs are rare compared to 4 door trucks but certainly not uncommon. Theres probably about a half dozen truck within a few miles of me that are almost identical to yours (most not in as good of shape as yours though..very nice!). Now a regular cab heavy duty with an 8.4" touchscreen....thats uncommon lol

I definitely like the wheels a lot, sounds weird... but I think my ram looks like a Baja style truck, if that makes since. Those general grabber at2's were freakin $270 a pop.

I think it would look amazing lowered. At least bring the back down a bit, Ground Force makes shackles that are less than $100. I put those on my 08 and it looked much better and also tightened up the rear end (mine seemed to bounce around a lot).

I like both lowered and lifted lol

I'd also love to have a truck like yours AND one like I have already.

Family wouldn't fit in the rc on the towing trips. But I'd love to have a 5 speed behind a HEMI in that thing driving to work.

Of course... that's how I lost my license for 5 years long ago, but THAT is another chapter in the book.

A five speed with some gears would bring the hemi to life, the stock transmission and gears are ok.... but I can tell they do not bring out the full potential of those 345 horses.

Ain't that the truth. I have 355 gears and I know this truck does its best when I ask it to, but dang it's a slug. I would love to lift it a bit and go prerunner style, but that's more money than lowering, and I like to go fast haha. I want to get those 20s, Get the mcgaughys 2/4.5 spindle drop, and some motor and gear upgrades.
