The spindle drop keeps all the factory suspension the same, the CVs just are at a steeper angle; ride quality is unchanged. The spring drop is a slightly stiffer ride and there are suspension alignment changes but there are no major issues.
SO,.....when you say that the rear spring drop brings suspension alignment changes, what do you mean exactly?
I have a 2016 Ram Sport 4X4, regular cab and am interested in the McGauphy's 2" rear drop springs, just to level off the truck some. I should be all set with just those correct? I don't need any other suspension modifications, would I?
Thanks!
There's no issues with a 2" rear level. You only start having issues at a 4" rear drop with the control arm alignment and length and at 6" you need to rethink the axle brackets.
I would look into the Ground Force 2" rear springs instead of Mcgaughys. The Mcgaughys were designed for 4 door trucks, so they only give 1" rear drop on the regular cab trucks.
Unfortunately we dont. I've just seen quite a few regular cab guys buy the McGaughys 2" springs and come back disappointed at only seeing a 1" drop. Ground Force makes both 2 door and 4 door specific 2" rear drop springs. They will get you a true 2" drop.
