I've been lurking these forums for a little over a year now. Finally decided to join and introduce myself. I bought my Ram back in July of 2016. It was completely stock with the exception of aftermarket keyless entry system. I have done quite a bit to it in that time since. Anything you wanna know just ask

Very nice. What size tires are you running with the 3/5 drop and how is the ride quality overall?

Thank you. I am running a 285/40 tire, so far ride quality is pretty much the same as when I had the factory wheels and tires on. I just got the wheels and tires last week and put them on yesterday so my time with them is rather limited.

How's the ride quality with the 3/5 drop as compared to stock? I have a 2/4 spindle drop, so my ride quality is basically the same as a stock truck. Just curious how it is with the 3/5 on there. What drop kit did you go with for the 3/5? I've been thinking of going lower but I still use the truck as a truck and also want to maintain a decent ride quality overall.

Welcome to RamForum. You've got a nice, clean looking truck there.

I have a DJM lowering kit that used 3" control arms. Ride quality is pretty good on the highway, fairly close to stock. I live in a pretty bumpy neighborhood and that is where you can definitely tell the difference.
