    Putting truck back to stock

    Hey guys, It has been a long time since I have been on the forums. I am putting my truck back to stock in the next couple weeks. Just a heads up that I’ll be selling all the parts of my lowering kit. Reason why I am putting truck back to stock is I really need a crew cab. I think...

    CS 1/2 springs with stock control arms?

    Hey guys, I am sure some of you have seen my post in regards to my belltech 2/4 drop and the issues I have been having. I have ordered the crown suspension 1/2 drop springs. At this point I do not want to hassle with the Spohn arms unless I have to. I got them originally due to the...

    If you have belttech 2/4- Post your rear bump stops

    Hey guys, I was seeing if anyone out there that has the Belltech 2/4 (without any air bags lifts) could post a picture of 1. The rear coils sitting on the axle perch. 2. The bumpstop (ideally capture an angle where you can see the amount of space between the bump stop and the axle...

    Front and Rear stock spring rates??

    Does anyone know the spring rates for stock front and rear springs? I tried searching and googling and could not find anything. I am assuming the 2014 springs are the same as the 2016. I am going to purchase crown suspension coils (still deciding whether to do a 2/2 or a 2/3) and I want...

    Possibly selling my Belltech 2/4" drop springs

    I am considering getting the crown suspension 2/3" drop. From what I have read the springs are stiffer. So if I do in fact get them I will sell my belltech springs. They are the 2" front drop springs and the 4" rear drop springs. They are brand new. Been on the truck for about 5 days.... Haha.

    Lowering my truck today. Need help.

    Hello all, So I am at my buddies and we are doing the belltech lowering kit. We already ran into our first snag. The bolt where the rear shock mounts at the upper mounting bracket. It is extremely hard to get a wrench or socket inside due to placement and frame interference. We are at...

    Hello all, I have a 2016 Ram 1500 with about 9.5k miles on it. I just changed my trucks oil this past weekend. (Mileage was around 9k- this was the trucks 2nd oil change). The dealership had performed the 1st oil change around 5k miles. I put in Penzoil Platinum Full synthetic...

    Spohn Bars Install - Pinion angle

    So I am going to be installing all my suspension components this weekend (Belltech 2/4, BT rear shocks, rear sway bar, pan hard, spohn upper and lowers). It is my understanding that you need to remove the driveshaft to get an accurate read on the pinion angle with an angle finder? Is this...

    No cams for 5.7L that have lots of lope?

    Hello all, I was doing some searching through the threads and from what it seems like there is not a cam available for the 14' and up Ram 1500's that are very lopey at idle. It seems every LSx motor I hear that is cammed is very lopey. IMO the cammed LSx motors sound sooo good (IMO...

    Good suspension shop in Houston

    Hello all, Just seeing if anyone knows of a good suspension shop in Houston. I was going to install my drop kit, control arms, etc. myself at my buddies place but it looks like that may not happen. Ideally I'd have a shop that has done an install of these parts before in a Ram. At...

    How many miles do you drive per year?

    I drive more than the average person. My last truck was 2 years old and had 60k miles. IIRC the average american driver does around 12-15k per year. So if that is correct I am roughly doubling it. My new Ram 1500 sport RCSB has about 5k miles now and is 2 months old roughly (I think around 5-6...

    Do you change your own oil?

    So I just changed the oil in my truck this past weekend. I took it to the dodge dealership. I must say.... it was a horrible experience. I have been to this dealership many times in the past to get my previous Ram 1500's oil changed (had a maintenance plan which apparently does not carry...

    Ordered my suspension!!

    So I just ordered my suspension components. I am pretty excited and also very nervous. I am going to do my best to document the trucks physical appearance both before and after and also the install itself. Additionally I will write a brief synopsis on the handling differences between stock and...

    Pretty awesome truck

    Not sure where to put this thread (but it does have a hemi motor.. :naughty:) So I was browsing craigslist and found this. This guy threw a hemi 5.7L in this Dakota. Though the sticker on the back of the truck says 5.9 so not sure if he bored or stroked it? He has 385's!!! Holy cow those are...

    Ground Force 2/3 Spring rate VS Stock VS BT

    So.... I have heard from numerous sources that the BT 2/4 springs are either the same if not softer than the stock springs. Does anyone know if the GroundForce 2/3 drop springs are stiffer than stock? If so, wonder if it would be better to get those springs and cut the rears to make it a full...

    Best wheels/tires for good on-road handling

    So, I tried to do a search and could not really find anything. I have a 16' RCSB sport and am trying to turn it into an actual sport truck. I already know what suspension set up I am going to do (which will probably have the greatest impact except for maybe really good sticky tires). This...

    Wish someone made a quality complete drop kit

    The more I read through these forums, the more it bothers me... It seems there really is not a good lowering solution for these trucks.... I mean, you either run one of two choices to drop: McGaughy 2/4 or Belltech 2/4. Then you need to get all the other associated parts to make the drop...

    Hello all, I recently purchased a 2016 Ram 1500 Sport Regular Cab. Prior to I had a 2014 Ram 1500 Lonestar Crew Cab. My Lonestar came with tinted windows (I assumed it was a Lonestar edition feature). My new Ram 1500 sport does not have tinted windows at all. However, I was...

    Best performance suspension setup for a 2/4 drop

    Hello all. I am new to the forums. First off, I know suspension has been beat to death on here... so sorry for another post. I recently purchased a 2016 ram 1500 regular cab Sport trim (regular bed 6'4" IIRC?). Is that what RCSB means? regular cab short bed? For over the last week I have...
