    2/4.5 or 3/5 kit?

    I’m planning on dropping it already at least 2/4.5 but would like just a tad more if there isn’t too much rubbing. The long term wheels that I’ll run are 22x10 on 305/45 nittos or toyos. I know the rear will have plenty of room but how much scrubbing at full lock turn should I expect from each...

    Lowered 2022 5th Gen. IHC 3/5

    I just got my IHC 3/5 drop installed on my 2022 1500 Bighorn. I love the look of it, but to be honest the rear is a little bouncy. I also installed the airlift helper bags and am thinking the problem lies with the shocks. I am going to try to find a Bilstein replacement for the IHC supplied...

    Towing with a Belltech 2/4" kit

    Does anybody tow with the 2/4 kit installed? I am wondering if anyone uses anything to supplement the drop kit? i.e. airlift bags, stiffer shocks, etc.. I'm not towing anything crazy, but I like to have it setup for when I do. Thanks!

    Inez 5/7 with Belltech 2” drop spring

    Right now I have the belltech 2/4 drop and plan on switching over to Inez 5/7. Does anyone know what would happen if I used the 2” front drop spring with the 5” drop arm to get a 7” drop in the front? Probably a dumb question but I know there’s people who understand suspension components better...

    Mcgaughy's 2/4in kit?

    So looking on the Mcgaughy's website, they offer 2 different 2/4 kits for the rams. 1 kit comes with spindles and the other with front lowering coils. I'm wondering which kit would be a better option to lower a 4x4 truck? Does the spindle kit retain the factory shocks and springs? I'm wondering...

    McGaughy’s 2/4 Drop kit

    SOS .. I ordered the McGaughy’s 2/4 deluxe drop kit. When I received my order only two springs came in with the kit and the springs read REAR on them. Am I missing the front springs or does this kit work so I don’t need new front springs??

    Another 2001 Ram Lowering Thread

    Hey guys, I've recently acquired a 2001 Ram 1500 extended cab that is 4x4 with Off Road package.

    Can someone give this truck the adobe slam, please?

    I just found a rare picture on the net of Dub Baller in 20" on a ram. I'd highly appreciate if someone could photoshop it to around a ~4/6 drop. That's the main thing. If I were to ask for more, my second request would be lower profile street type tires. {295/45r20 is the size I want on these...

    4"+ rear drop question.

    I've already bought shackles for the rear of my truck, but might end up with a single cab soon [which is what I really want] and when I get THAT, I know I want it to be 3/5-6 to 4/6-7 dropped or so. I know a 2" shackle really gives more like 1.5" of drop, but I also know that drop springs give...
