    2005 1500 4 wheel drive - transfer case issues

    Hello, I have a 2005 1500 with a 5.7 and have been having some 4x4 issues. When in 4H the truck will bind up in reverse and in a turn of any kind so much so that I have to give it a lot of throttle to move in reverse and it will just push straight on snow/ice in a turn at slow speeds. It seems...

    Couple lift questions

    I've been looking at the RC 6" lift (PN: 32230) for my truck, but I just bought some Cooper Adventurer A/Ts back in November. They are 275/60r20. Going to look a bit small but would I be able to keep these as well as the stock 20" rims until they wear out or would i need new wheels/tires? Also...

    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.
