Nice truck! I'm in the Navy as well stationed on the Bush. What command are you at?

I'm on the Kearsarge. We are at the BAE shipyard right now.

Thanks for your support. Can't wait to get a Ram of our own after our deployment.

Fab fours bumper? How did you work around the body lift?

It is an Iron Bull bumper. i just reused the same bumper brackets that were used with my stock bumper but the mounting slots are vertical and im sure if i went in the very bottom of the holes it would have been flush.

I think the overall look of the truck improved with the new rubber. Nice work!

Can the OP or someone else explain this particular suspension setup? Not new to the forums and trust me I know about the search function... but I am new to these trucks and only want to lift mine once the right way. It seems like he's got multiple lifts stacked together to achieve a really aesthetically pleasing truck but how does it handle? And how is suspension travel and CV angles effected? I'm also new to a 4wd.

The 6" RCX is suspension and I have no complaints on how it handles w/ the Bilstein shocks. I'm sure the ride would be a bit smoother if they were not adjusted all the way 2.8 but the ride is fine to me. The 1.25 body lift is simply raising the body from the frame to achieve a little extra lift and does not interfere with the 6" suspension lift what so ever. The RCX lift has a drop down bracket to maintain your CV angles. And the 4.56 gears really bring all of your power back after adding the large tires

Vararam, 87mm TB, and BT Catch Can Installed:





Needs some cleaning under the hood just too cold to mess with it right now.

What gains did you see out of these mods? Worth the money?
