2013 ram 1500 4x2 10in suspension lift

[sausec17]

hey guys i actually can accomplish the lift feature catch this i just contacted the guy that installed the fabtech 6in lift on his 2010 ram 1500 2wd he said the crossmembers helpeld big time.. so i contacted fabtech and they said the have a couple vendors that sell thre crossmember kit so you can drop youo ca and raise your spindles and be able to fit a 6in coil spring or say a 3in coil spring a spacer alll while keeping your 4.5 spindle from maxtrac.. i just ordered it and i have to say after days of research i have my fingers crossed..

interested in seeing the suspension's geometry after its done

Signing up to see this one. It's your truck, throw that 2WD up in the air.

Gettin' a little sick of people ****tin' on people's ideas or trucks because it's not what they would do.

This is the before and after. In the before picture (top) I was running a 2.5" daystar leveling kit. In the after (bottom) I am running your 4.5" spindles and in the rear just the 3" coil springs.
So 7" in front and 3" in back. Only leaving me with 1" of rake

Yea I remember him. The guy from Hawaii, white 09 ram. I have his thread here, but I don't know where he got those slapper bars from. I thought those were only for rear leaf spring trucks?

THESE?

 

[sausec17]

Nice good find CxLxC. Still unsure exactly what these do?

Those braces just strengthen up the lower crossmember since now it's inches lower it's more likely to flex forward or backward on rough terrain or impact.
