Man I wish there were an aftermaket air ride for the 4x4

You could easily adapt the factory air ride struts and rear bags you would just have to use an aftermarket controller and tank/pump setup. I used the factory air line and sensor mounts.

Im just saying you could use the factory front air struts they would bolt right in on a 4x4 the rear you could use ridetech or factory bags there as well. I wish I could have done that but the 2wd factory air ride trucks use the 4x4 frame.

Just something I noticed as I looked back through your pics, Are those rear links stock?? and do you know if they changed their style from my year to yours? My links are all round tube, the ones in your pick look to have a squared shape to them?

They changed the design of the arms in 2013.

Im guessing because of the factory air ride option the upper links have mounts for the height sensors.

Well I removed the air ride and some other things and traded the truck in. I will be posting in the sale threads soon if anyone is looking. Bought a new 392 Daytona charger in destroyer gray and I love it. Felt the need for speed.:naughty:

I got a 2/4 mcgaughys drop... the wheels stick out just a lil bit all of them except the back driver side. What would you recommend to fix that? Also do you thing getting different shocks would make my ride smoother? Its not bad but I think it could be better.

I have a 13 ram 1500 crew cab. I am looking to put air ride on it is it the same as the stock air ride on a 17. Can I put the air ride from the 17 on my 13?

Nice truck, I would like to add air suspension for a better ride. Maybe next year.
