Howdy,

I recently purchased a 2015 1500 Laramie Longhorn and have a couple of questions.

1. Does anyone know the manufacturer of the front bumper that is on this truck (obviously aftermarket and apparently for repelling deer)? See pics attached.

2. Is the ride height supposed to be lower in front? Measuring at the wheel well the rear is 2.25" higher. Also, looking at the bump stop up front it seems awfully close to the control arm. I'm wondering if a heavier duty spring is needed for the extra weight.

So far I am liking this truck. With the 5.7L hemi it has good power and overall the ride is good, but we do feel what seems to be wheel bounce. The front shocks may be worn as it does bounce once or twice when I do the bounce test.

I just realized I put this in the wrong forum, would a moderator please move it to 4th generation? Thanks.
