but he states a shock extension on top be used be used: PN# 9029-163 which would put he shock in the middle of the travel range!

These did or did NOT require modification?

Edit: Nevermind - thread says: No modifications needed lol

No mods were needed - just a typo on my side from trying to respond using my phone...:banghead:

I used TS514 & TS905 based on a conversation with QA1 - These did NOT require any modifications or additional parts for my 2014 R/T with a 2/4 drop:

Anyway, thanks for the responses guys! Did either of you use the extensions they recommended?

Also, are the Moog K80337 for the front or rear? lol

Not sure what you mean for extensions - I got the K80337 for the front and the Hellwig adjustable end links for the rear...

Yeah when I talked to a Rep, he didn't even have a clue guys were using QA1's on Ram, he kept telling me that they didn't produce anything and if I was sure it was a QA1 shock....

Apparently they are completely **** about the travel of the shock (see above about "resting shock length" lol); so if it was 1 inch longer, it would technically be in the middle of the shock's full extended and full compression range. I'm not going to bother with the damn extensions...lol

side note - just got my QA1's in today! :happy107:
