    Thuren rear coil ride height

    That is the build I’m looking at. I have about +300 lbs of sliders and skids on, +100lbs Dethloff bed rack and +300lbs of recovery gear in the bed. I really want to do the 1.5” up front and stock height Thuren rear coils with a 1” spacer but I am afraid I will be nose up with zero rake. I’d...

    Thuren rear coil ride height

    Did you use 1.5” or 0.5” up front?

    Has any one found or know of a chart approximating the Thuren rear coil ride heights under various weights?

    37” spare

    Went with a ratchet strap and used my bed hooks. Keeps the weight of the spare roughly in the factory spot and didnt add more new weight with so expensive thing I have to bolt in. I have been running 37s with the 4.10 gears and done done steep inclines just fine so not on my priority list at...

    Carli and Thuren’s Gen 5 approaches

    I’m not so much interested in hearing peoples opinions about suspension is better in terms of ride quality. I want to discuss the technical differences between the two approaches so I can better understand why they are so different. From what I have gathered, their approaches are as follows...

    2019 Power Wagon build thread

    Yes, it is very worth it with the 37s. The OEM stabilizer wasnt out of control but the TS really dampens the feedback especially with dips and bumps.

    Traxda 2” Leveling Kit for Power Wagons

    The PW OEM radius arm is not at all the same as other 2500s. It has an extra joint allowing more flex than other 2500 Radius arms. Look at it on the RAM website, it’s called an Articulink Radius arm. The guys at Carli, Thuren, and CJC have talked about the positives and negatives of replacing...

    Read my post above to understand why Traxda stopped selling the 2” kit.

    Traxda 2” Leveling Kit for Power Wagons

    The 19+ PW is 2.25” taller in the front and 1” taller in the rear over a comparably equipped 2500 Hemi truck. The PW only has 1.5” of front rake compared to the 2.5” of other Hemi 2500s. So it is a over all lift with less front rake. All this said, Traxda is a large company which makes one...

    Traxda 2” Leveling Kit for Power Wagons

    You can actually clear a legit 36” tire with a 27mm offset, no rubbing. 37x12.5 BFGs will rub slightly with 27mm and clear completely with 18mm. “Truer” 37s will rub slightly a 18mm. Also for anyone who wants to get more crazy, with the negative offset AEV 17s and AEV fender flares you can...

    Traxda 2” Leveling Kit for Power Wagons

    I’ve pretty much done this. OEM suspension has plenty of ability off road. Running 37” STT PROs wrapped on 17” AEV, rock sliders, some bolt on underside armor and replaced my steering stabilizer with a Fox TS (the difference is notable). I might do a fully optioned Thuren suspension system at...

    Dodge off road products on the Power Wagon?

    Can I ask what Thuren coils he used? Dropping 2” of height seems like a step backwards.
