Need more height at rear
Tuftruck springs are 18 1/4", will measure the ikons when I take them off as well for your database -
Need more height at rear
Not a huge fan of adding in a spacer to compensate for height lost due to weight. I've ordered the Tuftruck HD springs and will report back with my findings. Springs are 3 years old, 60,000km on them. May be fatigue, I don't have measurements from when I initially installed them. I also did... -

2014 RAM 1500 Express Crew Cab
Just wanna commend you on keeping up a great and informative build thread! Also, it's refreshing to see others with the intent to build their 1500 into a capable off-road machine. It's a bit of an uphill battle with this platform, but you certainly get some surprised looks and kudos when you...- Oddity

Need more height at rear
Measuring 38.5" to the center of the fender all around on 35's Mostly it's the hitch as that's the lowest point, but traversing crossditches at an angle has often dug into the corners of the bumpers too. Fox says 25.8" at full extension I've come across some heavy duty coils, thinking it may... -
Need more height at rear
Bit of a dilemma here. I'm running into the constant issue of approach / departure angles on forest service roads (fire roads) with cross ditches dug through them. The ~500lbs of constant load in the back likely isn't helping. Front is easily solvable with a high clearance bumper, but I think... -
Performance based clearance needed
My issue is that the rails and the tail end are constantly eating dirt, as my neck of the woods are tighter jeep trails with hefty cross ditches and rock slides that have trails built through. Not intending to wheel rocks for ***** and giggles, only when it's in my way. I was thinking a 6" BDS... -
Official "Coilover/Mid-travel/Long-travel" thread
Worth noting that any "Long Travel" kits will likely require new fenders as well, as the track is usually increased on the front wheels -
Performance based clearance needed
What are the best options out there to get more body clearance out of the truck without sacrificing performance? My truck has been getting into some tight spots, barely clearing rocks on the sideskirts or kissing crossditches with the rear bumper. I know lift kits are the popular option but I've... -
Bilsteins 5100 at 2.8 pics please
Plan is to get the Icon progressive springs (1.5" lift) and Fox 2.0 rear shock, that should even things out with gear in the back. Thanks! That's my old hardtail. Was thinking of getting a decent XC bike but the truck won out.. for now. -

Oddity's [LAND] 1500 Build
Got some new stuff in, nothing too special but I'm running out of storage under the seats.. Picked up a SuperFlow MV50 portable compressor and an OTC 5-ton bottle jack. The bottle jack packs in to a small package, should work well for changing a flat. Will have to either fab up a...- Oddity

thoughts on going from 20 to 17's
I went from 20" stockers with 33" rubber to 17"x8.5" Method NV (0 offset) with 35" tires. No rubbing, no issues with offset. Here's a comparison photo. -
BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2
Just got mine on a couple wees ago. Can't speak from personal experience for longevity, but my initial findings for grip and road noise has been quite positive. Mind you, I have 35"x12.5" tires, so depending on size your experience may differ. After much research and contemplation I decided to...
