    BD Diesel replace manifolds

    Yep, I'd kind of like some input from someone that has these as well. I have an appointment coming up soon to, undecided on trying out these manifolds.

    Lifter Tick

    I just recently broke a manifold stud, looking at headers. Can I ask what type you are using?

    Any updates on these 1223 VT springs?

    Suspension Upgrade for Towing

    Agree with all of the above - but if springs are warranted ... I'm using Tuftruck 1211's Products Results – TufTruck First thing though, get the trailer and tongue weights while loaded, check on a WDH and don't exceed capacities. Pay attention to the load capacity - yellow sticker at the...

    Need to increase my payload, help!

    If you do go with heavier springs, these springs are worth looking into. https://www.tuftruck.com/products/ttc-1211-rear-suspension-coil-spring-kit/ Call the folks at Tuf Truck - they are very helpful. As others have said, check your axle, wheel, and tire ratings if you go over the sticker...

    Change coil spring or add airlift on ram 1500

    Just in case the OP is still watching the thread, I also have the Tuff Truck 1211 springs on my truck, pull a trailer with similar weights. To each his own, but I have had air bags, and now I have these springs. I greatly prefer the springs. And no, they do not create a harsh, stiff ride. Go...

    Eibach pro truck actual lift?

    I just happen to have a 2017 4x4 quad cab hemi. Just a few weeks ago I put on some Eibachs front and back. I retained my stock springs in the front, and had already been using TuffTruck 1211's in the rear. I added a 1" Daystar space in the back, set the front on the middle groove that is...

    Hodges 2016 Bilstein Build

    I looked extensively, YouTube is a great source usually, couldn't find anything but the company's promo video. Took a chance because of all of the great reviews of the MT. Because of the quarantine in these parts, I doubt if I've put more than a couple hundred miles on them.

    Hodges 2016 Bilstein Build

    I recently picked up a set of the Patagonia XT all terrains, too much highway driving for me to get the MT's - 276/65 r 20 - for $130 a pop at Amazon. Reviews are hard to find, but I'm pleased so far. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07P9S6CPL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    295 vs 285 at 2.1

    I recently raised my truck a bit - 1 1/2" in the front with Eibecks, and 1" in the back with Daystar spacers. I wound up going with 276/65r20's, they are just a pinch over 34", they are night and day better than the stockers, but kind of wishing I had gone with 285/65's. Kind of hard to see in...

    Eibach vs Bilstein, my opinion.

    I just recently installed the Eibach's on my 2017 1500 - front and rear, used the stock springs on the middle location, with a daystar 1" spacer in the rear. Previously I installed TuffTruck 1211 springs in the back. I retained those. I kept the stock front springs hoping to keep the same...

    Want a small lift but still need to tow heavy

    I have the same situation as the OP. My solution in the back was to use TuffTruck 1211 springs, a 1" Daystar spacer and Eibach shocks. In the front I used Eibach struts set to 1 1/2" I just ordered my tires, they should be here this coming Friday. I Got some LT 275/75R20's (all terrains)...

    Guide to Leveling & Wheel and Tire Sizing for 06+ 4wd Ram 1500's

    Hoping someone can verify this, I just had my Eibach's installed (very similar unit to a Bilstein 5100). I raised the front 1.5" only, added some 1" Daystar spacers at the rear over TufTruck 1211 springs. Shouldn't be an issue using 285/65r20 Falken's on my stock 20" wheels should it?

    @ Thanks, can you send me a quote on both the front and rear units.

    Eibach Pro Lift Struts and Spring on 34's ( pics inside)

    I'm still considering a mild lift, going to use my stock springs and keep the front lift at 1.4" if I use Bilsteins, or 1.5" with the Eibach units. Given that, will the Eibach's still be a better fit for me than the 5100's?
