    Inez Shocks worn out after a year and 1/2

    Ok, after thinking about this I think I have discovered why the Inez shock bushings failed so quickly. These came with their 4/6 drop kit. In that kit they send you Bell Tech 4" rear springs which your supposed to cut to get the 6" drop. I wanted a 4" drop so I did not cut the springs and as I...

    Inez Shocks worn out after a year and 1/2

    Just replaced all my shocks on my 2015 SBRC with Bilstiens. The front had the OEM shocks and the back had the Inez shocks. All the rubber eyelets on the Inez shocks were trashed after a year and 1/2 of driving. Is this common with lowered trucks? Or is Inez selling junk shocks?

    Flash to pass lights only high beam?

    I thought this was going to be a thread about if you flash your high beams to warn others about the policeman with the radar gun.

    2\4 MaxxTrax Drop, recommended items

    The geometry will be off, think of two parallel lines shoved up on one end and then your suspension moves upward from there. The IHC kit brings the arms back to being close to a leveled parallel.

    Seat covers?

    A couple of lowered questions...

    My RCSB is on a 2/4 drop with 285/45/R22 tires mounted on 22 x 9.5 wheels and I do not have any rubbing issues. Stock 275/60R20's are 33" tall and the 285/45/R22's are an inch shorter in height. Rear bump stop cups need to be removed.

    Audio Help

    I have the same Sony head unit in my 2015 Ram. I used a Crutchfield wiring harness adapter and bought inexpensive back up cam and put it in the back bumper next to the the license plate. I used a relay that is triggered by the reverse light to power the camera which is wired to the head unit.

    Airlift Bags

    Might be the upper coil springs more than the bottom of the spring. If you still have your stock springs, check and see if they have the rubber coil sleeves on them. You might be able to install the sleeves by jacking the rear up and let the suspension hang unloaded. I would try that first as I...

    Air Lift Suspension

    I have the 1000's on my 2015 RCSB with 2/4 drop and I can't put any air in them as they make the rear of the truck bounce so much that I can't stand it, might work if your towing or hauling heavy payloads, but I have not done either of those yet.

    Airlift Bags

    Update: I pulled the rear coil springs out and slipped on the coil spring rubber sleeves and put the Energy suspension coil spring isolators on the bottom of the coil springs. Result is no more squeaking!! Not sure which one did the trick, maybe it was combo of both. I'm happy with the results...

    Airlift Bags

    I ordered some Energy Suspension coil spring isolators Part# 3.6110R. They are for a GM vehicle but the size looks like it will work. Haven't installed them yet, but I dug my stock rear coil springs out and discovered that the upper coils have some rubber wraps on them. So I pulled them off and...

    Airlift Bags

    Only the front end of the four links were left untouched, the rears reinstalled in a Inez no-cut relocation brackets, but were tightened with a floor jack under the diff. Maybe the lower end of the rear springs could use a rubber isolator too.

    Airlift Bags

    Air is low enough that it can't be read on a tire gauge, maybe I need different air gauge for low pressure applications. Noise seems to be in the spring/airbag area.

    Airlift Bags

    The Airlift bags I installed in my RCSB 2/4 dropped truck are making some very annoying squeaking sounds. Any thoughts on how to eliminate the noises?
