    Need new shock suggestions, not sure what to get

    I've posted her a few times before. I'm probably over analyzing the hell out of the different shock choices. I'm currently running bils 5100 in front at 2.7 and have a 1 inch spacer in rear, mevotech UCA. Everything else is stock. I like the road driving of the bils but my backroading experience...

    adjusting bilsteins after 50K miles?

    So my ram 1500 2014 has been on bilstein 5100s in the front on stock coils for around 40-50K miles and they are set at the 2.7 setting. They aren't really causing me problems on normal roads, but on backroads that are rough my truck shakes and vibrates excessively. Admittedly I need new front...

    Urban Hill Climb Pic/Bilstein Ride Quality

    So here is a pic of my amazing hill climb I get to do everyday. My 2014 Ram 1500 4x4 has bils 2.8 in front and a 1 inch TGC in rear. When I bought the truck the suspension was softer as it was stock, but had I believe a 2 inch spacer, which I replaced with bils. No doubt the suspension was done...

    Rockford Fosgate slim line

    Ok so my normal t1s I have are too big apparently, so I've decided to go with the new slim power t1s in a 10. My local shop told me they run about 350 a piece from them, does this sound right. Everywhere online shows like 499 a piece. However years ago when I bought my normal t1s they msrp for...

    Factor oem black projectors

    My 2014 1500 has the chrome headlights and I would like to get the oem black projectors. From what I've researched I'm probably gonna need a new harness? Maybe a dealer code? Plug and play would be nice, but I assume this isn't that easy. Has anyone done this and if so what does everything cost.

    Tire options

    So I'm about to get some new wheels and tires. I'm gonna go 20x10 -25 with either 33x12.5r20 or 305/55r20, also looking at 295/60r20 possibly. I had landed on toyo at2s but after much review I'm getting some good some bad. I want something somewhat aggressive looking, but handles well and isn't...

    What are these?

    Does anyone know what spacers these are, they don't have any identifiers on them, no numbers. Pulled off my 2014 1500 4x4. They measure 1 1/4 inch tall

    installed 1"TGC rear Spacers

    So post 1 Inch rear TGC spacer install measurements with bils set to 2.8 up front FL-39 1/4 FR-39 1/2 RL-40 3/4 RR- 41 1/4 So I'm assuming the diff is due to left side weight being more? Pre measurements was exactly 1 inch less both sides, so the spacers did their job.

    TGC 1" rear coil spacer, ???

    OK so can someone explain to me how I am going to get 1 " of lift out of this coil spacer, when the spacer portion is only 1/2 of an inch? Is there some sort of magic at play here or do I need to contact TGC, did they send me the wrong thing?

    Of Course...Mevos

    So while installing my Mevos, the upper right, leaked grease through the gold plate, wiped it off, went on about it. Not even a week later i checked and of course, they are still leaking grease, and of course, rock auto is currently out of the right sides, but they have lefts. Just my luck. So...

    Black badges ?

    Are the oem black badges matte black or are some gloss black. When I check Amazon it tries to pair gloss front and rear ram heads with matte ram 1500 and hemi badges, and they all claim to be oem. Also if anyone has a link for a great price, im looking for those badges and the 4x4 in black.

    Rough ride with bilsteins?

    So I recently did bils at 2.8 with mevotech ucas. The ride down a mostly smooth road seems better, but any bump I go over or dip or a road that's not smooth, the ride seems either rougher or front end is tighter. Possibly just because the shocks are still very new, less than 50/100 miles...

    Rear coil spacer question

    Adding a 1 or 11/2 Rear coil spacer, do you need new shocks or can the factory handle it, anything wrong with staying with factory shocks?

    please check specs

    Installed my bils at 2.8 and installed mevo UCAs today, saved myself 500 dollars for install. Did not hear any clunking when driving, and everything feels ok. Also they drive alot smoother than with the what im assuming was a 1.5 spacer, as I gained an inch in the front. Please check these...

    weird audio clipping with USB

    So my 2014 ram 1500 4x4 with the uConnect 5.0/RA2 has this weird clipping noise when playing my ipod though the USB. Now, it is only with the usb and it isn't constant, and seems to be at random times when a song is played, and sometimes doesn't happen at all. The ipod cord and ipod were used in...

    Sub system input

    I have a 2014 ram 1500 crew cab, and wanting input on what box, amp, subs everyone is running. When I traded in, I pulled a Memphis 2200w amp and two rockford fosgate power t1 12s out of my car. After looking at boxes im assuming even the fox acoustics box won't accommodate these, they are 2010...

    Front bils only ?

    Will installing only the front 5100s at 2.8, with mevos cause any problems? I want to do the fronts first and I can always upgrade the rear later, just looking for input.

    Wide wheel problems

    Sorry if this has been answered. Anyone with 10 or 12 wide wheels have any short or long term suspension problems running wider negative offset wheels. I know the ball joints can be a problem, but better UCA should fix this. Just wondering what to look forward to by going wider and negative...
