    Need Emergency Help for 2wd lift

    Please do not attempt this. You will need a custom control arm or a spring specifically made for that suspension setup which is going to be super tough.

    Need Emergency Help for 2wd lift

    I actually had to remove the cross member and reweld the holes I did under the original lower control arm holes. It was a big waste of time, headache and hole in my wallet. Upper control arm angle was fine in my view. As someone else had mentioned I think the issues came about due to the lower...

    Need Emergency Help for 2wd lift

    It has a 7 inch Maxtrac lift. 35 inch tires. Alignment was good and it had no issues. I put a cross member from a rough country lift kit on it. This lowered the control arm connection points on my truck by 4 inches. On the front the cross member didnt align with the oem hole so we decided to...

    Need Emergency Help for 2wd lift

    So the problem was I had to make holes right under the oem location for the control arms to go in. So now If I try to put the control arms back in they will be lower on the front which I think is maybe dangerous or could cause issues. I was thinking to weld that up but not sure if thats a safe...

    Need Emergency Help for 2wd lift

    So I decided to pick up a cross member for a 4wd 4thgen ram 1500. I wanted to put this on my ram 1500 2wd. I already had a maxtrac 7 inch lift on my truck so I figured it would help lower the lower control arms so they wouldn’t sit as high on the part where they mount on the truck. Unfortunately...

    Transmission Flush gone wrong?

    Alright guys I took it in and its fucked. Im not sure if I did it with the flush or if it was like that before hand its going to need to be rebuilt. I will still take it to the dealer next time when it comes to important stuff like this. Trying to save money probably cost me more.

    Transmission Flush gone wrong?

    Do you think I should trust a delership with the job or should I go to a place that specializes in transmissions? I Kind of dont trust other shops as everyone claims there is a special process.

    Transmission Flush gone wrong?

    2014 Ram 1500 5.7 with the 8 speed trans. Decided to change out the trans fluid as my buddy got a discount on some he bought. Didnt replace the filter. Shifted through the gears. Only took me 4 quarts instead of the 9 I thought it needed. Now my troubles start. When I accelerate hard from 0-40 I...

    Maxtrac 7in Lift Questions

    Im looking to getting the Maxtrac 7in lift kit for my 2wd ram. Im looking at a lot of reviews but some mention the need of wheel spacers in the rear? Is this true?

    Oil Temps for Street Racing?

    Basically we drive out for 10 mins and then its 40-100 rolls, line up again, race, etc. Typically flooring it for a good few seconds. And then back to lining up. Im going to take more breaks for sure.

    Full Panoramic Sunroof?

    I really like the way ford has their dual glass “panoramic roof”. There is a gap in between the 2 pieces of glass but it all looks sleek and nice. Ive seen a couple guys get an extra sun roof in the back but it looks really ugly in my personal opinion. Is there anyone that has seen as a ram with...
