2012 1500 4x4 rear coil spring issue!

[ram1500rsm]

So you just felt like commenting on the coils and interjecting your opinion when the whole conversation there was no mention on just swapping coils but installing the full kit including relocation brackets to fix the problem the op is having? I think someone is confused or just wanted to ramble. But that's just my opinion. Like yours neglecting what we were talking about first hand.

Didn't know you and i had a beef... oh well.
But Yep, I think we can all "interject" around here as this is an internet forum.
And neglecting what again?? hahahaha, bla bla bla... i'm not going to go down there with you sorry bro.

Somebody reading post# 11 would think that coils alone from Nick will have something to do with having a straight looking coil if they were not following couple of posts before that. Yes i was not trying to play smartazz with Quick_shifter as hard as its sounds for you, but if you got that impression well ask somebody to sing you as song tonight if that makes you feel better ? The opinion i gave was about coil spring bow, possible causes, how it won't hurt the truck and possible solutions alone with my views on the topic as a whole. If you didn't want to know you can always read something else.

I didn't know Zone only relocated the uppers that was my bad, but now that i know how they did it in that instance, i won't have anything nice to say about that and it may come in future posts where the topic is more appropiate. Nothing you can do about it.

Not for you piece of mind, but I'd have said exactly the same whether the coil spring brand in post#11 would have been Icon, Tufftruck, Mopar, BDS or insert your own coil spring brand here. Take it for what it's worth it. I don't think i have nothing else to add unless you insist asking me about this topic that somehow has struck a cord in your butt ?

No beef that just rediculous I just rather see the OP be safe truck safe and get it fixed with whatever option he chooses but non the less getting it fixed. I'm not here to cause problems just give the information that I can to fix them and not make the same mistakes I did along the way at one point or another. This place isnt a ******* contest its here for information and to help. Its taught me alot from alot of smart people and I return any knowledge I have as well to help just like I was

I do not know the technical terms.....It looks to me in the first OP image that the little nub the bottom of the spring sets on is rolled counterclockwise from where it should be. In one of the other images it looks like the brake caliper is roll off where it is supposed to be. That’s all I got.

Looking at the pictures, it looks to me like the springs are seated 180 degrees off. The "tail" on the bottom should be towards the back. They were on mine, anyways.

Make sure the coil spring spacers are seated inside the bed correctly. There is a hole they will sit in.

I would try to loosen the panhard bar, the upper control arms and lower shock bolts then jump up and down in the back of your bed. After that then tighten the upper control arms first, shocks and then the panhard bar.

Purchased truck used with rcx lift, not sure if it is 3 or 4 inch lift. Rear coil springs bent over. Will this hurt the truck, is it safe and how to fix this?

Damn, that doesn't look right at all.

Well it finally happened! Left coil spring fell out two days ago. Truck is at a off-road shop. I told them to fix it. Don't have a solution yet. ----- what I think caused this--had just had my tires rotated and balanced. I believe when they lowered my truck that the spring was misaligned. Only a matter of time before spring would pop out. Will post fix when I find out.
