@olyelr i may or may not have put product placement in the pictures to keep it interesting

Well yes…it was obvious to me you at least did the front eibach setup because i could see them in a few of the pics. Obviously has a drop down setup on the front cradle, so was just assuming you went with the zone setup because thats seems to be your recommendation a lot.

I guess i will just sit here in anticipation lol

hmmmm. Well wtf
The pic of the shocks in the back of the truck are definitely front eibachs….which you clearly didnt use lol. So if there is fox units up front, and no spacers that i can see, must be 6”?

LoL I put the eibach height adjustable struts on the tailgate to throw off what was happening. If we were playing hot cold you would be very warm. Giving what I recommend a lot and has been my go to budget friendly option.

I was finishing body mounts on a super duty so I did a lot of rust treatment painting on the ram and while letting the paint dry I hopped on wrapped up the super duty

The Ram is a Jersey truck that spent a lot of time on the beach. A lot of sand was up in the frame. We use rust reformer and VHT chassis paint to clean trucks up

Was thinking the exact same thing but was hoping for something more special like new coilovers that fit the Zone/BDS 4-inch lift...lol.

Exactly! I was told Fox was working on the 2.5 Coilovers for the Zone/BDS 4-inch lift for 5th Gen Ram Rebel/1500s much like what they offer for the 6-inch lift so been impatiently waiting for those to come out!

It’s the same coilover for the 4 and 6.

Ooooooooh la frikin laaaaaaaaa


So whats the damn specs already lol

Overall height f/r, tire size, brand/components etc.

Well no kidding…so they will adjust low enough to get it to 4”, as well as up to 6”? So the fox 6” struts will work with a 4” drop kit?

Man, you're truck looks perfect with the 5-inch adjusted lift and 36s on -18MM offset wheels too! Since you dialed down the coilovers, how does it ride? I am wondering if the taking the preload out of the 2.0s made it noticeably looser on higher speed turns and/or too soft for off-roading. Finally, can you get any measurements to top of shark fin with your setup as I am really thinking I could live with just 2 more inches of height over my 3-inch Dirt Logic system if it would still fit in the garage...lol.

My problem is that I wanted to go with the Fox 2.5 coilovers as that would be a nice step up from my current Dirt Logic 2.5s (especially for varying off-road scenarios) but going with a Fox 2.0 would be a step down (from an off-roading perspective). So I have been talking with the BDS/Zone techs and they said that they didn't have a Fox 2.5 coilover for their 4-inch lift and not sure if they ever will; however, a notable vendor on this site suggested that Fox is actually developing one but had no idea when they would be offered! I even asked BDS about dialing the 6-inch lift with Fox 2.5s down to 5-5.5 inches and they said that they couldn't recommend that either since they never tested it. I am wondering if dialing down the 2.5s that much would make the suspension too soft for higher speed handling and off-roading, but if the 2.0s are working just fine for you then maybe that's the answer!

AGAIN, NICE WORK!!
