hi there, Bought a 2011 ram 1500. No idea what model it is, would love to figure that out.

Need to replace front bumper, would like to know what years will work.

Lastly i noticed a leak in the upper transmission coolant line. Are these lines a ***** to do? Any stickies or videos on someone doing the repair on a 4th gen. i cant find anything.

Also i plan on level and 33s. Im wondering what backspacing these stock rims have. I guess i can take off and measure. I want to push the tires out .5-1inch

Thanks to all who read my post

Since the seller gave you no info, I’d start by going to the Ram website, and plugging in your VIN to get the build sheet ... That will give you a lot of info

09-12 on the bumper

Probably +19 on the wheels

Oh, and 275/60R20 is a stock size, and they are 33’s ... Bilsteins are your best bet to level

My stock tires are 265/70 and they look like little dinky doughnut spare tires. Guys with 285/75 look proper. 35s fit perfectly imo but im not prepared to get 4mpg.

Do you know why my truck is like a lowrider in the front? How come others i park next to that seem stock, no spacer, stock strut. Have more of a lifted nose
