I have lowered the rear 3" the axle did not shift forward at all. I have ordered a panhard relocation bracket and an adjustable panhard bar to fix the side shift. Now would the truck benefit from the non adjustable upper and lower control arms are they better than the stock arms.

Your stock arms are fine. You don't start to notice the shift forward until about a 4" drop. I wouldn't worry about it.

I started off with the 2" rear drop coils on my 2011 Ram. I also added the Hellwig rear bar, and it was a very noticeable difference over the stock swaybar. I'm now down to the Ground Force 2/3 drop, and the truck rides and handles great. I'm very impressed with how tight the truck takes corners with the new swaybar installed.

My truck loved the Hellwig sway bar, and the 4 link.

Sweet. Why is the truck back on stock wheels now? Looks like it's lifted back up too?

No it's just like it was, haven't been drove in a while. I need to get off my butt and start working on it again. Man it never ends.
Just want to say thanks for all the info, never would have gotten this far without people like you.
