HD springs 35% stiffer front

[Posjr]

So here's the deal. I'm dropped with inez 5/7, viking shocks, hellwig sways front and back.

I'm trying to achieve a firm ride without bottoming out. I tried a few settings with the shocks but nothing is just right.

So I found these 35% stiffer HD springs fronts I'm thinking of trying. Any ideas how this might work out?

The way I figure it is my total travel is limited due to the drop. So I need stiffer springs rather than stiffen shock settings.

Rear is good. My helper bags help alot.

I have ground force 2 inch dropped springs and experience the same issue on occasion. Shocks made little difference as you indicated. So following

They also have a 70% meant for snow plows.

I'm going for it just don't know 35% or 70%.

Will that was a total fail. Ad says 2wd and shows a spring that looks like a 2wd front spring. Received a 4x4 front spring. Apparently there is no HD front spring for our rams.....

Second try is going to be rough County 2in front level spring. Apparently it's thicker and more stiff than stock. I'll try cutting one coil and see how that feels with the 5/7 drop.

Just an update. I installed some rough country 2inch leveling springs. They are thicker and firmed up the front end a lot. I cut 3/4 coils off which put me 1/2 higher than with the stock springs. Hopefully it will settle and give me the true 5in drop. Now I need to play with shock setting and will update.

this is just another reason why you don't lower trucks. ffs
