New here

[Dezert Ram]

Been lurking here for a while. Lots of good info. I just started wasting money on my truck. I use mostly for work but I was tired of boring stock look. Just installed maxtrac 4.5 spindles. They were pretty easy, I think the brake line/abs wire setup is not very well thought out, but all in all it’s a good kit. I have wheels and tire going on this weekend and planning on building a ram runner copy bumper soon. Also if you plan to do the spindles let me know, a few tips before getting into it that I wish I had known

I was surprised it rides good still. I haven’t decided on the rear yet. Waiting til new tires are on and I smash on it a little bit to see if it’s gunna settle anymore. I got 33’s but looking at the clearance I’m wishing I had got 35’s now.

How did you guys like the brake line? Seemed to me like it could have been a few inches shorter.

sounds crazy,but because of the angle if you change sides it will short-n the length

well.....I think it will unless you have them different from mine?

but take a look & you will see what I mean....

They are the same length side to side on mine. I tried to swap at the beginning. I’ll take a picture and see what you think.

Got tires and wheels on. Rides pretty good still. Had to adjust headlights way down.
