QA1 Shocks: Modified & Installed on 4G Ram - Parts Needed, Install Tips, etc..

[Dubstep Shep]

The slack is the bolt is not large enough for the sleeve.

What sleeve are you using?

The slack is the bolt is not large enough for the sleeve.

^^^ What does that mean?? The ID of the sleeve and OD of the bolt???

 

[DavidRam]

If you got what I listed they are very tight... Mine are tight as can be. I hope there isn't a difference in bolt OD in the 2014?

My bolts were tight on a '14, very weird that they're sloppy for you Jay...

Hey David, first off thanks for the detailed thread and research! Awesome!
My question for you, when you were researching shocks what made you choose QA1 over say Strange, Afco or Fox(Ridetech)? And then twin tube over mono shock? Thanks man.

Thanks man! First, they were recommended to me by a couple people who are much more experienced than me. To add to that, I did a lot of reading and was very impressed with QA1 as a company, their experience, reputation and products.

What did you do for the top bushing on your front shocks?

QA1 supplied bushings.

 

[Dubstep Shep]

QA1 supplied bushings.

Are those the ones that are smaller than the OEM bushings?

I was swapping my ball joints to solve my camber issue on my truck when I noticed my upper bushings were completely blown out. I knew when I put them on that they were a little small and I should do something, but I figured I'd get around to it sooner when I said that. I just cut up my OEM bushings and used a sleeve to make that work, but I was hoping QA1 might have a different set of bushings or something.

TS905 are direct swap replacement for the rears. I have them on my truck. Im not sure about the front as I am still running stocks.
