    Turbo lag / Throttle response

    Really noticed the lag this week when we were off road and in some pretty deep sand and went through some deep water holes, I didn't feel as confident in this Truck off road as I did in my Hemi, Dropping into the water holes with the delay in response made the Truck feel like it was always on...

    Turbo lag / Throttle response

    Thanks Captain Obvious, It's a Stop sign turning left or Right onto a Major 2 lane Highway and during rush hour you could sit there for ever and wait for a completely clear Exit with cars piling up behind you from people leaving work. So sit there and P*** off a hundred People behind you or go...

    Actual amount of lift with Rough Country 3.5 Lift

    That's what we figured, Just trying to understand how Rough country can call it a 3.5 inch lift when actually you're only getting a 1 inch lift. They should label it as a Level kit with 1 inch overall lift. :p

    Actual amount of lift with Rough Country 3.5 Lift

    Ok I've asked this question on Rough Country site and can't get an answer, My understanding is that the 3.5 inch lift kit actually only lifts the Truck 1 inch overall? Do they add the level kit in the front to the overall lift? So if you have the Level kit already installed on your Truck and buy...

    Body Lift Kits

    How is this body lift working out any problems? did you have any real issues with anything needing extended (Wires and Such)? Where did you find the Correct body bolts? Mine might be a little different because it's a diesel but I would think it's the same Thanks

    Who Leases? Who Purchased?

    Sorry not sure, I always went thru my Credit union knowing I was trading it in. In rare cases you can get the dealership to buy the Truck. With my 2016 I told them I was buying the Truck at the end of the Lease and then trading it in on a 2018, Because the 2016 was worth more then the Chrysler...

    Who Leases? Who Purchased?

I purchased the...

    Just Bought the 2021 North Edition asked dealer for Best Leveling kit and they tried to sell me some 85.00 Spacers?

    Love The North Edition ED with the 3.92 Pulls like a Beast, I just hate how difficult and expensive it is to upgrade silly stuff on the 5th Gens like factory Bed lighting adding the wireless Phone charger adding LED lights if it did not come with.... adding upgraded Speakers and such. I know...

    Just Bought the 2021 North Edition asked dealer for Best Leveling kit and they tried to sell me some 85.00 Spacers?

    Explanation from Dealer ( When you add a Rough Country Spacer to the Stock Strut You are essentially doing the same thing as the Bilsteins you are compressing the Spring to achieve lift.) I mean they are correct in that Aspect... I still believe there is a Difference! I'd have to lay them side...

    Just Bought the 2021 North Edition asked dealer for Best Leveling kit and they tried to sell me some 85.00 Spacers?

    This is my 4th Ram and Have always Leveled with the Bilsteins. I asked the dealership because this was a North Edition and was Supposedly already equipped with a 1 inch Lift. What the best way to level the Truck and not Void any warranty. They told Me Spacers from Rough country, I'm not a Huge...
