    Bilstein 5100 Leveling Questions

    I’m curious too, what setting was it set to? Still good and level?

    3.5" lift CV joint experiences

    Here’s mine for reference. If you don’t want to do a full lift, I would suggest leveling by removing the spacer that’s inside the strut, only using the top spacer and remove the rear spacer.

    3.5" lift CV joint experiences

    You have a Rebel, you already have an extra inch of lift because of the longer Bilstein shocks... You effectively have 4.5 inches of lift without a diff drop, of course your angles are going to be steep. Stock Setup plus 3.5 is well within the safe range, but if I were you, I would look into...

    2019+ Rams with Lifts/Levels, and/or aftermarket wheel tire setups

    Good eye! I purchased my truck up in McKinney but have all my service done at Huffines since it's closer to where I live. I feel bad for all the folks griping about their dealer service, Huffines is top notch and always treats me right. Had I known how awesome they are I would have purchased...

    2019+ Rams with Lifts/Levels, and/or aftermarket wheel tire setups

    Youll have to buy new or unlocked. Most if not all speedo calibrators are VIN locked to whatever truck it's used on first and wont work on another truck until it's removed from the original.

    2019+ Rams with Lifts/Levels, and/or aftermarket wheel tire setups

    The Ridge Grapplers are great! They ride well, very quiet and comfortable, as well as good wear so far ( 9,000 Miles so far and they still look new) They hook in the sticky stuff good enough for my need. I've never run a dedicated MT since this is my daily and dont care for the noise and poor...

    3.5" lift CV joint experiences

    I had it installed, it should be more or less the same as the rough country lift, just better quality IMO. Order the lift take it to any suspension or offroad shop and the should be able to put it on for you. There is nothing out of the ordinary about the kit and the instructions are pretty good.

    Steering Sticking Left

    The recall for the faulty ground fixed a COMPLETE loss of power steering, not for the binding while turning left. From what I can gather this is being caused by something in the steering gear binding up, you'll probably end up getting a new steering rack. I wish I could tell you more about that...

    Alpine 9+1 system "Subwoofer" findings, polarity, and options

    Keep us posted, take pictures! I've been thinking about doing this myself, but have been waiting for someone else to show proof of concept.

    3.5" lift CV joint experiences

    No issues with mine, I believe I was the first to have the lift put on their truck period (pre-ordered Readylift and put it on the same day I received the kit) so probably have the most miles on the system. The CV angles are fine, the diff and it's angles were designed in a way to accommodate an...

    Ticking noise when started cold, 2 seconds

    The hemi has hydraulic lifters, sometimes they collapse on themselves when the engine is cold. This is one of the several types of "hemi tick" you'll hear about, this is one that is nothing to worry about and is just part of the deal.

    Magna flow!?!?

    You nailed it. It’s only noticeable after a muffler swap since the air is moving through the exhaust at a much faster rate and volume vs. stock so you can hear it being pushed out of the weep hole.

    Power Steering Failure! Super Dangerous

    What a joke, find a new dealer that actually cares about its customers. This recall takes 5 minutes to perform, there's no excuse for ignoring a recall and it borders on illegal.

    Magna flow!?!?

    I have the same set up as 19 Streak, so I think I can help you out aswell. I would implore you to go ahead and remove the rear resonators, the weep hole "leaky air" sound is horrible and it will drive you nuts, once you notice it, you'll never not notice it. Welding them shut isn't a good idea...
