    MPG effect of 3.92 rear end

    you never really know what you’re getting. Times running 70 I’m at 23 on instant and times it’s 18. Don’t see wind or up/downhill but it’s there. Since purchase and now have 6500 miles, I’m at 18.2. That’s everyday driving sometimes stop and go, sometimes pulling my boat, sometimes nice 50mph...

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    With these springs being progressive it’s different. Typically it’s 1 at the spring equals 2 at the truck. Meaning stand up spring and measure free height, I’d its 18” than to get 1” drop you you measure the height of the top coil to where it’s 17.5”. That’ll give you 1” drop. BUT, the top 3...

    MPG effect of 3.92 rear end

    I have 3.21 and if I tow anything it’ll be a bassboat. Can’t see any reason why I’d ever need the 3.92s. Pulls better than any GM I’ve had with 3.73s. 400ftlbs of torque is plenty enough and I can take advantage of the fuel economy.

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    I purchased new wheels/tires/TPMS, put them and drive home with factory wheels in the bed. Unloaded factory and went drive and never got any light, it picked up the new ones that fast.

    Uneven rear advice

    I recently lowered the rear 2” and upon measuring afterwards I discovered the drivers side is 1/2” lower than to passenger side. Would you cut the passenger side spring or get a couple twist knuckles to lift the drivers side?

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    Can a progressive spring be cut and normal spring cutting practices apply? With a normal spring, 1 at the spring equals 2 at the truck. This is not meaning coils. If you stand the spring up and measure the height, say it’s 15”, if you wanna the truck to drop 1”, you take the tape and go around...

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    That’s a pet peeve of mine. With GM vehicles I would used drop shackles and lower drivers side 1.5 and passenger 2”. With this ram I thought it was the top rubber cause I knew I didn’t get it right the first time. We today I redid it and got it right and still 1/2” higher. ‍♂️

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    all my GMs were 1/2” lowered on driver side and looks like my ram is also. I hate that.

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    if you measure both sides from top the rim to fender what’s your measurements? I measure this way cause it rules out the affects of tire pressure. Mine seems to be 3/8-1/2” lowered on passenger side which drives me crazy. Think I’m gonna cut the spring to make right.

    Would 305/45/22 Look OK on my 2" lifted Laramie Sport?

    I do but it's the all season tire and I didn't lift the truck, I lowered the rear 2" and also added 1/4" spacers to pull wheel out some. The wheels are 22x10 (+25 offset)replicas of the factory painted/polished 22" sport wheels but these are true black instead of the factory charcoal gray.
