    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    $40K +/- all said and done. The dealership I had to go through was stingy as **** coming down off the MSRP. They had the only 2 within 250 miles. Sticker was like $53K and I got $10.5K in rebates (Great Lakes region + military)

    Matching up tint

    Haha. Bet you got a steal though...and with matching tint.

    Matching up tint

    Damn, I was hoping 30% would match the rear tint. I’m allowed 50% by Ohio law and didn’t want to go into the 20% range. Oh well, looks way better than stock OP. Thanks for posting

    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    Fo sho. Had them on my Tacoma and they were phenomenal.

    Air Break Sound

    Thanks for posting this, that’s what I was looking for. Regardless, the air release going back to the tanks will probably sound similar to air break release to atmosphere if the tanks are not wrapped in some sort of insulation/sound deadening material. Sounds logical to me that would be the...

    Air Break Sound

    OK buddy. If you say so. I find it odd that everyone is reporting air escaping noises though. You got anything to back up your theory?

    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    I’m thinking about going with setting 3 or 4 to maintain somewhat of a rake, but I haven’t even ordered mine yet

    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    If you look at the bilstein instructions for the 5100’s they clearly show lift height gains for both normal AND off road package suspension. Max height for the ORPs is 2”. Max height for normal suspension is 2.6”. I got the BTS truck too. I called Bilstein customer service and ran all this...

    Air Break Sound

    I saw that, I was looking for a graphic of how the air compressor interacts with the sealed nitrogen system. Just curious how it works together

    I love my 2020 Laramie 1500! But one problem, MDS..

    I do tow/haul around town and “8” on the shifter on the highway. Didn’t see much MPG loss either maybe 0.4-0.6 Worth it in my book

    Rear Track Bar Adjustment - Suspension Lean

    Interested in the fix for this. I chased these issues in my Tacoma and I’m scared to take measurements of my new RAM because I may not like the numbers

    MPG loss

    Yes. Every single truck I’ve ever owned, I’ve either lifted or leveled. Every single one lost MPGs after

    Rear Track Bar Adjustment - Suspension Lean

    Might be the driver side shock binding, not letting the suspension rebound all the way up to match the passenger side. Quick way to tell is to remove the rear shocks and see if it sits level without them. At least you’ll know if it’s the culprit or not.

    Air Break Sound

    Oh I get it. It’s both. Air compressor drives a piston that pushes nitrogen into the bags. The air release is either to purge air/moisture or whatever and the sealed system is unaffected. If that is in fact what’s going on here, still sounds overly complicated. Does anyone have a diagram or...

    Air Break Sound

    OK, so if the system uses the bags as the “reservoir” there could still be an emergency release valve that gets triggered at a certain PSI. I’m just offering up possibilities, I’m curious to find out what is really going on though. I can’t find anything online and mine doesn’t have air bags.

    2.25" Sport Tow/Haul Shock Leveling System

    Maybe, but it’s still a hemi. I can still pull way more than I need.
  17. Krootz

    Air Break Sound

    Yeah, nitrogen would be overly complicated and expensive for an air ride setup. It’s got to be an air compressor system...and those ALWAYS have a pressure release valve that activates at a set PSI to keep from popping the bags.

    2.25" Sport Tow/Haul Shock Leveling System

    Yeah, mines got the 3.21 gears. Window sticker confirms it.

    Air Break Sound

    Wait...air ride with nitrogen? Seems a little off to me. I recall it being a compressor, as in like “air” compressor. Nitrogen would require a sealed system. I’m curious now

    2.25" Sport Tow/Haul Shock Leveling System

    Damn those are expensive! I just looked them up and didn’t expect to see a 4 digit price tag.
