    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Nothing too crazy today. Finally got my oil catch can in from billet technology. Just a hair over 3wks, but worth the wait. How often are you guys emptying the can?

    I liked the look of the level, but way happier going this route. Looks more like it's supposed to. I have thought about it. But keeping the 18" wheel, I wont be able to go crazy. Primarily due to tire backspace to UCA. But that's not saying I wont go with a 20x9 in the future. And keep these...

    Ya I was a bit sceptical. Have another thread I was asking questions on where one of the RL engineers chimed in. After fully installing, slowly driving around the block to get everything settled, torque down. CV look fine. No issues that i can see. Had one rattle in the rear over bumps. Found...

    I actually thought about color matching the chrome, but it has really grown on me.

    A few ReadyLift questions

    I know back when I had my gen 4 ram, i put a 2.5" lift on it. Stock tires were around 32" or so. Afternlift I put on some 295's which are roughly 33". It did change my mpg. Not horrible tho. I think once you deviate from manufacturers stock size, even if you go 1 size bigger, it affects the mpg.

    A few ReadyLift questions

    I have just over 5k miles. So it's not even broke in yet. I will remeasure after alignment. I agree that it will settle a little once aligned.

    A few ReadyLift questions

    Now one thing I notice. With strut installed, but not torqued. Even with a jack under LCA, it wont compress at all. So the UCA and steering knuckle almost touch the coil. That will move out once the tire is on and on ground, correct?

    A few ReadyLift questions

    Ok. I'll give it another go and try to install with top hat. 25.5" +/- .25 will keep it withing specs for CV axle angle correct? Would that be the max measurement?

    You are correct. You need the flair set. It happens. Depending on where you bought them, should be able to exchange.
