    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yes, they do call them spring bars, but the result is sway control due to steel on steel friction.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Naturally, but most states are not enforcing existing laws around this type of thing. Also, even with a larger truck, a torsion bar WDH is still safer than towing without one. The torsion bar WDH systems also prevent sway via the friction the bars create at the pressure points. I would always...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    It is necessary for safe travel. You just need to put ST tires on the trailer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Before I upgraded to a Motorhome, I used a WDH. Outside the WDH, the tires were the single most important aspect of towing for both the truck and the trailer. Many travel trailers do not have the best tires from the factory. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cargomaxx HD coils

    Adjust with the ball height. You want the gap for the front tires to be half of what it is with no trailer vs trailer without WDH. So basically put the trailer on the hitch directly and measure first. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just installed trx style grill on my 2021 ram 1500 big horn

    I just installed this grill last weekend. I am also planning to retrofit Surround View cameras and I have figured out what bracket is needed for the front camera mount. It’s actually the same bracket as the OEM TRX grill. Here it is without the camera installed. I have some pics of the install...

    Cargomaxx HD coils

    I would question who adjusted your WDH also. The squat is supposed to be adjust out as much as possible. This is done by measuring the change in tire to top of fender well gap as you adjust the WDH up and down. Once you get the difference to be mostly split, you should have a good balance...

    Cargomaxx HD coils

    Now I am curious if the coils specifically made for the 2019+ are taller to avoid the loss of contact with the isolator?

    2024 Longhorn Rake and Squat

    The front is higher than the rear? That is definitely wrong. I previously owned a 2020 Longhorn and it definitely had a rake to it. The side to side can vary based on the pavement and position you park on. But your rear suspension is definitely sagging. I currently have a 23 Bighorn, and my...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Now I am concerned as to what to do. I don’t have the off-road suspension as far as I can tell. But I didn’t know I had GT resonators either. lol. Stock suspension with 33s is right at 39” height. Which means about 38.5” with the stock tire size. Anyway, I don’t want to use this thread for...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Not trying to get too off topic,but I found a video on YouTube where they installed all 5 sets available from the manufacturer. The two models made specifically for 5th Gen’s both raised the rear 1.5”. I posted this in a thread here for Cargomaxx springs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cargomaxx HD coils

    This thread peaked my interest in this option. I have been "researching" as in searching over and over again. I found a YouTube video from a shop showing the installation of all the CargoMaxx springs on a Ram 1500 DT. They also measured before and after. The results seem a bit different that...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I have done some research on these and the claim is that the HD models always add +1 inch in height. I have not verified that with the manufacturer as it's hard to find data directly from them. Their website sucks TBH. I am considering these heavily.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I haven’t had a dirt bike in years. I also sold my street bike because of the other idiots on the road. Just lost its luster after almost being run down so many times. I should mention that this was also when I lived in Florida. Worst drivers ever down there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    GT Exhaust?

    My 2023 Bighorn 5.7 etorque has the same resonators. I only have the sport appearance package. I have owned a 2020 Longhorn previously and I have mentioned to several people that my 2023 definitely sounds different and has a more pronounced tone. I love it though. I assumed all the 22+ sound...
