    Any of you guys have done 6112's in the front ?

    You won't need UCA's if you keep your height at 2", past 2 is up to you. from what i've read the Mopar BJ seems to angle down a tiny bit more but they're not different than the standard UCA's everybody have ? or perhaps is just camera angle? Most aftermarket UCA's should have an offset built...

    Any of you guys have done 6112's in the front ?

    They're not race shocks per se so they're not in the performance level with a Fox 2.5 Coilover for example. They have more displacement than a Fox 2.0 CO though so on a heavy truck like our RAM's the 6112's will perform a little better than a Fox 2.0 Coilover. Fox 2.5 CO's have much better...

    Air vs coil suspension

    This. I sold my 12 Jeep GC Overlander because I grew up tired of having to deal with the air system. Got it fixed 2 times under warranty then it broke outside of the warranty and holy cow they wanted more money for the compressor hoses and air shocks than why you’ll pay for performance race...

    Tie rod Fell Off?

    Yep, they have to pop them out from that mount right where your nut went missing.

    Tie rod Fell Off?

    That's your tied rod, whoever did the install forgot to properly secure/torque the nut down. You should have every bolt/nut checked just in case.

    3.5” Readylift (customizing) 2019-20 Ram Rebel

    Yes, anything that get rid of the big spacer you have at the top will be light years better since you have a 4x4 truck and even more if you're going to be using the truck offroad. If you need a little extra lift boost, then use the 1/2" top spacer. At least with that you still keep your CV's...

    3.5” Readylift (customizing) 2019-20 Ram Rebel

    Nothing wrong with that stance. Do you have a spare 35 tire with the matching wheels ? Put that in your truck bed and should be enough to drop your rear about 1/2" lol. if it's not enough, then add a steel bumper. Sounds funny but the factory coils doesn't seem to hold much weight before they...

    Clayton Offroad 2.5" Jeep Gladiator Springs on 2020 Rebel

    I'll let you know when I get home. I don't remember my stock length but I went 1" longer with the Icon coils, and then 2" longer when I did the Clayton's. I'm running the core +2 links.

    Clayton Offroad 2.5" Jeep Gladiator Springs on 2020 Rebel

    That's where i'll put a panhard relocation bracket if we had one for just 2" lift. On the axel side. That's why i haven't/didn't cared much for the Carli bracket. Glad to see how FCA addressed that in the new trucks. Thanks again for the pics. I'm learning a lot about the 5th gen suspension :)...

    Rear spring spacers

    Correct, the geometry past 3" tipically goes to hell factory CV's get munched up quicker, factory UCA's BJ can pop , factory UCA's can hit your springs, etc. Seems to be about the same across most IFS applications that use factory style A arms. I've lifted Toyota Tacomas and FJC, Nissan Xterra...

    Rear spring spacers

    Isn't that what the Readylift kit does, 3.5" using spacers ? And they have a note in their website regarding that kit: Not for offroad use. Don't exceed 22" from center of the hub to fender etc. So why install a 2" top spacer that is physically over extending you strut lenght by 2" and on top...

    Rear spring spacers

    The spacer won't be going anywhere but how is the spring placed in the lower seat without the locator ? Is it just sitting on top of the spacer ? are you sure the spring won't move ? or perhaps it has its own locator as well ? (i don't see it the pic so i'd think it'll be ok if the spring can...

    Clayton Offroad 2.5" Jeep Gladiator Springs on 2020 Rebel

    Awseome, Ty. So this the level with the panhard and your stock ORP springs ? Can you do me a favor and snap one more pic similar to this to check how the panhard angle looks like after lift ? Carli offers a panhard relocation bracket for the 4th gen RAM but didn't address that on the 5th gen...

    Fox 2.5 coilovers install on 2020 Rebel

    Looking from the picture above the adjuster is pretty much the same thing I have with Kings The difference seems to be the Reservoir hose location so I think you guys can do this without taking the CO out of the truck. You’ll run into same issues I ran to (see pics below) I used this video as...

    Fox 2.5 coilovers install on 2020 Rebel

    You don’t have to remove the coilovers to adjust them, I think the Fox 2.5 adjuster is similar to King so lift the front and let the wheels droop in the air, remove the wheels in full. Loosen up the pinch bolt (one full turn) then turn the adjuster clockwise. Every one full turn in your adjuster...

    Fox 2.5 coilovers install on 2020 Rebel

    It's not bad there is 3.15" droop left in the shocks. You're almost in the middle of the shock stroke as you have 8.8" of travel so your shocks will be ok in current config, you have 5.65" uptravel to absorb impacts, and the shock is not close to topping out at ride heigh Plus if you add some...
