    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    Both of my rears were holding pressure still but, they retracted when I disconnected them from the truck which is an absolute first for me. This really makes me question the valving differences in the shocks meant for air ride suspension. which is why I ordered the w/o air-ride shock so I can...

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    I am more than happy with the 4600's on the rear and am sure I'll be even happier once the matching fronts show up. I pondered the 5100's briefly as I could have sworn I ran them on one of my previous 1500's but all my receipts showed I purchased 4600's. I'm still waiting for my OEM fronts to...

    Ferraiolo1 Ram Sport

    Clean swap, do these throw more light down road? My fogs throw plenty of light, I just wish it was more forward than sideways.

    How’s your 2019 Ram running? Take our poll!

    126,000 miles with no significant issues and still a happy camper. In addition to routine maintenance, I replaced the battery and passenger side exhaust manifold.

    You hold onto the good ones and move on from the bad ones and hope the next one is a good one.

    Full audio upgrade and sound treatment

    I've done some nice installs in my day but nothing compared to this. Your attention to detail is amazing.

    Good info on the Hellwig upgrade as well but I think the 5100's are too stiff for a 2wd. I've...

    Good info on the Hellwig upgrade as well but I think the 5100's are too stiff for a 2wd. I've only got one drive on my rear 4600's but I really like them.

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    So, basically a $300 upcharge to machine the groove in a different spot.

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    I'll do some playing once I have mine changed out and one of the OEM shocks in my hands for comparison. The two biggest concerns I have is if the body of the shock is the same thickness the full length, or at least in the area where we would machine in the second groove and if the ring is spring...

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    Factory installed though, I'm speculating on it's reliability if modified to work...on my daily driver, that sees 25-40K miles a year at almost 90% highway speeds... Just saying, maybe not the ideal test platform...;)

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    It seems straight forward but I just don't know if it's worth the risk to modify something that seems so precarious in the first place. What happens if that clip shears off? Most sites are allowing me to order the OEM shocks today but once I get to the payment portion, they still say...

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    The rears are readily available from multiple sources and I got them installed last night. I went with the same Bilstein 24-228848's that you did. I would have had them installed last weekend but one showed up without the hardware and I had to order a replacement. The ride to work was much...

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    National backorder on the front shocks, no estimated shipping date and they aren't even taking orders to get in line for when they are available. MoparPartsOnline is the only site I've found that would let you actually place an order and they are $369.34/each. As for that groove, I'd love to...

    Yeah, that could be a problem.

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    I'm at 122k miles and experiencing a shimmy that I believe is wheel hop due to worn out shocks. I've got 4600's ordered for the rear but all the Mopar suppliers are showing the fronts as backordered. I'm tempted to order a pair of the 24-329132's just to find out if I can make them work. But...

    Tungsten Re-Opened!

    Any insight on when I can get a Limited or Tungsten without Ramboxes and 4x4?

    I swapped clusters on a truck and approached a dealer about making the new cluster match the original mileage and you’d have thought I was asking them to commit grand larceny. They walked away from the counter and refused to talk to me any further. Legally I can swap the cluster, I just need...

    5yrs, over 120,000 miles and I am just as smitten with my truck as the day I brought it home.

    Proactive brake replacement at 50k? How long did your brakes last?

    I replaced mine at 115K miles. Lot's of pad life left but like you, I had a bit of shaking so I did pads and rotors as part of my 100k mile refresh. I also felt they weren't grabbing as well as they could after an emergency braking moment a month or two earlier to avoid some deer and I had some...

    Dash Lighting Brightness - Far too dim

    The ambient lighting was much better in my 17 RAM than my 19 so I upgraded my ambient LED boards to Paragoptics Blue. Not a cheap upgrade but I love the effect and they are plenty bright enough. I believe they offer it in an RGBW kit now rather than just a single color option. IIRC, the chip...
