I can’t find the links on their website…. Ok fixed length yes, but not adjustable…. Do you have a link ?
EDIT…. I am a dummy, shocker, the adjustables are Hellwig
In that kinda mood today…. Someone talk me out of the ride quality/adjustability and going for that extra inch in the front with the ridetech coil overs!!
….or don’t talk me out of it !!
Great point on the sway bar links…. My plan is to wait until after install to see what I could use for the links (front and rear) and either dive into my parts bin or potentially fab something up
I have to believe there really isn't a big market for it…. Lets face it, in the lowering universe, there are far more low and slow, or perhaps only fast in a straight line types than people want to romp on it through the twisties…. For the latter crowd you see people fully upgrading their chassis….
Great thought…. Since the truck has over 100k miles I was going to replace the tie rods, and should check/replace all of the bushings… that always makes a tremendous difference
Appreciate this heads up, I have resisted any exhaust mods until the suspension is done to ensure there is room…. I am contemplating a muffler delete (keeping cats and resonators), when I install the BD manifolds
Also, has anyone upgraded their front sway bar? If I retain the stock struts with the control arm 3” lowering alone I do beleive firming up the front end may make a difference…. Though I cannot say how much at this point….
My thought process on the rear was as I am “trying” to get a 5” drop, and to get the 6” bags will have either the ability to go lower, but will also have slightly more air capacity/pressure at 5”…. but as with you 4” may be where I end up as ultimately ride quality and retention of towing...
well, a day later and after a great conversation with Steve at Timbergrove I am going to pull the trigger on either the 6 or 7 in CRMs…. The plot thickens !
I had no idea this was as common as it appears to be…. Had it happen earlier this year…. The repair kits listed are kinda fugly, and I am certainly way out of warranty… someone in the thread gave me an idea (stuffing a little piece of paper in the hole… I may try melt some plastic on the shaft...
Would love to hear more about these…. Especially if there is a wireless option, I tow multiple trailers and this would be beneficial!
Edit: I have checked out visionworks, and while they are wireless I will not be mounting a separate screen
Usage plays a big role as well…. For the amount of time the majority of 4wd’s actually spend in 4wd either lifted or lowered it probably doesnt matter that much….
But, if you are applying power when at extreme angles, have large tires stuffed or drooped and/or the wheels cranked to one side...
To be fair, I have not seen one first hand myself, but as I was taking to IHC about their 3” lowering spindles they send me this picture of a Ram equipped with them sitting on vehicle weight, and while its always hard to tell from one picture, especially with the boots on, I feel like these...
Picked up a set of the BD Diesel manifolds myself, somewhat preemptive strike, its not bad, but the leak is there, figure it will be easier to do when I do the lowering installation
As an addition to this thread, I have been thinking about extended travel CV’s for lowered trucks as well, and had a conversation with a tech at Trakmotive and while they have not specifically tested them on lowered 4wd’s in theory the benefits they provide to lifted trucks also applies to...
It begins…. Kinda
Picked up the IHC upper and lower 3” control arms and their Cut Kit today….
Have not yet decided on the setup for the rear, may pick up a set of 4” coils and see what that looks like with the aux air bags with regards to if there is even room for them back there (and if when...
I decided to create a thread on my research and plans for my 2020 Ram Crew Cab 6’4” suspension…
Not doing this for lack of information that is out here (and other sites), and there are some really great threads on here that go into these changes!! You all know who you are !!
I am no stranger...
