Yes, I have removed small amounts from the spindle and need to remove a little more. I am getting 1 1/2 turns both directions. I believe stock is 1 3/4 turns in both directions. Make sure you have all the weight on the truck to remove in the correct location. I drive mine pretty hard and have not seen an issue to this point. I have put about 4k miles on with kit.Did you lose any turn radius with the IHC kit? I just installed mine right now and i only get one full steering wheel turn. Maybe it'll correct after it's alignment tomorrow.
Makes sense. I wish I had a lift so I can see where 8t makes contact. I removed the turn stops but i barely get a full turn of the steering wheel. You said you get another half. That's awesome. It drives like a boat right now. .Yes, I have removed small amounts from the spindle and need to remove a little more. I am getting 1 1/2 turns both directions.

Did you do 3/5 or 4/6? Mine rides good. Stiffer than stock.Makes sense. I wish I had a lift so I can see where 8t makes contact. I removed the turn stops but i barely get a full turn of the steering wheel. You said you get another half. That's awesome. It drives like a boat right now. .
I did a 3/5. Mine rides so good now with this kit. I'm planning on ordering some bilsteins for the front. It rides really good. I was able to get 1 1/2 turn to the right. But i can't get the left side. I only get one full turn to the left.Did you do 3/5 or 4/6? Mine rides good. Stiffer than stock.
That is the same thing I had with the steering. I did the Bilstein shock and spring combo on mine and I am very happy with it. I did the Helwig sway bar but went back to stock sway bar. The fondly thing I am thinking about is going to QA1 shocks for the rear, not real sure at this point. ?I did a 3/5. Mine rides so good now with this kit.

Still happy with the maxtrac? I'm considering doing the same.2” maxtrac springs in the rear with 1 coil cut. Rides exactly the same as factory, fit perfect.

I had the Maxtrac kit in mine and the hellwig sway bar will not fit at least the 7709 will not. I have an adjustable pan hard bar so with the pan hard drop bracket the sway bar come in contactView attachment 92014
Heres mine on 2/4 drop anyone have issues with hellwig sway bar and maxtrac kit
You mind sharing the wheel and tire specs you are running here? I know they are 24x10, but what wheel offset and tire size are you running? Looks great. Thank you in advance.I have not had any wobble issues. But I do need to correct the camber issue I guess I need a upper control arm I’m not real sure can anyone suggest anything

Yeah the 2wd and 4x4 are the same spring PN.Are the springs the same to lower a 4x4 in the rear to level it?
Oh, dude, don't go there... the only word that comes to mind, is blasphemy!Wanted to see what my Ram would looked liked slammed with rebel wheels.

Don't worry, I was just playing around on Photoshop.Oh, dude, don't go there... the only word that comes to mind, is blasphemy!
100% agree with those shocks being garbage. Not a fan of maxtrac after my 4G RC . Rear shock leaked/dead less than 5k miles.View attachment 88088
Sorry for the late delay! Here’s how it aligned. I feel like a moron too... figured out the shaking. Never bothered to check tire pressure from when the tires shop repaired the wheels and mounted the tires. Turns out, having the front tires at 60psi causes a shake bringing them down to 35 has completely changed the way the truck rides! Just need to figure out new shocks for the rear. The ones that came in this kit are junk!
