I appreciate the explanation!The Timbren SES is specifically designed for heavy towing/heavy loads and are incredibly stiff. Essentially they make it to where your truck fully rides on the bump stops when hauling heavy loads so it doesn’t squat a ton. However for off road use it’s absolutely the opposite of what you’d want because it limits nearly all up travel and will cause harsh bottom outs on every bump.
Mine arrive today.... Now just trying to figure out if I need the 19mm or 21mm Suspension Maxx front sway bar links.
I believe a majority, depending how lifted (Struts) come with new bump stops. When using spacers it doesn't matter. Bump stops are mounted on the strut.
i didnt get new bump stops and i got 4 inch lift with bds kit
You're using OEM struts and spacers with the BDS Kit, unless you opted for the coilovers, which have them. Travel stays the same.
ahhh ok yes i have the fox 2.5 … yea i feel like my front bump stops are alittle soft lol
If you're bottoming out with coilovers, then adjust them tighter with the DCS Adjuster. Otherwise you might need them tuned to certain specs for your driving.
gotcha maybe i need harder spring lol heavy little diesel
Might be worth calling BDS and asking. I'm not sure how much heavier the diesel is compared to the Hemi, if significant enough. Definitely don't want to mess up the coilovers. Pricey.
Even with my hemi I feel like the coils are too soft so I’d imagine with the ecodiesel you’d definitely want heavier rate coils for sure
They take approximately 5 seconds to install haha. Just pull the old ones out and pop the new ones in. They don’t require any tools or anything, just your hands and less than a minute of work
Yeah I won't do until I figure out my Tire/Wheel setup and do the suspension and Core4X4 all at once. Trying to decide cheapest stick with OEM 22 and 285/55 or bite the bullet and all new wheels tires in 20's most likely. Tires are crazy priced anymore. Got mine yesterday also.They take approximately 5 seconds to install haha. Just pull the old ones out and pop the new ones in.

Accutune bumped my springs from the stock 450lb to a 550lb for diesel using my cat scale ticket weights with a few mods. For what that’s worth using their calculator. Fox 2.5 dsc shocks, with valving tweaks.
i think i will try that but im also wonder if i should wait since im gonna have evilmfg do my long travel with bilsteins 3.0
