What did you do to your Ram today???

Rides great. If anything, it's a touch more firm than the factey ORG shocks.
Interesting, my truck is a little nose high whenever I put anything in the bed so I’ll drop down to setting 4 in the coming weeks. I knew setting 4 was the way to go!
 
Lol that was close 😬
Lol, it can’t get much closer. It rubs the weather seal at the top of the door. I don’t know what maniac built a garage with 14 foot ceilings that I can put a lift in but has such a low garage door.
 
Any updates on the drivability?
Over very light bumps it’s a tad rougher than stock. However, I would rate the overall ride is better than stock and the manners of the suspension are much more well-behaved than stock. Eibach really did a good job with the valving on the shocks. I was waiting to do something like this before getting an upgraded rear sway bar and I don’t think I need to do it now since I don’t tow. In addition, my E load range tires make this thing feel like it hugs curves. I will be making a thread with a bunch of pictures of my install.

With all that being said, if Kelderman comes out with a bolt on air suspension for lifted trucks, I will probably take this off and install one of those just because I love good air suspension so much. This is the first truck I’ve owned (so far) that I haven’t installed air suspension on.
 
Yesterday. Got rid of the chrome halogens for night edition halogens. Led's are nice but i dont wana spend an arm and a leg if a led goes out on them sealed units.

Looks good, and I hear ya. If one of my led headlamps go bad, I'll. Probably just gut them both and retrofit some projectors in them. After reading the fine print, no lighting is covered by my extended warranty. I could build a system that destroys the output on these for about 350 bucks vs the cost of one of these.

If I had yours, I'd have already retrofitted some projectors in them.

Hmm I wonder how much stiffer the suspension is then mine with the spacer lift. You do the rear springs already too? Post some pictures when you can.

Don't jinx me. I just got the truck .

I think a mini h1 or one of the newer led projectors would fit nicely in oem led housings. Hard part would be fabricating the back of the headlight to accept them.. Theoretically, if you installed led projectors, you could just seal it all up.

Put the front end back together.
Only thing left is the LED lights and i might not get them made until well into winter. Sooo.
its funny, making the lights dosn’t faze me,
but tieing into the trucks wiring freaks me out.View attachment 109374View attachment 109375View attachment 109376View attachment 109377
That grill looks good and I like it much better without the 4 amber lights. The TRX doesn't have lights in the grille, so I'm not sure why they included them. Are you going to mount the RAM letters? I think it might look better with the letters installed.

I did everything except a real alignment. When I’m not inebriated, I’ll post the thread with all the pictures
 
i am rebuilding the letters to include white LED’s.
i will document my attempted electrics.
and post progress….
