What did you do to your Ram today???

Add the RC 2” level strut and only put the top hat on it, not the spring loader. Your ride will be much smoother. I just installed the 2” level strut from RC and it’s a night and day difference from the stock struts, it glides ride over bumps

Need it for my tires. Rubs any lower than I am now

No I know that lol I’m saying replace your stock struts with the 2” level struts from RC. and the only thing you’ll add on to that is the top hat. So that way you’ll still get your 3.5”, probably more, out of the setup. Spring loaders make the ride very stiff

Because right now you’re running the stock struts, 2” spring loader, and a 1.5” top hat. So replace the struts and spring loader for a strut that’s already going to add 2” and just put on the top hat

Yea my wife isn’t that happy right now but you’ll notice a huge different. I just did a little test run over some very rough pavement, I was driving at around 40mph, you could hardly tell there was any bumps

Lol..... I pickup my mods from ups or FedEx and install when she's not around. I'm lucky she doesn't read the forums

Kooks 1-3/4" SS HEADERS & GREEN Y-PIPE. 2019-2020 RAM 1500 5.7L. CONNECTS TO OEM sku:3520H230

My buddy and I put the new Kooks headers and green cat y-pipes on my 2019 RAM Rebel. The install was fun and wasn't too hard either. Started at 10:30 am and finished by 2:30 pm, so about 4 hours total. The most time consuming part was putting the bolts and tightening them on the headers. Took about 30 min to remove the stock exhaust manifold and y-pipes. The only hard part was tightening the bottom middle header bolt on the driver side. Super tight area to get hands in and patiently tightening it little at a time. Also I decided to use the stock header gaskets because of the extra heatshield material and cause the truck is brand new, but probably should of used the gasket that came from kooks cause the stock gasket made tightening the bolts harder cause of the lack of space to work. After the headers were installed the rest of the pieces were easy to install and was a breeze. After the install it definitely made the truck sound even more alive accompanied with my Mopar cat back exhaust and Mopar RAM Air cold air intake. What's even better, no tune or modifications needed, everything was bolt on. No check engine lights and the truck drives even better then before.

Recently installed the Lock’er Down rear in floor and console safe. For the console safe I added the electronic lock option. For the in floor safe I added the outside spray to protect against corrosion, Abloy lock, motion activated led light, and custom dense foam interior. I’ll be posting a video and more info later, but here are some pictures for now. Love their products and the customer service is second to none!

Ordered some plastic plugs I found here on the forum to fill the bumper holes. Painted with touch up paint. Install tomorrow.

Purchased a set of ORP strut assemblies off a member here for a great price. Then switched out the stock shocks for 5100s and added a 1/2" top hat spacer. Did this all for a customer who has since not paid up. So, I slapped them on my Rebel to see how they fit and I gotta say I'm seriously debating on installing the BDS 4" kit as these shocks ride SOooooo much better than the stock Rebel Bilstein shocks. May rock this till BDS releases 4" coilovers.

Possibly the first Rebel with 5100s:

35" Ridge Grapplers. The 5100s will not fit with the Rebel spring seat. So, you at a minimum need a spring seat from an ORP shock or standard suspension shock. I didn't check to see if ORP and Rebel share the same spring. But, can check later today for you.
