    Several videos/retailers say this DR-2 kit is for 4wd only, but it does actually work for 5 gen 2wd. Installed on my 2022 1500 2wd Lonestar. The hardest part is getting the lower strut bolt back into place. Lots of prying to get the holes to line up.

    I installed this kit on my 2023 ram yesterday. It took me two hours, with no problems. Still has a stock ride to it. Had to raise the front end, because I also added Airlift bags and with the five pound minimum of air required the truck was nose diving, this kit made the truck look great and I got more ground clearance. Awesome video!

    Thanks for the video helped big time. Fist side took two hours, second took one hour. I had a hard time with the first strut but ultimately just needed to use a big pry bar underneath to move it around with some muscle. The rest was smooth sailing.

    Made an attempt at this today…. Man… hitting the the spindle to release the ball joint on the upper control arm did not work and resulted in me having to stop and leave it for another time. I’ll try again when I get Thors hammer. Also, getting the strut to line back up with the hole to send the bolt through too forever…. It ended up in 3 people having to team up and get it done 😅

    • @AmericanTrucksRam
      @AmericanTrucksRam  Рік тому +1

      Eibach certainly makes some great stuff! Full replacement struts/coilovers will always give you better performance than spacers like these... Spacers will always be MUCH cheaper though! All comes down to choice and what you're looking for. -Zach

    question. I purchased adjustable Bilstein shocks from a friend's recommendation. I was told that with adjustable shocks I could remove the front spacer blocks and use the shock adjustment to raise the front of the truck. ( 2018 Dodge ram 1500.) My mechanic is insistent that the spacer blocks still be present to accomplish the truck "leveling", I am not concerned with "lifting" the truck but rather just level the rake. Love to hear some feedback. The whole reason a purchased the Bilstein shocks was to eliminate the spacer blocks and level the truck THX

    • @manuelescandon4397

      remove the spacer blocks and use just the Blistein, the much better way.

      Generally, what affects mpg is the larger wheel and tire combo that many add at the same time.
