When I did my suspension, for the driver's side rear bolt I just loosened the fuel tank straps and dropped it out of the way enough that I could get a hand in there with a ratchet. I had a transmission jack handy for it as well, made it super easy. It might take some doing/stacking 4x4s if you're doing it in the driveway, and you'll probably need a floor jack, but let's be honest, if you're attempting this in your driveway, you've got a way to jack your vehicle up relatively easily.
I snapped a cheap harbor freight 21mm box end off just the right length for those pesky upper shock bolts... broke my wrench, but created the perfect tool for that job.
With the added weight of both bumpers, winch, and armor the Performance Load or Medium coils were the right choice. I don't have the before and after lift hub to fender measurements for this particular build handy.
Back to this video for me, I found out my rear shocks shipped to me are Comfort valved, but you have 3 different offered(just not offered when purchasing the kit) Comfort, long Travel, and longtravel/comfort. Which rear shocks were installed on this ram?
I also have almost triple the threads showing on the bottom of the shock, came like that from factory and i havent adjusted, front end is still raked lower than my rear 2 inch spring
Hell yeah. I called a year or so ago and asked if something like this was in the works.
Also, I have an Ecodiesel if y'all need a test vehicle!!

It technically would work with airride, but you would be deleting the air ride, and you would need an additional rear spring isolator
Nicely done. Learn something new every time I watch your videos. Keep it bro.

Ha! Yes, those often make for a good "modified" tool!
Another good one. Always interesting.
Did you install the comfort springs or performance springs on this truck? What were the hub to fender measurements?

@@Ironman4x4America looks good. I plan on coming by your HQ in the near future to get these installed.

What bumper is the one on the cover picture?
That is our upcoming Raid front bumper for the RAM. Stay tuned...
@@Ironman4x4America it looks good!
Does this also work for 3.6l 2wd??
Our R&D and fit testing is done on the 4WD models. We do not know if the frame is the same across both 2WD & 4WD.
No rear sway bar links?
Not needed in the rear with this 2" lift.
