My trucks suspension has been rebuilt once at 280 k miles. It drives and steers great. I bought the truck new in 2004 and use original replacement parts. Only a steering brace has been added.
I have personally been to CJC and they were a ton of help. My up grades were PSC box, Thuren, EMF ball joints, OEM pitman arm and t-link. What a huge improvement. All of these up grades are in fact true and worth the money. Thank you guys for all of your input and help.
Great Video and info. So glad to hear you say a steering stabilizer is needed. So much misinformation on the internet about a tight front end will solve the issue. Newsflash, any brand new vehicle can and will death wobble under the right circumstances and when they do, it destroys front end parts. So the smart thing to do is rebuild the front end and put on the best steering stabilizer set up you can afford and hopefully avoid ever experiencing death wobble. When it happens on the highway at 70+ mph and your truck levitates across lanes and everything inside is suspended in the air you'll wish you spent the $$.
Steering stabilizer does not prevent death wobble or stop it that’s not its job. This kind of info is false and misleading. What prevents death wobble is in fact tight pets like ball joints track bar bushings and steering joints. The steering stabilizer is there to take up shock in the steering system.
A steering stabilizer will mask death wobble, but you're spot on that it never fixes the root cause. That said, we always recommend having one as it reduces steering feedback and does help protect the rest of the front end parts.
It's crazy to me, I have 2 3rd gen 5.9s and neither of them have ever had death wobble. Must be some really shitty alignment shops, or terrible maintenance. I also live in the north east with some of the worst roads in the country. Had DW on an old XJ Jeep of mine before, but never on these trucks.
To be totally honest, we'd say all of the new Ram, GM, and Ford trucks do fine stock, but the front end parts all start failing similarly with off road usage and or larger tires. They just really weren't designed for it, so the aftermarket steps in with better solutions.
Carli Suspension 2014 + Ram 2500 Fox 2.0 Leveling system-air ride continues to be sold out. Would you please suggest a comparable shock option for this same leveling system?
You can actually run the normal 2500 level shocks, but the air specific tuned shocks are waiting on development and production as Carli swaps from Fox to Carli-SPEC.

@@Sdukes001 idk man, never seen a superduty that needed a whole axle reinforcement so it don’t break in half 🤷🏻
@@powerwagon3731is it on 37s or go fast off road?
@@TheGreatestShowman69these are only upgrades to keep the truck together running big tires and getting used off-road.

Parts not pets autocorrect always trying way to hard.

It's really just lack of maintenance at the end of the day.

yall should try bad axe t-style
We have a sample here we're putting through the paces! We always like to test everything first hand before adding it to the front end upgrade page.
Can you do a 2nd gen version of this video? If you haven’t already
They have a few videos, just from a couple years back if you scroll down a little while

@@CJCOffRoad Thankyou!!
You guys sell PSC with hydraulic assist that is on the carli service managers truck?
If you want we can absolutely get it for you! Just call or email us.
Do you know by chance why carli doesn’t design suspension kits for Chevy and gmc 2500 trucks?
They have always focused on solid axle vehicles, but we keep pushing for expansion in to the GM market.
Oh, don’t worry, you can make an hour long video. We’ll watch it lol

Still interested in the previous Blue Ram from NM….. available?
Long sold sadly!
😳
The video is about upgrading a truck that has been lifted and huge off road tires, not a stock truck!
We have options for all setups! There's no reason a stock truck can't run nicer than stock parts.
I got a ton of play but I am too shy to send a picture of my rusty mess lol
Send it! That's what almost all of these trucks look like now, and sadly it's just a fact of life with an older truck!
