give you a shit ton of credit.... no air tools, no million dollar electric tools, just a plug in impact that is affordable, and hand tools... YOU THE MAN!
Thanks for the support! I try to keep it as simple as possible for these videos. My camera had a mind of its own on this one but hopefully it isn't too distracting 👍
Thanks man, you just saved me at least $400 on an install. Just for everyone's reference, I'm not a mechanic but I'm pretty good with a wrench (I'm an engineer). I did this install by myself over a weekend in my driveway with only hand tools. Installed the rear on Saturday, took about 3 hours. No real issues there, getting the fender liners in/out was probably the toughest step. Installed the front on Sunday, took about 5 hours. I did some steps out of order and had to take everything apart and start again a couple of times, but once I figured out that first side the other was easy. The toughest part about the front is cutting the factory bump stops off or getting the shock back up inside the spring. It takes a bit of twisting, turning and forcing it in to make it through the hole. Wouldn't have felt comfortable enough to do it on my own without this video.
Nice video man! I actually just removed my factory air ride from my 13 sport this weekend. It was failing too much and I just decided to convert to steel coils. It’s crazy how different the front-end is on my 4x4 compared to your 2wd.
Thanks Dalton! Yeah I had a 6" lift on my 09 4x4 1500 and like you said completely different setup with the shock/strut for the cv shafts on the 4x4. Rear is same though which I'll be posting next 👍
Great video. Wish i would have completed this myself but i thought it was harder. I paid 400 to have a shop complete my lowering installation. Great job and video
Hey, just updating you on the vibration I was telling you about at high speeds. Family took in to the dealer they did a road force balancing and yeah its 95% better. They told me my rear tire are bad. Just letting you know and thanks for your help.
Man thanks for this video bro!! Super helpful and detailed, I just swapped my stock springs to the beltech 2/4 and this was really helpful!!! Saved me a lot of time
I’m looking to do the same to my truck but mine is a 2wd 3.6l v6 I can’t find if the 2/4 drop kit will fit mine I’m guessing everything is the same except for the engine
Awesome vid just quick question what type Of bump stops did you use after you cut the original ones out? And are they necessary to have those Bump stops after putting the lowering springs?
I have a 16 Ram Sport. Looking at the 2/4 drop but curious if using a spring compression tool would eliminate disconnecting ball joints and tie rod ends?
Question, so basically all the kit is 4 shorter springs? I always have been a lifted truck guy, now i bought a ram 1500 and trying to go your style. And i dont know what pieces or kit do i need.
Bro, I have the same truck u should do a episode series of taking one lucky winner, and doing some mods to his or her truck for a special on your show ,mabee a series of 5 episodes...doing small mods ,nothing crazy, bro do u know how big........that would be
Do you know if they make a 2/2 kit for these trucks? (I know this is an old video sorry about that) but looking to lower my truck just a little bit but also keep that front end rake (I like the way the rake looks personally) cause I intend to still drive it daily and also haul/tow quiet a bit. Just figured I would ask. Thanks for any information you may have. My truck is a 4x4 by the way
@@abelscaliber7969 To line up the rear axle and have correct the pinion angle, you have to change out the shocks and also install the Rear Control Arm Brackets.
