I decided on a mechanical locker even though the electric ones were less than half the price. Hopefully it will be alright, if need be with locking hubs there will also be the 3wd option. I'll provide feedback on if it was a good idea or not once my front end is done.

Just looking to get some feedback on some people who have actually run with a front mechanical locker on a vehicle. I am about to do a front end refresh on my 06 Ram and would like to add a traction device while at it. The preference is to keep it simple without any wires or air running into...

Is there any information on what you are looking to buy?

Do you have any experience with Sumo? I have no experience with them, have been thinking about the possibility of running them in the front to help with the load. Had Timbren SES on a F250, and those seem to be more suited for a pavement going work truck.

Yes you have it right KYB MonoMax shocks, for the value they are not bad. Also it's fairly rare to see commodity items like shocks made in Japan anymore.

With that size of tire be ready to upgrade the front end parts on any modern RAM if you plan on going remote places down south. I don't have huge tires on my 2500 3gen, but with a small Lance it adds an additional 600-700 lbs onto the front end. For extended fuel tanks on a gas vehicle you...

They are installed, it was not possible to compress the leaf springs by much since there's no deck, camper or anything of significant weight to see how well they articulate. I was wondering if any one had any experience if any aftermarket active auto leveling systems on helper bags and how they...

There two spring retainers on top and one large one on the bottom. The bottom one can easily be removed and bag tucked up, similar to manual sway bar disconnects if needed. Sorry brackets are still wet, Below is in a car, but the same Mount is retained Lower bag Mount Lower retainer

The centerline of the bag is about half an inch forward of the axle centerline, you can see the Firestone mounting holes and the new hole. If needed I can add a stop on the axle to keep the bracket from rotating.

Here is one side with the mounts modified for the new bag. The location ended up more inboard due to the center air fitting location compared to the offset Firestone bag.

How well do the daystar cups hold up and do the bags center well? I was originally going to install the cups but switching out the bags was more economical than the set of cups. I do not plan on using the full travel at the moment, just want to make sure there was room to spare when changing...

It seems 8+ is possible with those bags, the factory 4wd drive spacers were removed to allow for some more up travel. I am also trying to get a better ride loaded and unloaded. We will see if that works out or not, the BMW also used accumulator tanks, but there was just no room for those in...

Its a Dodge RAM, the only one that I know of is Carli, not saying their things are bad, but its $800 and inboard of the frame so there would be interference with my air tank and would get very tight with the extended fuel tank

After having the standard air helper bags and being quite dussapointed in the ride loaded and unloaded, I was looking at some alternatives to the double convoluted bags. In the heavy duty truck world the options all come with a huge increase in physical size plus they are rated at very high...

Im not too sure there, one would need a lot more information to diagnose that one. So are you saying the dashboard lights are flashing like the parking lights are being turned off and on, or are certain indicators flashing? Without knowing everything that went on I would look back at your...

1. Seems to be Positive a brown wire behind the headlight switch, probe the wire behind the headlight switch, with the parking lights on there should be 12v. 2. Connect only the negative, but since you have individual door triggers, they would all need to be tied into the alarm, using diodes...

I'm not too sure about going with a factory option, assuming its similar to some Ford chassis there are parts you can get, but then the modules would require reprogramming. On older vehicles with a throttle linkage it was not too bad, just a brake switch, wire up a vss sensor, mount up a...

Zus Cameras also offers an app for Apple Products, I am not too sure how well it works on apple, but on the Android version you do need to switch over to the app manually and is not automatic as a wired in camera.

Nice, I am still contemplating on which traction device up front truetrac or e-locker while doing the ball joints, steering upgrades and free hub kit.

Not too sure if they company still makes custom wheels, for the California people it might be worth while checking in or calling the following Chariot Spring Co 17866 Valley Blvd Bloomington, CA 92316 (909) 357-8195 They use to make custom steel and aluminum wheels.
