Well, got the balancers installed and completed a quick 40 mile test drive.
I'll admit, i was a bit skeptical for sure. However, there was a VERY noticeable difference in how much smoother it was.
At 55psi front and rear, everything is suprisingly smooth and quiet.
Highly recommend these...
It varies wheel to wheel and truck to truck obviously.
They have quite a few different models and styles to fit a bunch of different applications.
The ones they suggested for my application was all 4 being the same, the part they offer for the front of an F550.
Will be installing them today i...
Based on the recommendations of several experienced friends, i am trying the Centramatic Balancers. Honestly never even heard of them until a couple months ago
Yeah, Buckstop makes some full coverage flares and most of the parts going on the truck are Buckstop. I just don’t care for the lines and think they look way too 80s ish, especially they way they mount. Not a fan. Although MIGHT end up being only option.
DAMNIT!! Why did you tell me that...
1-They don’t offer then for 2019+ yet and no ETA
2-They’re less than an inch wider than these stock ones.
The 5500 stock flares are quite a bit wider than the 2500/3500 stock flares
Not sure if I can attach a phone pic via my phone on here, but I’ll try, here’s kind of straight on.
Issue is, I’m still waiting on the adjustable track bar so the tire will be 1/2-3/4” further out then in this pic when it’s all squared up and aligned
Put the stock flares back on.
Although not full coverage, and custom ones will eventually be made for full coverage, i dont want to bother my friend that will be making them until things calm down a bit.
Will some reforming, and trimming in the rear, these should get me by for a little bit:
Thanks! Gorgeous setup yourself sir! I have the Buckstop Outback Bumper on the way as well!
Yes, lots of new weird quirks with the 2019+
Right now trying to get the TPIS system squared away has become my biggest chore. Still looking at options and ideas.
Thanks. This is a 3" in the front and 2" blocks in the rear (for now)
Yeah, it is kind of weird. A driveshaft spacer is included in all the 2018 and older kits, and i assumed it was for the 2019+ kit.
When i got the kit and their wasn't a spacer, i called up Suspension Max. They told me the...
Are you set on 19.5s?
I got a set of Buckstop 20x11 for my build (Ram 5500) and the quality is amazing and they've been around 20+ years.
Took exactly 3 weeks to arrive from day or order
Thanks. Yeah, the truck has a TPIS system and I got the sensors in the wheels already. But it’s having issues getting into relearn mode because it’s looking for the other 2 wheels. I haven’t given up yet and confident I can figure something out on that end.
Yeah, the shop contacted Conti...
Looks NICE and clean! Do the Arctic Tern hatches come with those hatch holders? Those are slick!!
For the love of all things holy, please for the love of humanity stop using square headed fasteners!!! :)
