I have a '16 Ram 1500. I put the Readylift upper control arms on my truck. I had the Rancho Quicklift shocks. But changed to the Bilstein 5100's. I will be installing Mevotech lower control arms. And will be switching to Eibach shocks and springs. I have a Ranch Hand Legend bumper. Which is 250#. On the back, I have the ICON springs with Rancho 7000 shocks. To be replaced by ICON 2.0 shocks with a 2" spacer. For the track bar, I have a Carli bracket. If I were starting with a new Ram 1500 truck. I would use the new Readylift kit, or AEV. I was impressed with how just changing the upper control arms. How much the handling improved. I like a polyurethane bushing rather than rubber.
That’s a great setup and just looks awesome 👍🏼 How’s the ride now? Feel more difference from stock, more stiff? And curious 3.5 Readylift should enough for the job, why use bilstein 5100?
Great video.Looks nice! I have a question about what you would recommend for my 14' crew cab Ram Cummins with a 68RFE. I bought it new and it has about 42k on it now. Since new it has always had a shift flair when it goes into 3rd like it has an extra gear. It also does it sometimes from 4th to 5th. If I'm pulling a heavy load it is not as noticeable. I saw Revmax makes a transmission valve body but I was curious if there is something less expensive and/or an easier remedy. Thanks!

That 6'4" bed and the lift makes for a nice balance. Looks like a 2500 with a 1500 body.
A little forward rake looks just fine
I agree completely
why lower the bilstein to install a spacer? why not just repalce the upper control arm and leave the bilstein on 4 ?
those billsteisn are badass shocks i had those ones on my 2012 1500 smooth ride while staying level was nice
Man I could of sworn in the rear those coil holders went on the bottom, not the top?
100%

I think this is a very nice build it's a perfect height I do like a little factory rake but it's a little bit higher in the back that I would want 👍
Yeah if he didn’t have the heavy duty coils it would sit a bit lower in the rear!

What’s the wheel and tire setup?
What size wheels you have on?
Why waste your money? Carli or thuren or nothing. At least they offer coilovers for the newer trucks.
Where are you guys getting those Rally Cross style mudflaps? Are you making them yourselves out of material or buying them?
They are easy to get up here in Canada. They are called Husky Liners. I assume you should be able to find them online.
Looks the same before and after tho, maybe cause it already had coils
Ready lift suggest a max of 20x10 wheel with a 3.5" lift does this truck rub? I much rather 22's :)
A 14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28 by say 10 by say -10 with say a 35 is all the same lol
That's a good looking truck! To bad it's a gasser!
Ya eco diesel would be cool too
