Nice stance!! Why didnt you use lowered springs or a lower a-arm kit instead of heating the springs? I so wanna do another lowered Ram. Good luck, post lots of pics!

That looks awesome... now it needs a toneau cover and a roll pan and you'll be truckin' :rolf It does look good though!

lowered trucks kick ass, as you never see any older rams lowered.
Not bad for a daily

I had Belltech nitro drop shocks for my fronts and they didnt last too long but I had gone with a lowered control arm and spring. I think I used KYBs for the rear and those held out for over 6 years before they needed to be replaced and we towed with it. I believe I used suspension techniques for all of the parts though...damm that was a loooong time ago.

I gotta whore it out again since the miss the snot out of it!!

I know! i looked on the internet for 94-02 4/6 lowered rams and found two! with the exception of yoo's. which I do like!:shades sucks you got rid of her..

I ordered the front springs today. it was like $96 shipped to my door from streetpros.com. thats where I got the flip kit also. if you dont see what your looking for call them they have it!

as for the roll pan I got a steel one from stylin concepts and its getting painted:thumbsup thats the reason for no bumper.

I have to cut the bed liner to fit a toneau. I'd like to get a access roll cover because I still haul my bikes in the bed, the last thing im doing to this for awhile is tinting the windows, either 10 or 15% havent decided. my dads got 15 on his red duramax and it looks good but still seems like it should be a little darker haha

I did the Styling concepts rolled pan and added a hidden hitch with flip down plate as well. I got a great deal on a fiberglass toneau lid but that thing weighed a TON!! Cant wait to see the final product.
