{"title":"Suspension Upgrades for Cummins","description":"\u003cstrong\u003eThese products are popular suspension and steering options for your Cummins.  However, to see all of the available options, please select your vehicle application from the top menu and navigate to the appropriate category.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAlright, so you’ve got a heavy duty Cummins powered Ram. How’s it ride? How’s the steering? You know, just because it’s built to haul doesn’t mean it has to ride like a chuck wagon. Furthermore, did you know that for those looking to lift or level their truck, you can actually drastically improve the ride when doing this, instead of making it worse as many aftermarket lift kits tend to do? Well, its all true. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\nBefore we dive into all of this, lets cover some of the basics and how the steering and suspension have evolved over the years on the different eras of Cummins (this discussion is specifically revolving around four wheel drive models). The Cummins powered Ram was first introduced with the 1989 model year and remained until 1993, commonly referred to as a \"1st Gen.\" The suspension on these trucks were comprised of front and rear leaf springs, and really very basic in nature. If you've ever driven a 1st Gen, especially with the original leaf springs that are most likely fatigued and flattened out due to wear and tear, you may have needed a back brace immediately following as you would have felt any crack in the road all the way to your teeth. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe next generation of Rams, dubbed \"2nd Gens\" were released in 1994 and were carried through 2002. This new body style, coupled with a revised 12 valve engine, also received a completely updated suspension. Here, we saw the advent of front coil springs in an effort to improve the ride. The switch over to coils from leaf springs also required the addition of front control arms and a track bar to secure the axle squarely under the frame. Model year 2003 saw the release of the 3rd Gen models with, again, an entirely new body style, engine, and transmission. While the suspension and steering were revised on these models, the basic overall design principle and geometry were relatively the same, just updated to fit the new \"package.\" \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe first big change was actually to the steering in mid model year 2008. In order to best explain the change, lets first cover what the earlier models were equipped with. From 1994-2008, heavy duty Rams had a steering geometry that is commonly referred to as \"Y-Style Steering.\" In a Y-Style configuration, your drag link starts out at the pitman arm and then connects directly to the passenger side steering knuckle. Then, you have a center link that connects from the drag link over to the drivers side steering knuckle. In this configuration, the truck has a pivot point between the two wheels (see below illustration).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"T style\" src=\"\/Images\/t-style-vs-y-style-steering-NEW-4.jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2008.5 models, Ram made the switch to what is now deemed \"T-Style Steering\" that eliminates this pivot point by having the center link extend from knuckle to knuckle, and the drag link tying into it. This upgrade also features more robust tubing, with a substantially larger diameter, delivering even greater strength. Unbeknownst to many, Ram actually had a factory T-Style Steering for a short stint in 1998-1999 and abandoned it for whatever reason.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe question still stands, which is better? In our opinion, as well as most others, T-Style is the best option. Many would also attribute the pivot point on Y-Styles to the infamous \"Death Wobble.\" If you haven't heard of this before, long story short, its an occurrence in which the front wheels are able to move independently of one another, steering towards each other, then away, resulting in a violent shaking of the entire vehicle. So yeah, Death Wobble's a bad thing that you really don't ever want to experience first hand. Really, the only negative of a T-Style Steering is that it results in a steeper angle of the drag link which can cause bump steer. Bump steer can best be described by the quick jerk to the right of your steering wheel after hitting a bump, and it stems from an excessive incline on the drag link.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2010, Ram released their next iteration called the \"4th Gens\" that received yet another face lift. However, in terms of the suspension, it was basically the same as the 3rd Generation Rams. But, and here's a big old but.....for 2013, the 3500's, and only the 3500's, received an entirely new front end that many would argue took some serious design cues from the Ford SuperDuty lineup, which really isn't a bad thing. The highlights of this upgrade were the abandonment of control arms in favor of radius arms and an entirely new steering geometry. The new geometry can't really be deemed a T or a Y-Style as the drag link and center link are not attached to one another. Rather, the drag link comes in and attaches to the top of the passenger side knuckle and the center link attached towards the bottom of the knuckle. Effectively, this eliminates any pivot point but also drastically reduces the drag link angle (hence no bump steer). The following year, the 2500's would also get the same new front end overhaul due to the overwhelming success the 3500's had with it. And here's where Ram sent a tidal wave through the heavy duty pickup market, as along with the new front end, the 2014 2500's were also treated to rear coil springs. That's right, you won't find a single leaf spring on a 2014+ Ram 2500, its all coils, and this was done in a huge effort to improve the ride quality. With rear coils, Ram was also forced to now have rear control arms and a rear track bar, basically meaning the rear was quite similar to the front.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAnd here we are, now that you're completely versed in the major design changes to the steering and suspension of the Rams throughout their lifespan, how can it be improved, and why would you want to? As we mentioned earlier, just because you drive a heavy duty truck doesn't mean it has to ride like one. Further, just because you want to lift or level the truck doesn't mean you have to compromise the ride. Why not make it better? We are huge advocates for installing upgraded components and kits that will not only deliver enhanced off road performance, but also huge gains for the majority of trucks used as a \"truck.\" Whether you haul a fifth wheel, load round bails on a flat bed, or just daily drive to work, there are upgrades that will absolutely deliver a noticeable, seat of the pants feel improvement. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIf there's slop in your steering, Red-Head Steering Gears makes upgraded gear boxes that will tighten everything up. BD-Power also makes steering box braces that will eliminate wandering from the sector shaft. If your suspension is rigid, we offer Carli Suspension kits that will not only level the ride, but make potholes and ruts disappear for the daily driver, or allow you to hit the sand whoops in the dunes if you so choose. When your ball joints are in need of replacing, don't put the same junk back in that will just fail, Dynatrac and Carli both manufacture the toughest joints in the industry that you'll never have to worry about again. In short, if something can be replaced, there's a bullet proof and better built upgrade on the market for it.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nLastly, we get the question on a daily basis, why don't they install these types of upgrades from the factory, especially with the price tags on these trucks nearing the six digit mark? That answer is simple, if they did, these trucks would be even that more expensive with the amount of markup they have in their own components. When you're ready to upgrade your Ram's suspension or steering, we've got the parts and the knowledge to get you the end result you're after.","products":[{"product_id":"bd-sbs-94-02-dodge-1032004","title":"BD Steering Box Stabilizer (SBS) 94-02 Dodge 2500\/3500","description":"\u003cp\u003eBD's Steering Box Stabilizer (SBS) eliminates steering wander and wobble caused by excessive shaft play in the steering box of late-model Dodge trucks.

From there, the ball joints head to an aero-space lube company where a proprietary dry-lube coating is applied to a specified thickness. And of course, they are topped off with an accessible zerk fitting for easy servicing. You'll even get a tube of high quality synthetic grease with your ball joint set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut how did Carli Suspension originally design and create their Extreme Duty Ball Joints? To know how Carli improved it, let’s take a look at the factory. The Factory Ball Joints are made up of a lower ball joint and upper floating king-pin. The upper ball joint is designed as a pivot point determining the axis on which the knuckle will move and thus, only sees a lateral load. The factory lower ball Joint, features a sealed housing, sleeve, pin and boot. The upper cavity stores the grease from the factory and allows the “hat” of the pin to float up and down as the knuckle raises and lowers through the steering cycle. The “hat” of the pin does not make contact with the housing, it only prevents the pin from pulling out the bottom of the housing. As the hat of the pin doesn’t contact, there’s a coated sleeve that isolates the pin from the housing and it’s vertical surface is the only wear surface for the upper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carli Joints are similar in design in that it utilizes the same style of a floating King-Pin upper but with several improvements in design. You’ll notice Carli’s ball joint has a pin and housing, but the “hat” of the pin contacts the housing. This adds a second wear surface to further distribute the load applied laterally to the ball joint while providing the same failsafe as a factory ball joint ensuring the pin cannot be pulled through the bottom of the ball joint housing. Further, there is no sleeve isolating the wear surfaces eliminating the point of failure. The upper cavity’s size is increased to hold a larger grease reserve and the threaded cap both allows access to the cavity and pin if needed and allows servicing through its zerk fitting. Further, the channel in the pin itself provides a path for grease to migrate to the wear surface. At the bottom of the housing, a Viton Seal prevents the environment from entering the ball joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower ball joints are the true ball joints in the AAM design. The spherical lower is a ball and socket design allowing lateral misalignment (unlike the king-pin upper). Because the design tracks the knuckle on an imperfect axis, the spherical lower is required to allow the knuckle to move freely with only a slight vertical travel through its steering cycle. By design, the lower factory joint is a pin isolated from the housing by a nylon material loaded from the top and sealed by a press with a boot to keep out the elements. When this composite liner fails, the ball joint needs to be replaced. It’s the old saying, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarli’s improvement on this design begins with the ability to service the joint. The Zerk fitting is recessed into the top of the joint and protrudes at an angle to be aimed forward and slightly inward to allow access to the fitting without needing to disassemble anything. There are channels machined into the ball surface conducive to grease migration without the use of liners of any kind. At the top, a bronze wear surface preloaded by a disc spring, safety washer and snap ring ensures the ball joints wear surfaces are always held tightly together for optimal performance. Lastly, a rubber seal locks the housing to the pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe next step is masking in which the ball joints are completely masked, with exception to the wear surfaces, and they receive a copper plating. Once plated, the ball joints head to carburizing. The carburizing creates an extremely hard surface with a case-hardness (penetrating depth) of 20-25 thousandths. For reference, another process Carli tried was salt-bath nitride which produced 3 thousandths in a best-case scenario. When the ball joint has completed the carburizing\/heat treat, they’re stripped of their copper masking leaving the entire joint heat treated and the wear surfaces incredibly hard. From stripping, they head to dry-lube where the whole joint is coated with a corrosion resistant gray coating to project the joint while the lubricity of the coating pairs with ant seize and Redline CV2 grease to assist in breaking in the wear surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the event you can somehow wear out these ball joints in your lifetime, you’re protected with the industry’s only ADVANCED REPLACEMENT Lifetime Guarantee. Keep your purchase receipt and know you’re set for the life of the truck. If anything should happen, shoot Carli a video of the play (Excess of .040” vertical or .020” lateral) and your purchase receipt and they’ll have replacements enroute with a call tag to return the defective joints; simple as that. When you receive the new ones, swap them in and send the old ones back with the included call tag.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carli Suspension","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52076930564461,"sku":"CS-DBJP-03","price":940.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0892\/2487\/2301\/files\/CS-DBJP-03-Product-Image.jpg?v=1752689601"},{"product_id":"carli-steering-stabilizer-03-13-ram","title":"Carli Low Mount Steering Stabilizer 03-13 Dodge Ram 2500\/3500","description":"This is a drop-in OEM replacement steering stabilizer for Dodge Ram 2500\/3500.

While the factory unit bearing is non-serviceable and prone to failure, the Free-Spin hub conversion offers ease of maintenance, a much smoother ride, better steering control, greater fuel economy, and longer axle and driveshaft life. Advantages that add up to tremendous cost savings over the life of your vehicle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen a unit bearing fails, the vehicle is often immediately disabled and cannot be driven anywhere until the unit bearing has been completely replaced. That means towing, downtime, expensive dealer repairs and a ruined vacation or lost revenue for a work truck. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor recreational truck enthusiasts, the Free-Spin hub conversion eliminates a weak link that could easily leave you stranded. For commercial truck owners and fleet managers, who rely on their rigs 24\/7 to get the job done, the Free-Spin hub conversion ensures that your trucks are on the road making you money. Improved fuel economy and smoother performance is an additional bonus.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cb\u003eFEATURES \u0026amp; BENEFITS:\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eManual-locking hubs reduce wear and increase fuel economy by preventing parts from rotating constantly during 2WD operation. \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncreases reliability by eliminating troublesome axle disconnect operation. \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLower cost of ownership Å“ Wheel bearings and seals are dramatically cheaper to maintain, and can be easily serviced for longer life, even under severe conditions. \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDramatic increase in axle strength and reliability with 35-spline 1.50\" shafts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eKIT CONTENTS:  \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2 - 8 on 6.5 Dynatrac wheel hubs (customer to re-use rotor) \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2 - Dynatrac Heavy-duty spindle kits \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2 - Dynatrac Heavy-duty, 35-spline, outer axle shafts \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 - Set of Warn Premium manual locking hubs (35-spline) \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 - User serviceable wheel bearings, races and seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nYou have the option for Warn HD manual hubs or Dynatrac's own DynaLoc hubs.  \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDYNALOC HUB FEATURESs:\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e3-times stronger than other locking hubs \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eFirst truly new locking hub design in 20 years \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eGears made from heat-treated, chromoly steel \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eUnique gear tooth design won't disengage under high torque load \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eLow profile knob assembly decreases impact with rocks and obstacles \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eHeavy duty bezel resists impact and scrapes along rocks \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eDefaults to locked position for reliable operation \u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eRequires a 1\/8 of a turn to engage  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cb\u003eIMPORTANT NOTE:\u003c\/b\u003e Dually applications will REQUIRE spacer adapter from Arrowcraft.

With a lighter torsion rate and adjustable arm design, the high speed cornering of your Dodge Ram will be a natural cycle of weight exchange, followed by the suspension \"setting\" in the corner.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTwist It...Let your axle move, the way it was designed to.\u003c\/b\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIMPORTANT NOTE:\u003c\/b\u003e - Torsion Bar may be Black or Silver Zinc; depends on supply-chain availability.

We're stuck with what we have in that regard but thanks to Apex Chassis, another heavy duty ball joint upgrade is available to solve your ball joint woes. Apex Chassis has decades of experience in building quality steering components for heavy duty applications. If you have excessive tire wear, cambered tires or the dreaded death wobble, these ball joints can help alleviate those issues. The upper ball joint is a king-pin style and made to rotate on it's axis and go up and down. The lower ball joint is a true ball joint in the sense of a ball stud resting in a socket (think shoulder or hip joint).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApex has gone through the OE ball joints and found dozens of ways to improve on the ball joints for the Ram HD's.

Years of research went into this kit from top level engineers to deliver you a truck that is as capable traversing back country trails to that secluded cabin on the weekends as it is speeding down the highway getting you to work during the week.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DualSport SC literally takes all suspension and steering geometry into account to ensure you never have to be concerned with bump steer,caster, or suspension bind, as is so prevalent with many of the competitors' cheaper kits. Your truck will handle better than the day you drove it off of the showroom floor, and have the ability to take you anywhere you want to take it. Make your truck work for you, get out, go play in confidence with a truck equipped with only the best.....American Expedition Vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eEngineered for the Real World\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is certainly no shortage of niche truck suspensions in the aftermarket these days, each one designed for a certain type of customer. There are suspensions that can make your truck look like the ultimate desert racer. There are show truck suspensions that provide massive amounts of lift and eye-catching components. There are even truck suspensions that are designed purely for rock crawling. However, what about a well-engineered, properly tuned suspension system that is designed for the people who rely on their truck every day in the real world? What about all the people who want to install larger tires on their truck without sacrificing payload, ride quality or handling?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis was the inspiration behind the AEV 3\" DualSport Suspension System for the 2013+ Ram 3500.\u003c\/b\u003e AEV wanted to design the ultimate \"real world\" suspension system one that allows greater performance off-road, while also improving driver comfort and vehicle handling characteristics on the road and maintaining the factory load carrying capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Formula\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAEV's Ram DualSport Suspension Systems focus on optimizing geometry and custom shock tuning to deliver the best on and off-road performance. This starts in the front end, where Rams come standard with dozens of different spring rates on HD trucks, depending on powertrain, wheelbase, and more, so offering a generic \"gas\" or \"diesel\" spring would have been a huge compromise in ride quality and\/or load carrying capacity. AEV retains the factory front coil springs mated to \u003cb\u003e3\" cast aluminum coil spring relocation spacers\u003c\/b\u003e to achieve the additional lift height. This takes advantage of the full range of factory spring rates and frequencies while still providing the necessary front end lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteering geometry is corrected by way of \u003cb\u003eAEV's High Steer Kit\u003c\/b\u003e, which includes a custom \u003cb\u003eAEV drag link, AEV track bar\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eraised track bar tower\u003c\/b\u003e. This system provides significant improvements to steering precision and handling by correcting the roll center height of the front suspension. Bringing the steering geometry back into factory alignment reduces body roll, bump steer, and roll steer, all major contributors to the loose or sloppy steering and driver fatigue commonly associated with many lift kits. The \u003cb\u003efactory radius arms are repositioned\u003c\/b\u003e for optimal geometry, moving the axle forward 1\".

There are suspensions that can make your truck look like the ultimate desert racer. There are show truck suspensions that provide massive amounts of lift and eye-catching components. There are even truck suspensions that are designed purely for rock crawling. However, what about a well-engineered, properly tuned suspension system that is designed for the people who rely on their truck every day in the real world? What about all the people who want to install larger tires on their truck without sacrificing payload, ride quality or handling?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis was the inspiration behind the AEV 3\" DualSport Suspension System for the 2014+ Ram 2500.\u003c\/b\u003e AEV wanted to design the ultimate \"real world\" suspension system \"one that allows greater performance off-road, while also improving driver comfort and vehicle handling characteristics on the road and maintaining the factory load carrying capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Formula\u003c\/b\u003e - AEV's Ram DualSport Suspension Systems focus on optimizing geometry and custom shock tuning to deliver the best on and off-road performance. This starts in the front end, where Rams come standard with dozens of different spring rates on HD trucks, depending on power train, wheelbase, and more, so offering a generic \"gas\" or \"diesel\" spring would have been a huge compromise in ride quality and\/or load carrying capacity. AEV retains the factory front coil springs mated to \u003cb\u003e3\" cast aluminum coil spring relocation spacers\u003c\/b\u003e to achieve the additional lift height. This takes advantage of the full range of factory spring rates and frequencies while still providing the necessary front end lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteering geometry is corrected by way of \u003cb\u003eAEV's High Steer Kit\u003c\/b\u003e, which includes a custom \u003cb\u003eAEV drag link, AEV track bar\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eraised track bar tower\u003c\/b\u003e. This system provides significant improvements to steering precision and handling by correcting the roll center height of the front suspension. Bringing the steering geometry back into factory alignment reduces body roll, bump steer, and roll steer, all major contributors to the loose or sloppy steering and driver fatigue commonly associated with many lift kits.

The rear is lifted 1”-2” via the customer’s choice of a Progressive Add-A-Pack or Full Progressive Leaf Pack. The Progressive Add-A-Pack maintains load capacity and replaces the factory overload with a 5-Leaf, progressive pack that changes the final rate of the spring pack keeping the rear planted while increasing traction and predictability. The optional Full Progressive Leaf Pack replaces the entire factory leaf spring assembly increasing travel and drastically increasing comfort (when compared to when compared to the factory springs or add-a-pack) throughout the entire usable travel stroke reducing payload to a “light” 3\/4-ton spec. This can be brought back to factory capacity with the use of Carli Long Travel Airbags to achieve the best ride and adjustable rear load capacity!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen pairing added down-travel with the taller ride height, the position of the factory, front sway bar will need to be altered as well. For this, we offer two options (unless 1994-2002, then there’s only one); extended, Sway Bar End Links or the replacement Torsion Sway Bar. The End links are equipped with ½” FK Rod-Ends and in-house machined 17-4 stainless bodies that are extended over stock to reset the sway bar engagement points. Factory pillow-bushings are re-used to assemble the sway bar to the lengthened link. Carli’s optional Torsion sway bar removes the entire factory sway bar assembly replacing it with a torsion bar supported by fabricated drop brackets and delrin bushings. Fabricated sway bar arms and dual 5\/8” FK heim end links round off the package. This is the single best bang for the buck, ride-quality upgrade offered by Carli Suspension (in close competition with the full progressive leaf spring upgrade).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen lifting the front end of a straight-axle truck, the front axle is pulled off-center unless the proper linkages are addressed.

In short, Death Wobble occurs when the wheels are allowed to move somewhat independently of each other, causing a violent shaking of the front end. There are numerous causes of this, one of which is due to the original \"Y-Style\" steering that came factory on the 2003-2008 model year Ram HD's. Essentially, it featured a pivot point between the two wheels where the drag link and main tie rod were attached. Later, in mid-model year 2008, Dodge released an updated T-Style steering that would eventually supersede all of the previous Y-Style systems. The T-style steering eliminated the pivot point between the wheels, but still had its own short comings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the main drawbacks of the factory T-style steering is that the tie rod ends are allowed to rotate a significant amount at the knuckles. This not only causes excessive wear, but can also cause them to unexpectedly shear off, resulting in a complete loss of steering control. And finally, the factory steering is built out of substandard materials when used for anything besides cruising down the highway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSynergy Manufacturing set out to change all of this and create the strongest drop in steering system available for Rams, and so they did! In order to eliminate the rotational issues of the tie rods, Synergy manufactured \"wobble stoppers\" that are literally a reinforcing cup that will not allow the tie rod to pivot on the main connecting bar. Further, the materials in the manufacturing process will not bend, break, and will undoubtedly last the lifetime of the truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most important facets of this kit is that it is COMPLETELY drop in. Other manufacturers have built upgraded steering kits, but they all required the factory knuckles to either be replaced or drilled out. The Synergy kit features tie rod ends that have the exact same taper as the factory. Literally, drop it in and GO!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOptional Tie Rod Stabilizer Clamp \u0026amp; Hardware\u003c\/b\u003e - Fabricated clamp to retain factory or aftermarket stabilizer with 1\/2\" mounting bolt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo you need to add this optional clamp kit?  That really depends on your setup.  If you are running a steering stabilizer that mounts in the stock location, then yes, you will need to ensure to add this.

There are suspensions that can make your truck look like the ultimate desert racer. There are show truck suspensions that provide massive amounts of lift and eye-catching components. There are even truck suspensions that are designed purely for rock crawling. However, what about a well-engineered, properly tuned suspension system that is designed for the people who rely on their truck every day in the real world? What about all the people who want to install larger tires on their truck without sacrificing payload, ride quality or handling?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis was the inspiration behind our original DualSport SC Suspension System, to offer customers the ultimate “real world” suspension – one that allows greater performance off-road, while also improving driver comfort and vehicle handling characteristics on the road and maintaining the factory load carrying capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe AEV DualSport XP Suspension System for 2013-2018 Ram 3500 HD takes that same concept and elevates it to the next level by giving customers an even broader spectrum of dampening performance for better performance, more control and improved consistency at higher speeds and over rough terrain.

This starts in the front end, where Rams come standard with dozens of different spring rates on HD trucks, depending on powertrain, wheelbase, and more, so offering a generic “gas” or “diesel” spring would have been a huge compromise in ride quality and\/or load carrying capacity. AEV retains the factory front coil springs mated to 3” cast aluminum coil spring relocation spacers to achieve the additional lift height. This takes advantage of the full range of factory spring rates and frequencies while still providing the necessary front end lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAEV\/Bilstein XP8100 Reservoir Shocks\u003c\/b\u003e are included with the DualSport XP Suspension System. These 60mm reservoir shocks are constructed from aerospace quality billet components and tuned by AEV to work in perfect harmony with your outfitted HD Ram. When we tune shocks, we use the same target weight as our Prospector\/Prospector XL turn-key conversions to ensure that you get the absolute best possible ride quality and handling, without the degradation in performance, commonly associated with the added weight of bumpers, winch, full size spare, tent, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSteering geometry is corrected by way of \u003cb\u003eAEV’s High Steer Kit\u003c\/b\u003e, which includes a custom no-drill \u003cb\u003eAEV drag link, AEV track bar and raised track bar tower\u003c\/b\u003e. This system provides significant improvements to steering precision and handling by correcting the roll center height of the front suspension. Bringing the steering geometry back into factory alignment reduces body roll, bump steer, and roll steer, all major contributors to the loose or sloppy steering and driver fatigue commonly associated with many lift kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOut Back\u003c\/b\u003e - The OE leaf springs are retained and new cast iron blocks are installed to provide 2” of lift in the rear on Ram 3500 trucks.
