Bilstein Shocks For Gen III 2wd Rams Now Shipping (I'm told)

[LSteiner]

My fronts are on the way.

Just passing along the information!!!

Raychem,

Quck question on installation.



Looks like the frontend might have to come up pretty high to have

room to shove the shock in. Any problem using floorjack and jackstands

on a flat surface and getting enough height??



I was notified by ShockWarehouse that mine had arrived so I should be

getting them soon. Installed the rears a few weeks ago.



Thanks

Larry

Larry, I have access to a lift so install was a non-issue but you can do it like you said above just remove each tire to do the install and compress the shock right before you install it(you have to be quick).

I just got my Bilsteins today, will put them in tomorrow.

 

[LSteiner]

me too

Got my front ones about 3 wks. ago and installed them on the 6th. Was easier

than the rears actually.



Had the frame up on jackstands and with the suspension hanging down, didn't

need to compress the shocks to install.



Tested on the speed bumps at Home Depot and was pleased with the difference.

That '03 on up will work with your '07. I'll put my truck up on that! :-laf Btw, got the fronts in myself, pretty simple. I didn't have a tool big enough to get the rears out so I went to the local tire shop and paid them $20 to install both rears. Pretty dang happy, will give it the tow test later today.
