Lowering a 4wd 2500HD?

[Gord]

Hi All,

I think I posted this in the wrong spot originally...

Anyways, is it possible to lower a 4wd HD Ram?

I want to have ride height more like a 2wd or even 1/2 ton 2wd, but still need a 4wd. Ride height is not an issue as there isn't really anywhere that I go requiring any more clearance than a car has.

Thanks,

-Gord

Anything can be done, it depends on what you are willing to give up to do it. Are you looking to lower it for Fuel economy, easier to get in, looks? The rear has a block in it that could be removed and the front springs could be replaced with shorter springs, but keep in mind that like most of us offroaders go through going up, you will have issues like drive shafts and such that will have to be dealt with going down.

Could do spring under

Could do spring under

Front is coiled, would require a shorter spring and maybe some mods to the upper and lower arms.

My bad. Really depending on how low he wants to go, he could just remove the block in the back. If he went SUA, he would be going down about 7-8" total.
