2001 Dodge 2500 . Added 3rd gen front brakes , thuren springs, bilstein shocks . Now I’ve got a real truck . Good investment. Thanks Thuren Fab .
Easy install
I needed to quickly replace shocks before a road trip. Thuren had the Bilsteins I needed in stock as a temporary solution and I was able to make the trip happen. I will definitely be going back to Thuren for future upgrades.
Finally got these installed on my 2008 Dodge 2500 6.7 Diesel and took it out this past weekend towing a 11,000 pound RV. What a difference over the stock set up!! I emailed before ordering and was initially going with the 3" springs and was glad I listened about going the Soft Ride 2" coils instead. I did the work in my driveway and it was a real struggle putting the coils in at 2", so I can imagine how hard it would be with larger springs. The track bar was the hardest to do, however. Once everything was disconnected, trying to get that front axle to go in place per the very detailed instructions provided for the adjustable track bar was a real chore. Probably would have been easier with a lift and another person or two. It was just me on jack stands in my driveway and I needed to use the winch on the Jeep to get it installed correctly. It's doable, but if I ever had to do it again, I definitely would get a shop to do it. This is seriously high quality beefy equipment and far better than stock. I paired it with the newer 2009-2013 front steering suspension upgrade and now feel like I have a brand new truck. Ride is much improved! Bilsteins are a little firm, but I feel like I have more stability and control, say over the "floating" feeling that some Fox owners have. Certainly would have liked to have King shocks, but for what I use it for, this setup works great. Thanks Thuren!
I absolutely love the way my truck rides! It handles better and rides smoother than stock and has a more aggressive look with the 2.5" of lift it gave me. Unbeatable price...I should have done this years ago!
