    2013 RAM 2500 - Suspension On Used Truck?

    I got my 2013 first Cummins ever!

    It looks like it’s still running stock suspension and seems like they took a leaf out of the rear…not sure why it is that common?

    Any issues I need to be aware of?

    I ordered a new Bilstein Stabilizer to help the steering and will probably get a brace as well.

    Here’s a photo; it’s on 35’s

    First of all, welcome, friend.

    It looks like it has a leveling kit or some lift on it.

    It doesn’t look like a stock setup with those 35s on there.

    My bad; yes, I believe it does have a spacer up front and a leaf removed in the rear.

    Stock suspension, as in the shocks and struts, looks to be factory.

    The leaf was probably removed to give it a more level look.

    Thanks, the truck ride was pretty rough.

    I am thinking Bilstein 5100 for the money.

    I still need to drop cash on the tuner so I know what I’m on.

    I got my Bilstein stabilizer in, and 5100s ordered.

    Noticed this whole under the truck; what would cause this bolt to get all bent?

    It could be from the previous owner over-torquing the nut, which caused axial force around the clamp, which created the bow in the bolt.

    Agree with @corkey looks like the bolt was over tightened.

    Okay just want to make sure it isn’t something suspension related.

    It only has a level.
