Ok, new here but am a member on the harley davidson forums.
1. looking at some new tires and im thinking about getting the Goodyear Wrangler Authority A/T, 31X10.50R15. Anyone tried those out yet and what do you think?

2. Recently did tie rod ends, rack and pinion, alignment, brakes and shocks. Damn D still pulls to the right a little. I got the Rancho RS5000's, is that shock heavy duty enough because I know the weight of the D is just crazy?

3. I have the K&N cold air intake, magnaflow exhaust and was thinking about throwing in the throttle body spacer from Airraid. What are your thoughts about that as well?

Thanks for all the opinions and help, I appreciate it!

 

Can't go wrong with Michelin LTX MS at that size. 100% the best tire for the Durango.

Rancho 5000s are fine. Bilsteins are a little better however the adjustable features of Ranchos can make for a nice ride if set up properly.

The spacer is only a TINY bit effective on a 4.7 and ZERO effect on a 5.2/5.9. I wouldn't waste my money there personally.

Post a pix of your D and the HD!

Appreciate the comment!
Didn't those michelins come on some D's stock? Ill throw the Rancho's on when I start walking again! Wrecked my Harley actually and busted up my ankle!
I will think about the spacer a little more I guess, maybe if I find some spare cash Ill get it but no rush huh. Anyone runnin a superchip? Thoughts on those!

 

many like the superchips handheld programmers, and the tb spacers make very nice, very expensive paperweights


on shocks and tires you will find everyone has their own opinions, i like the monroe reflex shocks for most situations

welcome to the forum, please enjoy your stay

 

If the Blisteins are good enough for factory gear on the SRT10 Ram, they are good enough for any Durango.

Wish I could have afforded the Bilsteins but oh well. Any thoughts on why I did all that I have done to the front end and its still wondering to the right a little?

 

usually an alignment shop wont do an alignment on old tires bc they have bad wear patterns from the old alignment worn into them and it can throw off the adjustment, it is possible that the tires are worn and that is what is causing the pull

 

Must be the nature, mine does it before and after an alignment and tires moved around three times. Drove another and it was the same. Ball Joint recall has been done on mine.

 

mine doesnt do it on level roads, (most of the roads i drive on are crowned very noticably)

so it is not normal, besides the tires im not sure where to tell you to look for the problem tho

 

They will go to the right a little if the crown of the road is pulling you that way, however if it is significant then that is an etirely different animal.

Could be a bad ball joint or loose steering box (on the older years before R&P).


Also check the control arm bushings and sway bushings.
