Good morning dodgeheads! I have a dumb guy question. I was looking at my 041500 ram 4x4 SLT 5.7 Hemi and didn't see any front springs. The front axle looks as though it 2wd but the rear is 4wd...is it normal to not have front springs and the truck to be relying on just shocks? I also bought a bushing kit and it came with spring isolators that I don't seem to have. Could it be possible I have a Frankentruck? Thanks yall!

 

No lol....your truck is quite normal. 02-05 4x4's have torsion bars.

 

Okay awesome, I knew about the torsion bars just thought there were springs too for some reason. Thank you very much. The Haynes manual I bought was throwing me off cause I swear it shows springs in all the photos. But now I know and since I'll have extra parts if I decide to use these bushing I'll just sell them or find the right polyurethane kit instead

 

All the 2wd 02-05's have coils. The 02-05 4wd's are kind of a throwback to the old days when ALL Mopar cars had torsion bar front suspensions:

 

The torsion bars are spring steel. Just straight with a single bend.
