Went and bought me a new 08 1500 4.7 V-8 this week.

I want to make a 'few' modifications to it (isn't that what they all say at first). I'm running into problems thought because it is so new.

First thing I'm looking at is to lower it a bit. Anyone drop one of the new Rams? I'm looking at going down 2" in the front and maybe 4-5" in the rear.

Who's running what? What size rims/tires are you running on them?

 

so the wife will have the bigger truck

sorry i had to do it!! hemi yellow is running a drop just like that.. i know he's on 22's idn about his tire size though...

check out slammed1.com for 2wd suspension he's got a lot to offer

 

Thanks for the info will check it out. Im supprised new 4.7 has 310 hp all redesined.so i figure slam it 22's maybe paxton supercharger then a few other mods 450 HP should be a good start

 

hehe so many mods ready for some speed!! y no hemi??

 

ill ask one of our contractors at work if he comes back. He as an 08 hemi thats lowered, not much. Hes running 24's i think though. How big you wanna go?

 

Didnt get hemi because had one and pathetic gas milage ,ticking ,pinging ,stalling and sputtering gets real old quick and the hemi only has 35 HP more than this all new 4.7 and lighter package. You wouldent believe how quick it is compared to hemi Qcab 4x4 35HP more but more weight.

Nother fact is this base v8 from dodge puts out more hp than the big ford5.4. Pissed frogers freind at work ofF she has new f-150 and i got 10 hp more and a lot smaller.[:@]

Take a look at dodge website about new 4.7, forged pistons,new "hot" cam,forged rods,twin plugs per hole and more! not a laughing matter any more

BTW the only thing cool about the hemi was the name. my old 4.7 i had 5 yrs ago wasent that quick but got 22mpg constant

 

Im hoping to go 2in frt 4-5 in rear nothing crazy but get the srt stance and handle better. Hell if i cant lift and go wheelin then slamed and fast will work

 

sounds good to me! best of luck to ya! let me know if i can help with anything!
