i just bought a 2003 dodge ram 1500 4 door. it has a v6 and i was wondering you thought on such a big vehicle with a v6. do you think the truck is to big for it. and how much is the towing capacity? thnx for any replies

 

picked up the truck today. its awsome. it has power for a v6 of course not much compared to a v8. on my way home from the dealer i had a quarter tank of gas. it made 85 miles and still had about 4 gallons left. awsome i think.. im very satisfied with this truck and the 3.7 v6 is great.

now my new task ins making a subwofer box to fit some 10's under the back seat

 

Congarts on your 2006 dodge ram. I bought mine about 2 months ago and i still love it. its a 2006 dodge ram 1500 reg cab long bed. show us some pics of the new truck.

Enjoy your new truck!

 

thnx .also its a 03 ram lol

but heres a pic

looks good!

 

any body have some suggestions on lift kits?

im thinking about a 6" fabtech lift


the trucks 2 whell drive

 

skip on fabtech. pretty much about the worst company out there. especially for 2wd trucks.
at best for a 2wd truck, i'd do a spring spacer up front to level it out and then throw a body lift on there.

truck looks great. my buddy just picked up a white 2wd regular cab 3.7L last night.

 

I just bought a white two wheel drive 3.7 a couple of days ago too. So far I love it, and can't wait to get started on making it better.

 

thats the worst advice ever. if ur lookin to go offroading go for the fabtech lift but just warning you, a 6 inch lift will put a lot of strain on the little V6 especially that four door and lifting it 6 inches will look stupid unless you have at least 33 inch tires whcih puts more strain on the engine. your best choice would be the spacers to level it out, but i hear there are alignment problems afterwards and I wouldnt recomend a body lift because its just a cheap alternative that people take advantage of. They retain ride quality, but they can cause problems with wheelhop and driveline bind because of the increased leverage on the axle. Front blocks are dangerous. The side-loads placed on the front during a turn can cause the blocks to eject from where they're supposed to be, and you'll have no control of where you stop. id look into a spindle kit, much safer, but hey if ur only drivin streets then maybe its an option. Its your truck tho, if ur ok with it go for it. great lookin truck too i love mine (02 ram reg cab white like urs) im way disappointed on the gas mileage tho...
