Question 09 ram 1500 2wd regular cab only

Are there any members here in PA or surrounding states/areas that have a 2009, 2WD Dodge Ram Regular Cab? Ground Force out of PA needs a 2WD only regular cab. FREE FITMENT. They need your truck for quick R&D. I have the phone number for the marketing manager. I am in Texas and this is prohibitive as I don't have the time due to work.


They can transport your vehicle if required per Ground Force.

They already have a 2wd kit.... They said they would only have my truck for 7-10 days and it ended up being 3 1/2 weeks.

Something not right here. I have a response from the Marketing manager and they NEED another 2WD truck. So the R&D is not finalized.....I will PM you the letter.

I replied. My truck was for their 4wd set up. Kevin bought a 2wd quad cab from dodge to do the 2wd drop.

They need a Regular Cab 2wd, not quad cab. They tune to the weight of the truck, jounce/rebound is paramount and they can compensate the shock/spring rates accordingly. The quad rides totally different from the regular cab....the quad is heavier and smoother and the regular cab is more choppy. They are always that way plus the quad has the longer wheelbase which will change dynamics unto itself. Per the marketing manager/GroundForce they need a 2wd regular cab. I used GroundForce 20 years ago on my '89 Mustang 5.0 Coupe.

Well since they did a 2wd qc and a 4x4 reg cab theyll have the spring rates for the back. They can adjust using fronts from the 06-08 suspension since its the exact same.
