Not lowering it, it has alot more sway or lean in the turns than my f150, I figured the Ford had a much stiffer frame and by adding the strut brace it would be equal with the Ford.

The strut brace isn't going to do anything on the Ram. The Ram has a frame, and the strut is nothing more than a coil over.

It's not like sticking a strut brace on a unibody rice burner where the strut is actually one of the locating links.

I guess you could put a strut tie in on a non rice burner unibody, I'm just used to hearing 17 year old kids with hondas being the ones talking about them. The fact that he would think he could put one on a RAM shows he's got no idea what they are even for.
