Normal price is about 850, but I'm sure I could hook you guys up mabe a forum discount on anything we carry. here's my info if you guys were looking for anything call me direct 866-830-1575 x5139.

I painted the grill surround black since those pictures. I also have Weathertech sending front and rear liner. I will post a review on the 4wp site about them.

How does yours fit? Do you like it?

Can you post a pic of it from the rear facing forward by the corners? I want to see how much overhang there is.

I gotta say you made the nice dodge grill look like a Ford. It would be nice if you left the grille and filled in with the material that grill is made of. Other than that the truck is cool.

graverobber09 is there a spot on the grill for the ram emblem or did you just add it yourself?

Graverobber - posted a couple questions on your blog, I'll repost here I guess -

Just checked the link for your lowering kit – there’s no option to select a 2010 Ram, but to my knowledge a 2009 is pretty much identical isn’t it? So the 2009 kit should fit? Also once I selected the 2009 kit, there’s a bullet that says “Crew Cab- Front w/2 in. Drop And Rear w/4 in. Drop”. Does that mean it’ll only fit crew cabs? I have a 2010 Quad Cab 1500 Laramie, would love to have it looking like yours or DocFluty’s, he’s got a McGaughy’s 2″/4″ drop kit on his.



Oh and DocFluty said it affected his ride quality a LOT, whereas you say this kit doesn’t…yours is a few hundred more than his but if the ride quality isn’t affected, that’s well worth it to me.

=( Still waiting to sell my Camaro before I can start all this modding...

the reason i said it affected it alot is because

a. the truck is now leveled.. and is obviously not as tall.. so its kind of like siting in a minivan (i didnt say it DROVE like a minivan.. just has that feeling while sitting in it)

b. i unlike the instructions and most people, i left my factory bump stop holders on. I did this for when i raise my truck back up. Because i left mine on when i hit a dip or a speed bump pretty fast the rear bottoms out hard.

c. it corners totally different.. not saying its bad.. but like i said before.. it really changed the feel of the truck.

yes it will fit a quad cab. i ordered the same kit that RJC799 ordered for his quad cab( mine is a crew) as far as a '09 kit going on a '10 i am 99% sure nothing changed suspension wise so it should work just fine. i have the economy kit and it does ride a LITTLE bit rougher but not that bad. also most of the people that say it rides rough have bigger aftermarket rims too which usually means less sidewall to absorb the shock. i still have the factory 20's on mine.

I'm thinking 22"s, the 24"s look good but I think 22"s will be fine.

As for the bump stop holders, are you saying you left them on because once they're gone, they're gone, or is it something you can still put back on later? I don't want to have to like take a plasma cutter to my frame or anything to level it... lol.
