Do you own a new '09-'10 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 pickup?

If you do, you probably enjoy the all-new coil spring rear suspension. However, with the new rear configuration, you may have trouble finding a suspension lift for it. Until now. Check out the latest kit from the folks at Rancho Suspension.

It will accommodate up to a 34 1/2-inch tall tire without trimming


Here is the Press Release:

The new Rancho® 2009-10 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD suspension system (p/n RS6587B) is precisely engineered for superior fit and finish, plus increased on- and off-road performance capabilities. The new Rancho system is fully compatible with Dodge’s electronic stability control system.

Allowing for the use of a larger wheel and tire package, the new Rancho Dodge Ram 1500 system lifts the front and rear stance of the truck while providing 4-inches of lift. The system accommodates up to 34-1/2-in. tires (315 x 70 x 17).

The system includes a heavy-duty, one-piece Rancho subframe made from high-strength low-alloy steel. The system provides exceptional strength while installing easily and maintaining proper CV and driveshaft angles to minimize vibrations. Another key Rancho component of the system are CNC-machined extended steering knuckles. The system includes all alignment hardware and aligns to OE specifications.

The system maintains the factory location of the rack and pinion, a key design element that ensures proper steering integrity and simplification of installation.

The system is fully compatible with the Rancho RS9000XL™ adjustable shock line (front RS999789; rear RS999369). RS9000XL shocks feature a larger diameter reserve tube to allow for cooler and more consistent performance, even under the most demanding conditions. Constructed with larger-than-normal 18-mm diameter chromed piston rods, the shocks are finished in Liquid Metallic Silver. The shocks can be controlled wirelessly through the Rancho MyRIDE™ Wireless Controller, making it easy to instantly manipulate the shock ride profile.
No drivetrain modifications are required for the installation of this system. Stock wheels can be re-used. Bolt-on tie rod assemblies require no cutting or grinding during installation.
Every Rancho system also includes detailed, full-color product installation instructions. The new system is offered with Rancho’s limited lifetime warranty.
Rancho is manufactured and marketed by Tenneco Inc. (NYSE: TEN) and headquartered in Long Beach, Calif.
