I think he traded his Foxes for Elkas stage 4’s well not trade but sold his fox shocks and bought the others

Yeah he did.

I seen you just bought them lol. I really like my fox. Got them dialed in an they do great with the lift.

Definitely didn't buy them.

Good thing you were able to pawn off those crappy Foxes on someone

I am a bit bummed I didn't try the 300lb springs on the fox shocks. I think that would have been the right path forward. Plus the Elkas were cheap and I was just lucky to get them

changing the stock to fox was a massive improvement, changing the springs was a more drastic improvement over the out of the box springs.

Edit: what works for AL/TN won’t work for desert.

For all of you guys with Ram pickups, ProClip makes a phone mount just for our trucks. I installed mine yesterday.

Dodge making trucks now??!!!!

How does he get by...

Well if things get too bad he drives the Porsche Panamera. It's not as quick but handles better.

Keep hearing about how much better it is with springs.
I was actually pretty happy until recently. Added the rear faced a-arms and it feels better, more aggressive and sure footed with just people up front but got spongy with people in back to the point you had to lift when prior I didn’t. Was surprised to see that much bigger diff. I’ll try screwing down the rear, might just have to try new new springs

Yeah, I decided to switch from ford and try something new. Haven’t looked back!

Thanks for the info. Our 16 Ram already has a phone holder at the front of the center console.

Not a Porsche guy but I really like those things. Drive well, you forget it’s a 4door.

I thought they were REALLY ugly when the 1st gen came out, but the later generations look really good.

He loves his,I think he went to Germany and did the Porsche experience or whatever it's called. Definitely plush on the inside.

New springs are great. Im running 250 front and 275 rear. 300 would be better for heavy loads.

How does 275 handle weight? Trying to set it up somewhere in between. Problem we have is it’ll go from 2-5 people in one ride. Plus the cooler always. It sucks because right now it’s go time with just wife and I. I know it’ll loose some of that but hopeing not much.

For grown passengers and big cooler i think the 300 would do better. The 275 will let the tires make contact from time to time...especially when running hard. I usually dont have a real heavy load in mine. I would like to put the pin type spring adjusters on the rear shocks so i could add a little preload if i was running heavy without pulling the dam shock

The pin type adjusters on the Elkas make preload adjustments so much easier than the fox shocks. At first I wasnt sure about that but after 1 adjustment I knew it was better
