Starter Dodge Ram Suspension System
Our starter system was developed for our customers who are looking to dramatically increase the street drive comfort of the Dodge Ram 2500 series truck, who also wants an increase of light off-road driving performance. This system has several key performance features that will substantially increase the capability of the vehicle without breaking the bank.

This is a true suspension system. Each component is designed, weighted and configured to work in concert with each other. First the spring rates were perfected to hold the weight of the vehicle and increase the ride performance. Secondly the shocks are specifically valved for the Dodge 2500 series pick-up, offering a comfortable street ride and outstanding light off road performance. The truck is balanced to prevent bucking at high speeds, such as expansion joints during freeway rides. Every aspect of the component family has been tuned for the Dodge Ram Truck, an engineering principle rendering a true suspension system .
Provides 10 inches of wheel travel front and rear with improved handing, cornering while eliminating body roll, giving the ride a tighter feel. Steering geometry is all within OEM specs, no additional components are necessary, this provides full amount of uptravel and droop travel and the stop points are still in the factory position. Towing/hauling capacity is the same as OEM, no capacity loss
Bilstein patented their digressive self-adjusting valves that offer excellent road performance by improved dampening control. These are internal reservoir shocks that are a single tube, high-pressure design, that offer continuous fade-free performance and extended service life. Featuring self-adjusting deflecting disc valves, high flow piston to reduce harsh ride feedback, independent tuning for both rebound and compression, exact dampening provided by increased working piston surface area and designed for maximum control for increased diameter tires.
You can tow and haul the same capacity with the starter system. It is to be understood that the factory overload spring is removed and the sudden jump in spring rate is no longer present. The progressive add-a-packs spring rate increases in a much smoother fashion. What this means is the truck will compress about a half inch more under heavy loads.
