Happijac tie downs installed! Maybe some other discussion...

Went with these because of cost mainly, but I believe that they'll work well for me and what I do. Also have been known to go off road occasionally. Got what I feel was a good deal from some internet ...

This is true. Actually I think you can go with 1-1/16", 1-1/8", or 1-3/16". I think 15/16" is stock. The objective is more braking in the rear. It will not effect your ABS, if you have ABS. I think in about 1998 all 2500 Rams were upgraded from 15/16" to 1-1/16" from the factory.

Lots of info here: "dodge ram wheel cylinder upgrade"
