Lowering tow vehicle

when you lower the suspension.

check rear end angle. otherwise you will damage the U-joints.
replace rubber bump-stops. with shorter urethane ones.

my Ram is 2 inches lower in the front.. and 4 inches lower in the rear. done 8 years ago.

and If you change is more than 2 inches .. you need to get different shocks.. as they are also used as a travel limiter...

Thanks, that's a good point about checking the rear end angle, but I wonder; If you lower rear 2" and put weight on to lower it another 2", for a total of 4", would that be the same as putting more weight that would equal 4" on an unmodified truck.
If I lowered front the same amount as the rear, I would imagine that the angle would remain the same.
