KZ Show Stopper vs Spree Connect
Hello all. Can anyone tell me about the differences between these two models? Material differences, and how about winter camping differences? The Spree states it is made with a heated and enclosed belly. So I am assuming the SS does not have that at all? Thank you1.4KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Bilsteins vs. OEM Dodge shocks
Interesting. Thank you for the info. I have the same stock 05 truck and have had the 5100 on since the stock red "offroad" shocks were obviously worn out (the "offroad" badge is only the addition of skid plates and red shocks). The 5100 were a HUGE improvement over stock in ride quality. I installed Riderite airbags to make it even better and have not had any problems. I learned the hard way not to inflate the bags to any pressure per say. I just have someone with a tape measure tell me when the top of the rear wheel well is the same height as the front wheel well. The first time I inflated them I tried to get the rear to stock (empty) height which caused severe porpoising. The 5100 are all silver in color with no reservoir. When I bought them I was told there was no difference in valving, only that they had a longer travel length. I offroad so that is why I picked them. I may try the 4600 next time to see if it makes a difference.1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: 3rd generation Dodge 3/4 or 1 ton airlift 5000 install
Just to give you more info, I have Firestone Riderites on my 05 and have not felt the need to install any additional suspension hardware. Maybe you could swap what you have. They have performed flawlessly and are very stable. I did learn the hard way though not to look at the pressure that I'm putting in the bags, but to put just enough in to make the rear the same height as the front. I have my wife or kid stand at the rear fender with a tape measure to say "when".412Views0likes0Comments
