K30152

Overview:

The Fabtech 6-inch Performance Suspension System with Performance Shocks is engineered specifically for 2003 to 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models. Designed to enhance both on-road comfort and off-road capability, this suspension system provides a balanced lift while maintaining proper front suspension geometry. Ideal for truck enthusiasts seeking improved ground clearance and suspension travel, it delivers a reliable highway ride without sacrificing rugged off-road performance.

This system is tailored for non-dually models equipped with automatic transmissions, offering a comprehensive upgrade that includes front coil springs, extended control arm links, and multiple shock absorbers to optimize dampening. It supports larger tires up to 37x12.50R17 on 17x9 wheels with a 5-inch backspacing, requiring minor trimming for fitment.

Key Features:

Fabtech’s Performance Suspension System integrates advanced components to ensure durability and enhanced vehicle dynamics:

• 6-inch front and rear lift for improved ground clearance and aggressive stance
• Extended length 1.75" outer diameter heavy wall control arm links with urethane bushings to maintain precise suspension geometry and allow increased travel
• Replacement front coil springs engineered for a smooth highway ride combined with capable off-road performance
• Multiple shock system designed to increase dampening capacity, enhancing control and comfort on rough terrain
• Includes Trac Bar bracketry and upgraded Pitman Arm for improved steering response and stability
• Heavy-duty end links and bump stops to protect suspension components during extended travel
• Rear lift achieved through a block and U-bolt system for a balanced and stable rear suspension
• Transmission mount included to accommodate lift and maintain drivetrain alignment
• Compatible with 37x12.50R17 tires on 17x9 wheels with 5" backspacing (minor trimming required)

Construction & Design:

Fabtech’s suspension system is crafted from high-strength materials to withstand the rigors of off-road driving while delivering long-lasting performance. The heavy wall control arm links are built with a robust 1.75-inch outer diameter tubing, providing superior strength and resistance to bending or flexing under load. Urethane bushings are employed to reduce deflection and maintain suspension geometry, ensuring consistent handling characteristics.

The coil springs are engineered to offer a balanced combination of ride comfort and load capacity, optimized for lifted trucks. The multiple shock setup features performance shocks designed to absorb impacts and provide enhanced dampening, reducing harshness on uneven terrain. All components are precision-engineered to fit seamlessly with the Dodge Ram’s factory mounting points, simplifying installation and preserving vehicle integrity.

Installation & Fitment:

This suspension system is designed for straightforward installation on 2003 to 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models with automatic transmissions and non-dually rear axles. Minor trimming of the wheel well area may be necessary to accommodate larger 37-inch tires on 17x9 wheels with 5-inch backspacing. The kit includes all necessary brackets and hardware to replace factory components, such as the Pitman Arm and Trac Bar bracketry, ensuring proper alignment and suspension function after lift installation.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure all components are fitted correctly and safety standards are met. The system maintains compatibility with the truck’s original steering and drivetrain setup, minimizing the need for additional modifications.

What's Included:
