Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System Installation - 2009 Dodge Ram Pickup- Video

Speaker 1: Today on this 2009 Dodge Ram pickup, we're gonna review and install the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System, part number TDR3500CA.This is what the Timbren's look like when they're installed under a Dodge truck. As you can see here, this replaces the whole bump stop assembly that was originally on the vehicle. And it really just bolts into place. It's very easy to install and is very easy to use once it's in place when you got a load in your truck.A couple quick details to know is that this is constructed entirely of rubber, but not just the rubber is what helps, it's also the shape of the two bellows right here that actually compresses and works as needed going down the road. Aside from the spring, it also comes with a bracket and the hardware needed to assemble everything. Plus, it's such a wide variety of these trucks and suspensions available, it comes with extra pieces as needed to make your adjustment for ride height between the axle and the spring.Compared to other suspension systems that are out there, this is by far the simplest, easiest one to use. more

Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs Installation - 2009 Dodge Ram Pickup- Video

Today on our 2009 Dodge Ram 2500, we'll be having a look at and installing the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs for the rear axle, part number F2299. All right, here's what our airbags look like installed. These are a quick and simple installation, and offer us a great alternative to having a saggy suspension in the back of our truck. It'll offer us an improved ride quality, better handling, and better braking when we're towing a heavy low or if we have a lot of weight in the bed. These airbags will allow us to run anywhere between 5 and 100 PSI of air pressure in them. At 100 PSI, these bags will offer us 5,000 pounds of weight-leveling capability. What that means is, if we have 5,000 pounds of tongue weight on our gooseneck or fifth wheel trailer, or 5,000 pounds of weight in the bed, we'll be able to maintain a factory ride height. These do not give us an additional 5,000 pounds of weight-carrying capacity or towing capacity; they will just supplement our vehicle's suspension and make it have a higher quality ride when we're loading our truck down and using it for its full potential. Now, unlike some of our competitor airbags that are offered for this particular truck, these do not have an internal jounce bumper inside of them. more

Firestone Work-Rite Load Assist Installation - 2009 Dodge Ram 1500- Video

Today on this 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 we are going to install part number F8620 from Firestone. This is their Work-Rite Load Assist. To give you an idea of what is going on the new Firestone part actually replaces the factory bump stop right here. When you have the truck fully loaded, the only way it is going to stop is when it hits this bump stop and goes down to the axle. You can see we have got quite a bit of difference so if we put a load in the back of the truck or bounce up and down the road you can see how much travel this has. 00:28 more
