will a srt-10 suspension fit our trucks as a drop kit?......

I dont see how it wouldnt, the basics are the same, dont know if they changed the front mounting points for better performance! Will be interesting to see how this comes aroud!

are you talking about the SRT-10 RAM?
The rear is the same.. the front spindles are different due to the different brake calipers. Everything else is the pretty much identical to my knowledge.

I thought the rear suspension had some sort of a wishbone style? I am not sure.But,from what I remember,when you switch out to the SRT brakes/calipers-you have to run 22's or larger for rolling stock.

yea i was wondering since alot of guys on the Viper truck club sell alot of their things since they are all high rollers i was thinking of looking around for anyone looking to sell it and i could bolt it up as a drop kit on my truck instead of buying a drop but the drops are pretty reasonable

I was just thing about using the basics springs front and rear isteand of having to buy it all new then going with whatever shock i want

the rear leaf springs are interchangeable, theirs is 2" lower. their rear axle is a Dana 60 (slightly larger/stonger than ours). Front springs are the same as ours, their spindles are what creates the 1" drop up front. BUT their spindles are built for the SRT front 6 piston calapers, and mount differently than our 2 piston calipers. So a front spindle change to a reg RAM would require the use of the SRT brake system up front (rotors and calipers) to make it work... then you HAVE to use a 22" rim min to clear the calipers.

i can hear it now, "honey with all the work done to it, i HAVE to get 22's or it wont run!" lol, the perfect excuse

The leaf springs are a bit different. There is an additional spring that acts as a traction bar.

THE SRT AXLE MOUNTS ON TOP THE SPRINGS, YOURS IS UNDERNEATH.DANA REAR IS BIGGER, SO YOU NEED TO SHORTEN THE DRIVESHAFT. SRT'S HAVE A 20" SPARE TIRE SO I THINK 20'S WILL CLEAR.

I read they have a 2 inch front and a 4 inch rear drop, but not sure about that. But it would be cool to be able to do this. http://youtube.com/watch?v=HRGti_yKO3w

Sweet! you should ride with me on 635 in Dallas one evening while i am driving home..

I actually would like to see how much off a difference between our 2 trucks there is. Mine being stock suspension. Do I need to bring my helmet though?

If you have specific questions about a SRT10 suspension on a regular ram ask me I have it all on my truck.
Most questions have been answered already in previous posts. 04 SRT's had 2 piston calipers up front. 05's and up used 4 piston calipers

HEY AZMOTORHEAD. I PICKED UP AN SRT REAR AXLE FOR MY TRUCK AND A FEW THINGS ARE DIFFERENT. DID YOU CHANGE THE YOKE AND DID YOU USE SRT SPRINGS OR YOUR STOCK ONES? DID YOU HAVE TO SHORTEN THE DRIVESHAFT? 'PRECIATE YOUR HELP.
