Installing A 3” Carli Suspension, 35” BFGs, Thuren Sway Bar & Mishimoto Trans Cooler on My Cummins!

[@daymonkeeton7364]

Great work young man. Love it when I see people doing their own work. It can be aggravating, but you learn your truck and the satisfaction factor is nothing better. Also, working on it with your pops is priceless. Thanks for the video!

[@wade7920]

Get the Ram Rock Solid Steering upgrade for where the steering shaft pops thru the fire wall. That oem bushing or whatever wears out and causes a lot of your steering wheel slip. Did it myself.

[@korn111685]

Personally I think this is one of the nicest 2nd gens I’ve seen. Quality mods.

[@packingbone1953]

Turbo is fine, they have a little play until you build oil pressure. As long as you don’t have crazy side to side play to where your making impeller impact with the housing and no in and out play your fine.

[@stephenhansen8034]

You don’t want to see in and out play. Side to side is fine like mentioned.

[@canamcartel9694]

Might be getting an 02 2500 cummins soon. Love the look of the 2nd gens, my favourite ram body style.

[@idahobuckaroo8348]

Killer looking ‘02. You’re doing everything right. A Scheid Diesel hot rod (“Lightning”) VP-44 with a hot unlock would be great upgrade. Nice 👍

[@bajamedic]

Bro killer build, really well thought out. Throw your rear sway bar in the trash!

[@johngifford7725]

That's the (edit: same brand) transmission cooler I have on my 5.2 gas 1500. (more edit: Mine has a fan and isn't quite that big.) It's pretty good. I wish I had known about this Carli stuff when We did my suspension. Maybe in a few years now that the 'work' part of this truck's life is over.

Kinda wished you showed the install of the front springs

Would look good with some cab lights

Trucks good. You did a good job. Do you need a wheel alignment ?

[@The02CumminsRAM]

Thanks, I did get an alignment after everything.

[@sk8sloppy98]

nice truck

[@jp2073]

Nice truck, what gears do you have and how does it tow/haul/drive/feel/power loss with the 35" tires? Thanks in advance

[@The02CumminsRAM]

Just the factory 3.55 gears, honestly at low speeds It was kind of sluggish. I never really towed with the 35s.. but I did end up going back down to 33s. I will say the 35s looked awesome, but without re-gearing to maybe a 3.73 and upgrading to a better steering system, I wouldn’t go over 33s with stock steering or stock gears with the automatic. On the other hand I have another truck with a 5-speed manual Cummins, that has 33’s on it and honestly with the transmission gearing, it would probably do better with 35s on it. It also has a 3.55 rear end.

turbo shaft play is normal. nice truck ya got. what turbo are you thinking about getting.?

What is the width of those wheels? They look great on the truck!

There 16x8, thanks!

Nice! I got a Carli Pintop 2.5” on my 19 ram 2500, won’t ever look back. Any new update on the 22 rams? As far as packages, trim levels?

[@The02CumminsRAM]

Carli’s definitely the best! And not that I know of.

We don’t have one right now, but we should be getting a loaded Limited in soon!

[@kennethespinosa8442]

@@The02CumminsRAM I was just curious as I just ordered a 22 laramie a couple months back and I heard the options changed and some features are not standard anymore.

[@tradesman63]

The Timbrens should be closer with the weight of the truck on the suspension.

[@erwynortiz1064]

would my 1500 sit like this if i lifted 3 inches and same wheels?

[@The02CumminsRAM]

with the same kit, it would sit higher because the engine is lighter

[@tuffy16]

Are the wheels not factory ? My 98 Cummins has same ones, well rusty and uglier lol

[@The02CumminsRAM]

they’re aftermarket

nice. marcos de niza allumni here. would doing this to a 3rd gen 1500 5.7 be ok to do this ?

[@GR-hk4vd]

Could you do me a HUGE favor and measure from the center of front wheel to the bottom of the fender? Trying to see if my current ride height is compatible with the Carli/Thuren stuff.

[@michaelsmigelski7123]

It looks like the front is still a little lower then the back

[@DMACHOLMAN]

I'm liking this video I know it's an older video and I think you may have sold the truck but I've had my truck for 2 almost 3 years I'm looking forward to upgrading the suspension wheels and tires and the interior. and my Governor solenoid needs to be replaced Thanks

[@jeffreyyeater1780]

Take those running board steps off . It will look higher . And better . Just my opinion . Beautiful truck !

[@Cobra2000gtl]

better get a good security or it will be gone.. mine was stolen.. they popped the lock the changed the ignition was so fast...

Yeah, one said passenger, one said driver

Always missin that raptor! lol

[@rickbalderas7153]

looks amazing. great taste. I absolutely hate when people ruin these retro trucks by adding massive chrome 20+ inch wheels with -4billion offset and a skinny rubber band mud tire.

[@danielvaldez5093]

Love the build, these trucks ride so much better with nice components. I just bought the carli leaf springs but have different front coils. Anyway you can measure from the center of the hub and wheel opening on the bedside? Im curious how much height you actually get from these springs.

[@The02CumminsRAM]

I don’t think mine would be accurate.. my bed is clearly tweaked from when it was in an accident. I measured it once like that and got 3 different measurements.. the truck is pretty much slanted from the driver rear to the passenger front.

@@The02CumminsRAM that makes sense. Thanks for the reply!
