Why Choose iFJF
The DR1500DQ is not a universal-fit kit — it's engineered specifically for the 2009-2020 Ram 1500 platform. Every bracket, spring, and bolt is designed around Ram's chassis geometry. This means perfect fitment, no rattles, and predictable performance. Unlike universal air bag kits that leak and fail, this mechanical enhancement system is maintenance-free for the life of your truck.
Installation Overview
-
Lift and support the vehicle — safely jack up the rear and place jack stands under the frame rails.
-
Remove rear wheels for access to the coil spring area.
-
Install mounting brackets — bolt to factory frame locations using supplied Grade 8 hardware.
-
Position enhancement springs — slide into place between the bracket and axle perch.
-
Torque all hardware to specification (provided in instructions). Reinstall wheels.
-
Test drive — suspension will settle after 50-100 miles. Re-torque hardware after break-in.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this kit eliminate rear sag when towing?
A: Yes. The DR1500DQ system is designed specifically to level your Ram 1500 when towing or hauling heavy loads. It provides additional support to the rear coil springs, preventing the nose-high stance common with factory suspension under load.
Q: Does this replace my factory air suspension?
A: The DR1500DQ works as an enhancement to factory coil suspension. If you have the factory air ride system, this kit can supplement or partially replace air bag components — check compatibility with your specific trim level.
Q: How difficult is the installation?
A: Installation is rated 3/5 difficulty — basic mechanical skills and common hand tools required. Most DIY mechanics complete the job in 2-4 hours. No welding or drilling required.
Q: Will this affect my ride quality when unloaded?
A: When properly adjusted, the enhancement system maintains near-stock ride quality when unloaded while providing significant support improvement when towing or hauling.
Q: Does it work with lifted trucks?
A: The DR1500DQ is compatible with stock height and mild lift applications (up to 2 inches). For trucks with larger lifts, please contact us for fitment verification.
