Yes, it does. It all boils down to payload capacity of the truck as mentioned above and the tongue weight of the trailer as payload will most likely be the limiting factor.
With a flatbed you might be able to balance the load so it tows well with 10% tongue weight. A travel trailer will be...
Just an update. I got this reply back from Bilstein in case it helps anyone else looking at these:
"In the interest of clarity, I have pasted your questions below and written my answers beneath them. Thank you.
It looks like the 4600 front struts have 2 circlip positions on them. Is this...
I paid $25.5 for a SC Bighorn a few months back. 73k. Looked like it came out of a new showroom. Oil changes every 5 k since new. Yours might be a little high even with the Laramie trim, but I'd rather pay a little too much for one with a good maintenance history than get a deal on one with...
I got mine from KLM Performance and it had the drain. It's pretty useless as I couldn't get an allen on it with the exhaust in the way so just changed it like any other tranny pan I've ever done, carefully with a wide transmission drain funnel pan underneath...
That's just priced too cheap to be any good, imo. If it were me I'd either spend the money for factory parts and the necessary programming, or more likely get one of the better Tekonsha brake controllers and go that route. My truck has the factory unit in it, and it's nice. I towed a lot of...
Thanks all. Don't want to change anything from stock ride height. Concerning the build sheet, it says "raised ride height" on the next to last page. From what I've read in the forums it's a 1" lift from the factory .
I'm leaning toward getting the 4600's if they'll set up the same. From...
Same year and truck configuration as the OP. My travel trailer is around 6700 lbs. 10-11 mpg on our recent trip from SC to central NY by way of the hills in TN and KY. I run 89 all the time and tow at 65 max.
I once compared 87 to 89 on my old Expedition towing. Mileage was better on 89...
I'm looking at replacement shocks for my 2017 ram 1500 quad cab 4wd. The truck has 20" wheels and according to the build sheet, has a factory 1" lift. Does that mean the 4600's wouldn't be the right fit and I should go to the 5100's because of the lift?
My truck came with an aFe momentum cai with the dry filter in it when I bought the truck used. Previous owner had recently installed it so I left it in. It's actually a nice unit and I like the washable filter. That said, I'd never spend my money adding one, and with stock exhaust and stock...
Any time I've done a pinion seal, I've run off the nut with an impact. That takes care of the staked spot without damaging anything. I then put the same nut back in exactly the same position and restake it. This method has never failed me on the many I've done on different makes. That said...
