Lowered all the way around and the gas mileage still sucks.

does it sit level? 1 coil good for about 2"I have 2017 sport 1500 4 wheel drive. I lowered my rear by cutting 1 coil off. Used a cut off wheel. Worked great and rides better.
No it isn’t a load in the bed = truck working harder = less mpg, this is more aerodynamicIt is the same as driving around with a load in the bed causing the rear to drop 2”. I don't see how that could affect the mpg any.
I haven't. Haven't had any other driver flash me because my low beams were annoying them.I like the looks of the 2" drop in the rear to level everything out. To those who have done this, have you also had to adjust the headlight aim. No big deal but I am just curious.

Rams are notorious for leaving the factory with the headlight aim set on the low side,and a 2" rear drop brings them more into line with where they should be.From what i've gathered up,they're purposely set low to compensate for a load in the box and the truck squats slightlyI like the looks of the 2" drop in the rear to level everything out. To those who have done this, have you also had to adjust the headlight aim. No big deal but I am just curious.
