Take a look and let us know what you think.....

We've done a constant check with our cutomer and he's reported "smoother ride quality, no bottoming out, and better handling all together."

Can someone please provide technical details of this and other lowering kits available. I.e., how lowering is accomplished and any changes to spring rates, etc. What are the before and after rollcenter specs? Any corner weight changes? I want to lower my SRT-10 regular cab but want to get it right.

In my opinion, X-Metal Engineering makes one of the best kits. The owner is a Ram SRT10 owner and an engineer. I can't quote you technical specs. I am sure he could. Just do a google on X-metal engineering and check out his website.
Here's a pic of it installed on a RC. It has new springs and bumpstops in the front and CNC billet blocks on the rear. New shocks all around.

Agree, the X-Metal kit improves the handling and performance at the track and is not just a "drop kit"

That X-Metal silver truck is sitting PERFECTLY!! Do they make anything like that for the QC - And does it adversely affect tow rating?

Thanks for the kudos.

X-Metal does make a kit for the QC as well. I am not sure how it affects the tow rating. I have seen posts on vtcoa.com where Gary (owner of X-Metal) has tailored specific kits for lowered QCs who want to haul heavy loads. I would give them a call and discuss your towing needs. I think you'll be impressed with Gary's knowledge and the flexibility of the kit.
