Height of Timbren TDRTT1500 that Fits 2019 Ram 1500 and Could it Fit Lowered Truck

Published 10/22/2019

Question:

What is the overall length of the drtt1500 7k capacity? It looks shorter than the 1500dq. Is the drtt1500 adjustable in length? Can some of the pieces not be used to make it shorter? I’m trying to use on a lowered 2wd ram 1500 with less clearance.

The overall height of the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDRTT1500 that you referenced is 4-9/16 inches with the included 1 inch spacer installed. Without the spacer it's 3-9/16 inches. Timbren recommends you have between 1/2 inch to 1 inch of space between the frame of the vehicle and the Timbren when the vehicle is unloaded as this gives the best balance of ride support and unloaded ride quality.

So if you measure the distance between your bump stop mount and the axle of the trailer and find that you have right at 5 to 5-1/2 inches of clearance this kit would fit without the spacer and work well.
