      Good High Quality Springs

      Good thick high quality springs. The factory spring is 18.5 inches tall while the Old Man Emu spring is 20 inches tall. The extra height combined with the thicker stiffness of the spring raises the rear of the truck (2018 Ram 1500 4X4) approximately 3.5 to 4 inches, not the 1.5 to 1.75 inches as advertised. This doesn't include the TRX or Rabel as the are higher in the rear from stock. If your looking to raise your Ram rear height 3.5 to 4 inches these springs are great. I returned the spring as I only want 1.5 to 2 inches increase height with more load bearing capacity. The return process with AmericanTrucks company went very smoothly. Also you will need to disconnect your rear sway bar links and use spring compressors to get them in, but very doable.

      Good springs

      These are great for towing heavy loads and ride great. These completely eliminate squatting and swaying when towing heavy loads. They are a little to stiff for off road. They also give more around a 3-4 inches of lift. I would highly recommend if you tow a lot and would like more rake in the rear

      Amazing Ride Quality

      Greatly improved the ride quality of the truck and the handling. The truck is now way more planted around corners.

      Great Bushings

      These bushings made the ride quality way better and a lot quieter. Also the easiest bushings I have ever installed.

      Makes Install Easy

      This is a huge time saver because you don’t need to drop the fuel tank. Just cut the old bolt and thread this one in the opposite way!

      No instructions, but a bargain price for what they deliver

      It does not come with installation instructions, so you are on your own. However, they only fit on one direction. Also, they do not fit flat against he existing spring stack. This appears to be by design, but it doesn't look normal. With all that said, they definitely gave me the ride improvement I was looking for.
