We want our trucks to do everything. Hit the trails, tow the boat to the river, take us to work and transport the family on long road trips. Adding an air bag system to your full-size truck or SUV has always meant scratching at least one of those off your list. With most air bag systems, the lower air bag mount is placed above the leaf spring significantly reducing wheel travel by design. Your air bag system should compliment your truck, not inhibit its ability. Daystar’s new Air Bag Cradle* (Patent Pending) mounts to your trucks lower suspension providing more room for the air bag to safely cycle with no loss of overall wheel travel. Inferior lower air bag mounts restrict air bag movement using inadequate space, which can lead to unexpected damage to the air bag. Made from extremely tough Daystar Polyurethane, the Air Bag Cradle allows for full suspension travel, while still allowing the full benefits of your air bag system. The Air Bag Cradle fits most full-size pick up trucks, and SUV’s running 6-inch diameter air bags and are made in the USA.

Easy install and perfect for my use case. Paired with the Firestone 2600 airbag kit and my 2020 F250 Superduty 4x4.
Starting in 2013 on the radius arm platform, Ram decided to design the front coil spring mounts at an angle. This presents some issues with the coils design, as the coil has a very hard time standing straight without a massive bend in the coil, when loaded. This might be why the OEM coils are so stiff. Stiff coils will bend less. Regardless, with some tricky engineering we were able to combat the angled seats, and design a coil which stands very straight installed.
These front coils fit the normal 4x4 2500/3500 trucks, and also fit most 2014+ 2-Wheel Drive 2500/3500 trucks with the straight front axle. We make a 2 Wheel Drive specific front trackbar, but our shocks needed for these coils all fit the 2 Wheel Drive also. It is a good idea to email us pictures of your 2 Wheel Drive suspension to verify fit, pre-purchase.
- 100% made in the USA.
- If not purchasing our shocks to work with these coils, please contact us to make sure your shocks will function properly. Even aftermarket shocks by application for a leveling kit with stock coils, will not work properly, as they are much too short extended and the damping rates are way off.
- The 3500 Rams come 1/2" taller than the 2500 from the factory, which is the reason for the height difference.
- Each 5160 alloy spring is fully CNC computer formed and tested, using the most high-tech manufacturing processes.
- 26-30% softer than the ultra-stiff OEM coils, while designed to still use factory compression/bump travel. No bump drops needed.
- No radius arm drops required, being that these coils are designed around the OEM bump travel constraints.
- Proven Linear rate design, just like all of our other coils, to prevent inconsistent feel through the range of motion.

Truck rides way better than the 2.5 inch spacer leveling kit I previously had. Also added 37s and my truck is sitting perfect! Will be getting the Thuren rear coils and Fox shocks for the rear later on as well.
A
Easy to install. Much better than having the 2.5” level. Fits much better with my Method rims and KO2 tires with the -12 offset.
D
Big difference in ride quality . I love them
R
Love my new coil springs. I would highly recommend this product!

Installed on my 2022 Ram 2500 in less than 1 hour. Much Breyer ride than factory.
- Kit includes one pair of rear soft-ride coils, our HD extended swaybar link kit, and new frame guide bracket for the E-brake cable.
- These coils provide about 20% more down travel than stock, which mandates longer sway bar end links. If the stock end links were used the sway bar would invert as the suspension droops.
- If not purchasing our shocks to work with these coils, please verify below specs to make sure your shocks will work. Even aftermarket shocks by application to fit the OEM suspension, or even a mild lift, will usually not work as they are much too short. Shocks for these rear coils must be 17.5" or less compressed, and 26.5"-28.5" length extended, mandatory. Reason being is even our 1" lowering Power Wagon rear coils are a full 2" longer than the OEM rear coils fully extended with no weight on them. Our stock height PW coils are 3.25" longer than the stock coils with no weight.
- If you tow over 8,000 lbs or load heavy traveling long distance often, have a slide in camper or the like, supplemental weight handling setup like airbags and Daystar cradles are suggested. If loading or towing moderate weight only rarely, or short distances, the rear end will sag a few inches but bags are not really needed.
- Swaybar links use the same high-end JKS link pivots as used in our other swaybar links/systems, 17-4 STAINLESS steel link bushing sleeves, and Grade 8 Black Phosphate hardware.
- These coils are much softer than the OEM stiff coils, giving a feel more like a 1/2 ton truck, ride quality wise. They can also provide up to 13 inches of suspension travel.
- Each 5160 alloy spring is fully CNC computer formed and tested, using the most high-tech manufacturing processes available in the country. 100% made in the USA.

Amazing improvement in ride quality. As expected the truck sagged a lttle more when attaching travel trailer (7200 lbs), but attached weight dist., hitch and back to normal. Truck truly feels more like half-ton when traveling over such things as railroad tracks or expansion gaps. Do yourself a favor and buy the THUREN rear trackbar kit as well!

Rides as expected, I’m adding airlift 5000 to handle any trailer loads. Lowered rear 1 full inch ( at axel center to wheel well makes it easier to access when not trailering. I also have thuren 2” leveling diesel coils
- 1" LONGER LINKS FOR THE REAR AIR RIDE SENSORS, ON 2014+ RAM 2500 WITH FACTORY EQUIPPED REAR AIR RIDE.
- THESE PROVIDE 1" LIFT, BY TRICKING THE LEVELING SENSORS TO ADD MORE VOLUME TO THE FACTORY AIRBAGS.
- SOLD IN PAIRS.
- Rear sway bar links for the 2014+ 2500 Ram trucks
- MANDATORY when increasing the rear wheel travel, as the OEM swaybar/link combo can invert, if not addressed.
- Fully greaseable for smooth noise free operation.
- Will function with up to 15" wheel travel
- Will work with OEM coils and shocks, but will be lower and more level than factory.
Thuren HSK(Height Shim Kit) for rear coil 2500 and Power Wagon trucks! Yes, it’s a coil spacer, but better than most simple spacers. The rear of the 2014+ Ram 2500 and Power Wagon can safely use a small spacer while still retaining full compression travel, so we figured it would be a great concept to improve upon, compared to what’s currently available. Varying bed weights with people adding gear, bed-caps, loading up Ram Boxes, etc, we figured this would be really useful. Staying on course with what we do here, if we're going to make a coil spacer, it's surely going to be unique!
- Functions great with OEM coils, and also with our rear coils.
- 3 adjustable height options. 5/8" lift, 1" lift, and 1-3/8" lift height adjustable.
- Main spacer plates are laser-cut Aluminum, for lighter weight.
- Bolts down secure to the axle, so there is no noise or shifting.
IMPORTANT: THESE REAR COILS MUST BE USED WITH OUR SWAYBAR LINKS AND SHOCKS, OR COMPONENTS WITH THE BELOW SPECS. IF ORDERING FROM THIS PAGE, YOU UNDERSTAND THESE CONDITION AND KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND/OR ALREADY HAVE THE REQUIRED COMPONENTS.
These rear coils have 3 conditions that all MUST be met.
1) SWAYBAR LINKS MUST BE 14" TO 15" IN LENGTH CENTER TO CENTER
2) REAR SHOCKS MUST BE 17.5" OR LESS COMPRESSED LENGTH
3) SAME REAR SHOCKS MUST BE 26.5" TO 28.5" EXTENDED LENGTH
PLEASE VISIT THE 2014+ REAR COIL KIT PRODUCT PAGE FOR COMPLETE COIL DETAILS
This small bracket replaces the wire cable guide on the passenger side rear lower control arm, on the 2014-2022 Ram 2500 and Power Wagon. Use this when running remote reservoir piggyback shocks, to keep the E-brake cable pulled more away from the shock, so it does not rub on the shocks piggyback reservoir.
