LONG TRAVEL LEAF CONVERSION (1994-2002)

WE EXPECT TO RELEASE THESE KITS FOR PURCHASE AROUND MID MAY 2022. WE SHOULD BE SHIPPING THE FIRST OF THESE FINAL KITS BY THE END OF MAY 2022!

The Thuren Long Travel Leaf Conversion is a game changer!

From 1994-2002, the rear suspension geometry is one of the biggest drawbacks of the 2nd Gen platform.

A 4" block from the factory, very short length and very stiff leaf springs, inverted U-Bolts, etc, are all details that are upgraded to newer geometry with the Thuren Long Travel kit.

Massive improvements in ride quality and handling both on road and off is now a reality. Boogie Bump stops are included with this kit.

• Fits all 1994-2002 Ram 2500/3500
• Includes all brackets, bump stops, leaf springs, shackles, and hardware needed.
  
• Uses our proven 2003-2013 Long Travel leafs.
• This kit will not work with OEM or other brand leaf springs.
• This kit is designed for performance. The Leaf Springs are soft.
• Positions the axle so that through vertical travel, 37" tires can clear the fenders.
• 13.5" of efficient wheel travel with bolt-in 12" stroke (Short-Body) shocks.
• 18" of possible wheel travel, with fabricated Bed-Cage shock mounts.
• Shocks not supplied. Will require shocks NO LONGER than 18.5" compressed.
• Shocks required are standard Dodge Ram mounting.

Important notes below you must understand before purchasing this kit!!

• This is a very involved install.
• We strongly recommend you remove the bed, to gain proper bracket removal access.
• We have not assessed enough trucks to know how the brake line will handle the extra travel available or if the brake line on all years will clear the new Bump-Stop location on the axle. Brake lines are not included but may need to be addressed on your own
• Some year trucks have a brake proportioning valve linked to the rear axle. We send a bracket so you can disconnect it and lock it in place, but some trucks may be different than what we designed around, so be aware of that.
• This kit involves Face-drilling and hammering out a dozen-plus frame rivets. An Air-Hammer will save you tons of time.
• There is no welding involved, but there is a bit of easy cutting. A SawZall is all you need for the small bit there is.
• There is some light drilling needed to mount the new shock mounts on the axle.
