The Ram 50 is a lightweight truck. Once you push over 300 horses through it all of the limitations start showing up. How are you setting up the rear end? I don't do social media so I can't see anything on FB...

It's a shorten Ford 8.8 with 3.73 and carbon Kevlar clutch. Stock leaf springs and ajustable rear shocks. Ajustable as in compression and rebound.

It also has diy slapper bars. We are still fighting the front end for more lift

Interested in seeing more pictures about your build. 5.7L would be a blast.
