Synergy 2003-2013 Dodge Ram 1500 / 2500 / 3500 Long Arm Upgrade Kit
Part #: 8580-04
Weight: 80 lbs
The Synergy Long Arm Kit is designed to improve your trucks suspension geometry while off-roading. Shorter control arm angles are hard on a vehicle’s suspension components which leads to poor vehicle handling, limited suspension travel and an overall bumpy ride as the shocks produce a choppy movement as you drive. By using the Synergy long arm kit an better angle is achieved, which offers more range of motion and doesn’t put undue stress on the truck’s suspension components.

Notes:
- Upgrading to long arms requires removal of the stock control arm brackets at the frame
- To prevent front tires from rubbing the control arms at full steering lock, we recommend the following wheel/tire combinations:
- Most* 37 inch tires - wheels must have no more than 4.5 inches of backspacing
- Most* 40 inch tires - wheels must have no more than 3.75 inches of backspacing
- * Same size tires will dimensionally vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.
- Welding on long arm brackets to frame is recommended for a cleaner install.
- 8565 Cam Bolt Eliminators recommended for increased strength and extended bushing life
