Not sure if this fits your vehicle or which spring rate to select? Contact our suspension experts with your vehicle's build details and constant accessory weights, or check our comprehensive FAQ page for spring selection guidance.
Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal performance, component longevity and ride quality. Your spring choice must be based on constant load only — accessories and weight permanently fitted to your vehicle at all times. Common front-end constant loads for Ram 2500 platforms include steel bull bars (60-80kg), steel winches (40-60kg), heavy-duty intercoolers (15-25kg), auxiliary lighting arrays (5-10kg), uprated batteries (10-20kg), and aftermarket air conditioning systems. Do not factor in occasional loads such as camping gear, tool boxes, or passenger weight when selecting spring rates. Overspecifying spring rate results in harsh ride quality, accelerated wear to shock absorbers and control arm bushes, and potential stress fractures in chassis mounting points. If your load requirements vary significantly, consider pairing these springs with airbag suspension for variable load adjustment.
Professional installation by a qualified suspension technician is strongly recommended for Ram 2500 coil spring replacement due to the significant stored energy in compressed springs and the precision required for correct fitment. Spring compressor tools rated for heavy-duty applications are mandatory, and incorrect installation procedures can result in serious injury or component damage. A full four-wheel alignment to manufacturer specifications is absolutely essential after installation to ensure correct steering geometry, even tyre wear, and optimal handling characteristics. All suspension components should be inspected during installation, with particular attention to ball joint condition, tie rod ends, and control arm bushes — if wear is evident, consider upgrading to heavy-duty control arms during the same service. A 500km break-in period is required for spring settlement, after which ride height should be re-measured and alignment rechecked if necessary.

Yes, these Toughdog front coil springs are engineered specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 DJ II series from 2020 onwards, including current model years. They're designed to fit both the 6.7L Cummins turbo diesel variant commonly imported to Australia. The springs maintain OEM mounting points and geometry, ensuring direct bolt-in fitment without modification. If you have a significantly modified suspension setup or are unsure about your vehicle's exact series designation, please contact our team with your VIN for confirmation before ordering.
These are replacement coil springs designed to restore or maintain factory ride height while supporting additional front-end accessories — they are not designed as a lift kit. The actual ride height achieved depends entirely on the spring rate you select relative to your vehicle's constant accessory load. Correctly specified springs will restore original ride height if your vehicle has sagged under accessory weight, or maintain factory height with heavy bull bars and winches fitted. If you're seeking suspension lift for larger tyres or increased ground clearance, please view our complete lift kit range which includes matched springs, shocks and all required hardware.
This kit includes two heavy-duty Toughdog front coil springs precision-engineered for the Ram 2500 DJ II platform, along with installation documentation and spring rate specifications. The springs feature high-tensile steel construction with corrosion-resistant coating for long-term durability. You will need to order rear springs, shock absorbers, and any other suspension components separately — these are front coils only. Professional installation is strongly recommended, and you'll need access to appropriate spring compressor tools rated for heavy-duty applications. All mounting hardware should be inspected during installation and replaced if worn.
Yes, when correctly specified, these Toughdog coil springs are engineered to support the front-end weight distribution changes that occur during heavy towing. Toughdog offers multiple spring rate options, and operators regularly towing heavy fifth-wheel caravans or large trailers should select the appropriate higher-rate option to compensate for increased tongue weight and front axle loading. However, it's crucial to base your spring selection on constant front-end accessories only, not towing weight itself. For maximum towing capability and load adjustment, consider pairing these front springs with rear airbag suspension for optimal load distribution and ride height control under varying load conditions.
Not necessarily, but it's highly recommended to inspect all front suspension components during spring installation. If your Ram 2500 has significant kilometres, operates in harsh conditions, or you're experiencing clunking noises and loose steering feel, worn control arm bushes or ball joints should be replaced before fitting new springs. Installing new springs on worn suspension components wastes the performance potential of the upgrade and can accelerate wear patterns. Heavy-duty upgraded control arms provide additional strength and improved bush durability for operators running heavy accessories or frequent off-road use. Our suspension specialists can recommend the appropriate suspension components based on your vehicle's condition and intended use.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment to manufacturer specifications is absolutely mandatory after any coil spring installation. Even though these springs are designed to maintain factory geometry, the installation process and any ride height change (even minor) will affect camber, caster and toe settings. Incorrect alignment causes rapid and uneven tyre wear, reduced handling precision, steering pull, and can stress suspension components. Most reputable suspension workshops include alignment in their installation quote. Additionally, alignment should be rechecked after the initial 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled under load. This ensures optimal tyre life, fuel economy and handling characteristics for the life of your suspension upgrade.
Spring rate selection must be based exclusively on your vehicle's constant accessory load — weight that is permanently fitted to the vehicle at all times. Calculate the total weight of your steel bull bar, winch, heavy-duty intercooler, auxiliary lighting, upgraded batteries, and any other permanently installed front-end accessories. Do not include occasional loads like camping gear, toolboxes in the tray, or passenger weight in your calculation. Selecting a spring rate that's too heavy for your actual constant load will result in harsh ride quality, accelerated shock absorber wear, and potential damage to mounting points. Our team can assist with spring rate selection if you provide accurate accessory weights — contact us for personalised recommendations.
These replacement coil springs are designed to restore or maintain factory ride height with added accessory load, not to provide clearance for significantly larger tyres. If your Ram 2500 currently sits at factory height without sagging, these springs will not provide additional tyre clearance. The Ram 2500 DJ II platform has generous factory clearance for modest tyre size increases, but significant upsizing (35-inch plus tyres) typically requires a complete suspension lift kit with matched springs, extended shocks, and potentially upgraded control arms to maintain correct geometry. If tyre clearance is your primary goal, please consult our lift kit range specifically engineered for height and clearance gains.
Toughdog coil springs are backed by comprehensive manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. The warranty period and specific terms are provided with your springs and cover issues such as spring sag beyond specification, coating failure, or material defects. Warranty does not cover damage from incorrect installation, overloading beyond spring rating, accident damage, or failure to follow specified break-in procedures. To maintain warranty validity, professional installation is recommended with documentation retained, and the springs must be used within their specified load rating. Toughdog's reputation is built on standing behind their products with Australia's most respected warranty support in the 4WD suspension industry.
Absolutely — when correctly specified for your constant load, these Toughdog coil springs deliver excellent daily driving characteristics with improved control compared to worn factory springs. They're engineered with progressive spring rates that provide comfortable highway cruising while maintaining firm control under load, during cornering, and in emergency braking situations. Many Ram 2500 operators report improved steering response and reduced body roll compared to factory springs that have sagged under accessory weight. The key to comfortable daily driving is selecting the appropriate spring rate — overspecifying will result in harsh ride quality, while underspecifying causes excessive body roll and premature component wear. Proper selection delivers the ideal balance of load capacity, comfort and control for Australian touring and daily use.
Perfect Upgrade for Our Loaded Ram
