What did you use to make the air dam?

I think it's off a newer Dodge Ram. I think he had to cut like 10 inches or something out of it.

You got it, Dodge ram, not sure what year it was layin around the shop forever

Ya know I swear that air dam ups my gas mileage, even with the heavy 17s I still get 33mpg consistently, Way more stable on highway to.

although a person i met once said there hasnt been an aftermarket body kit that actually decreases resistance..from an aerodynamic stand point, the lowering spring and a proper front lip will decrease air flow under the car producing less lift allowing for less resistance in travel. but this is really marginal. i felt like i felt an increase in mileage after lowering spring too though,


plus you 17's are oversized from oem by 3%, so for every rotation of the wheel you are actually going an extra 2.25" which over the course of a tank of gas is an additional 10 miles not shown on the gauges.
