TRQ Front Steering & Suspension Kit for 2013-2018 Ram 1500 - Direct

In this review the TRQ Front Steering & Suspension Kit is evaluated for Ram 1500 owners who need a comprehensive, direct-fit replacement. The kit's single biggest selling point is that it bundles 12 steering and suspension pieces into one purchase, saving time sourcing individual parts and simplifying a front-end rebuild. For DIY mechanics and independent shops tackling 2013-2018 Ram 1500 front-end work, the kit promises matched components and an OE replacement approach that reduces compatibility guesswork.

Key Features

• Complete 12-piece kit: Includes upper and lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rods, sway bar links and rack bellows to address most front-end needs in one purchase.
• Direct fit OE replacement: Designed to replace factory components without modifications, which speeds installation and reduces alignment surprises.
• Anti-corrosion coating: Coated surfaces improve long-term durability and resist salt and road chemicals for extended service life.
• Vehicle specific fitment: Fitment checks for 2013-2018 Ram 1500 front applications help ensure the parts match the truck configuration before purchase.
• Kitted for restored performance: Replacing worn components together restores road feel and steering responsiveness more predictably than piecemeal repairs.

Who It's For

The kit is best for Ram 1500 owners and independent mechanics who want a single-package solution for front steering and suspension service on 2013-2018 models, including 4WD 2013 Ram 1500 fronts. It suits those comfortable with installation and alignment procedures or who have access to a shop for final alignment.

It is less appropriate for owners who need only one or two parts, or for buyers prioritizing long-term OEM warranty-backed components; some customers have reported durability and quality inconsistencies, so those needing the absolute longest-lasting original equipment replacements may prefer factory parts or staggered upgrades.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comprehensive kit reduces ordering time and ensures matched front-end components for predictable handling.
• Direct-fit design minimizes trimming or modification during installation.
• Anti-corrosion coating and OE-style construction offer improved surface life over untreated replacements.

Cons

• Some buyers report variable longevity of tie rods and ball joints, so longevity may not match OEM in every case.
• Occasional reports of missing parts or defective threads mean careful inspection on delivery is recommended.
