I'm sure they will, my inverted fronts were probably original.

ok u guys seem to know what your talking about when it comes to lift kits for these old dodges so i was thinking on getting a 5 inch super lift lift kit and i was talking to one of my brothers friend and he said that if i go bigger than a 4 in lift that i will have to get longer drive shafts and i really dont want to get longer ones because im thinking that they would be pretty expensive so i was wondering if i needed longer drive shafts for this and i am also probably going to be getting a 3 in body lift so that i could fit 38x13 TSL Bias and do u guys think i would rub on my fender wells when i turn

thanks,
cam

I'm pretty sure that kit comes with a driveshaft extension spacer for the front, and the rear shouldn't need it.

38's might rub with flex and turning, probably not serverely though...

Skyjacker will not have provisions for the drive shafts. That's Superlift only. You were talking about 5" of susp lift when I said the rear would be okay. I couldn't tell you with an 8" kit man. I run stockers (as far as I know...) but its a long bed, with a divorced Tcase...

I'm gonna go with "probably." I am surprised you can't find a body lift...

Heres one.
