Don't be a viper!!!

 

Was that intended for me? I'm not sure who viper is, other than the name being mentioned on the Duct tape thread right now.

I was just suggesting a mod that I did a year back when I wanted to lift the front of my 2wd and put a better set of coils in since they were shot.

 

a snake??

oh 97black_ram dont worry about dodge15004x45.9 he wasn't talking about you just a guy that had been on the forum for a while and about the boot, the only thing that dodge15004x45.9 will go is steal you sig

back to the topic

if you are only lifting to 2 in i would get longer schocks, you don't have to but it will ride better

If I am not mistaken, Theres a complete 3 inch lift that will allow 33 inch tires to fit with the proper rims. It might have been Pro Comp. Your truck will sit as high as a stock 4wd ram with 285's on it.
Someone also makes/made a huge 6 inch lift for these trucks. That one you'll have to research and it comes with different spindles and control arms. The truck truly looks like a 4by with that. I have seen one of these lifted trucks in Phoenix and it fooled me.

The Viper comment was totaly uncool, unwarranted, and uncalled for...

 

Yea, Fabtech make's a 6.5" Ultimate Lift, a 3" Coil and Arm lift, and a 3.5" Spindle Lift, all for a 2WD. Doetsch-Shocks makes a 2", 3", 4" 5" and 6" lift. They use the same principles as Fabtech, but Fabtech has been the known and trusted brand throughout the forum. They are considerably higher in price though. And then the all known body lift, although they don;t always look good on a 2WD without a proper suspension lift to accomodate it. I've been researching this myself.

For a spring spacer, it's very simple. Just takes a few hours. I installed a 1.5" spacer, and want to add another 3", just to give it that 4WD look. So, I guess I'm a poser as well!

Edit: Check this out. This is a 2001 2WD with a 6.5" Suspension and 3" body lift.

Was on the truck when i bought it. It works so, i kept lol

 

what do you plan on doing with your truck? mainly for looks? or you gonna be catching some air?
Viper put a 2" coil spacer up front and he had to grind something and install limit straps b/c when extended it was hitting somewhere, but hes from socal so i believe its only cause he was catchin air......


you can get a 3" bodylift for around $200 from summit...hers some other options

Thank you dodgeram07! I still have yr sing i need to change it but I can't find out how.

 

you may need longer brake lines with a 2 inch lift, one post on here recently said that the 2 inch leveling kit said you don't need them but the guy had his axle extend all the way down and popped the brake lines off. also keep in mind that bigger tires = lower mpg.

 

I jus mainly want the looks I really like the look of the 4X4 and mine hasn't grown into one yet I'm begining to believe it isn't going to
