Coil spring help please.
I have a 1998 Dodge ram 1500.
I have had for 8 years a Rancho 3" lift and a 2" body lift.
I am running 35" tires.
Once in a blue moon , hitting a bump just right with the wheel turned right it may rub the tire. ( no big deal ).
Question is, I just bought a snowplow and I am looking for more load capacity.
Does anyone know how much a 2500 or a 3500 spring will lift a 1500 over the stock 1500 spring?
If a 2500 spring will lift a stock 1500 up 2", I can take the 3" spacer block that I have now out and install a 1" or a 2" spacer or a 1" or 2" lift coil spring and do away with the spacer all together.
I want the same ride hight, just want a higher capacity for the snowplow.
Any help, info, spring measurements would be great.

Thats actually what alot of guys do with 1500's, i dont suggest putting a plow on it anything bigger than 6' but you might be safe up to 7'5 depending on if it's winch driven or hydro.
As he said above the 2500 coil will fit the same as the 1500 coil with out any modding and will give you 2 inches
