I need help on lifting my truck please
Ok guys heres whats up. I got a 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd v6 3.9L Magnum. Its got an 8 foot box, and well yup thats my truck. So heres a couple of answers to questions that i will probably be asked..
1- No I cant get another truck cuz im in school
2- I know its not a v8, i got it for a good deal.
3- I know there is alot of threads for lifting rams. BUT NOT FOR MY TRUCK!
4- Yes I would rather a 4x4, but thats life
K, lets get back to the topic. The rear is pretty basic, add a leaf+ a block. Now the front is a bit more tuff, the only thing I have seen for the front is the coil spring spacer that gives it a 3" lift. I really want something like 6-7" lift. Also heard that if I put the 3500 cummins coils in the front it gives it a good lift? Anyways, hope I could get some good help, I live in Montreal (Canada) and I want my baby good and high for the snow! Thx.

3" lift spindle with a 3" lift coil/control arms/shocks. Longer brake lines. 4" rear block kit with shocks. There's your lift. Although I don't know if a 3.9L will be able to run with tires big enough to fill in all that empty space with a 6" lift.

I really got to do all that for the front? Whats the highest you think I could get withought destroying my wallet. Is 3" a good lift?

On the 2 bys, gotta watch balljoint angles, you go much over 2" with spacers or springs, and you starting getting into bind territory on the upper joints, which makes them wear REALLY fast, or, worse yet.... break.
