1500 Ram Lift Question! HELP!
Hello,
I am new to the forums and had a question about lifting my 99 Ram 1500 5.9 360 4x4.
I briefly talked with co workers about this idea and seemed to have no luck in getting the facts.
I want to put Ram 2500 SHOCKS into my 1500 Ram Frame.
The point of doing this would hopefully be to raise my ride a few inches without having to modify the whole truck body. And understandingly, Yes, a rougher ride, which I wouldn't mind.
Ram 1500 and 2500 shocks are the same length...so I was told..and are around 25-26 inches?? with collapsed heights of around 15.95 inchs!?
Well my shocks currently sag to the whooping length of 18 inches. So would 2500 SHOCKS in fact raise my ride!? Or could I even get by with 1500 shocks for Lift Kits in my shock frame?
Help, Thanks!!

I wouldnt put a body lift on anything! they are ugly show too much frame and you could end up making mods to brake lines and ground wires. Just get a leveling kit for the front off ebay for 65.00 hell bent steel and 2 inch rear blocks you will be able to fit 35s under it with minor rubbing
