Ah gotcha. I wasn't aware of that.

And thanks that's pretty much exactly what I was looking for. The rear almost always seem to be lifted on blocks with the kits i've been seeing, but my ram already has like 3 or 4" blocks on the rear. Is this stock for 4x4? or something aftermarket?

Blocks are stock. Why Dodge chose to do it that way is beyond me...... you want to avoid stacking blocks if at all possible, so, go with add-a-leafs for the rear.

I kinda had the feeling that stacking blocks wasn't a good way to go. I'll keep an eye out for add-a-leafs for the rear, and maybe some taller blocks back there as well. I want about 4-5" of lift in the rear, and about 6 total up front (including a leveling kit), mine doesn't currently have the leveling kit in the front end and I would like it level after the lift kit.

Most of the lift manufacturers specifically tell you NOT to use leveling spacers with their lift springs..... then there are others, the give you spacers with their lift springs....... That one can get confusing.
