I have a 2000 dodge ram. I was wondering if i wanted to get a 3 inch lift in the front, would i have to replace the coils as well??????????

 

I know the make spring spacers that would give you some lift in the front, but not sure how much. If I was lifting my truck, I would get springs.

 

Yeah, options are big 3" spacers to go on top of existing springs or get 3" lift springs (swap out).

Any plans for the rear? If not, you'll be stoked on the rake.

This isn't the only thing to consider when lifting though.

 

I already have a body lift 3in around. I wasn't planning on lifting the back. I want it to squat!!!

 

Do you ever plan on towing or using the bed ever again?

Coil spacers can work assuming that you have enough travel with your current shocks but I prefer swamping in lift springs since it will give you more articulation as pictured below...

 

Thank you so much!! And do you have any suggestions on were I should get the coils from?!?

 

There's multiple places from where you can get coils from, I went ahead and did the diesel coil swap since Rock auto had a $40 warehouse deal on variable rate springs. I doubt you will find any lift 1500 springs from manufactures website that will give you springs only so you would have to go 3rd party. I have seen skyjacker 3", 5", and 7" springs on Amazon but they weren't anywhere close to the deal I got. You will have to search around to find best deal and the manufacture you prefer.

 

Or you can rip some diesel coils from a salvage yard.


You really dont need new shocks for a 2 in lift.

 

So im just curious, why do you want the back to squat?

 

I have a set of new 2500 coils if interested. I was going to install them and they've ended up in the basement for a year.
