Default Lift Questions

Hi everyone this is my first post so please just hang on with me. I have a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7L Hemi 2wd. I dont have a lot of money and fixin to go to college so something cheap will be the best. I'm not sure if i want to Level it out or put a 3in lift on it. I don't plan on mudding with it or taking it off road. I just like the stance of it and i like to ride high.

If i can just get some of yalls opinions and tell me what yall did that would be great.

Welcome to DF! Here are some pretty cheap leveling springs. Better price than the other lifts on www.performancelifts.com.

with lift springs the ride will be alot harsher due to the fact that the springs are longer.Spindles are the way to go,because the suspension isn't changed any,just the hub mounting is lowered.But they cost alot more too.I just bought some rough country 3" spindles for $500 which included shocks and a 1.5 block for the rear.Having some troubles installing the spindles,but I think I can work it out.Will update
