2002 and up 3rd gen has front torsion bars. Older (2001) had coilover type front units.

Can't help with the cheapest lift method.

I could be wrong but 06+ does not have them. 06+ owners, ring in.

You're correct. 2006 4x4 Rams went back to a coil-over type design.

Additionally, 4WD Rams now ride on a new coil-over-shock front suspension, replacing last year's torsion bars. (In general, torsion bars absorb hard impacts better than coil springs, but are harder to tune for smooth, progressive action.)
