If you get that 2500 black sports 6.7 diesel 4x4 mega cab straight pipe 8 inch RIze kit with 40 inch tires. I will kill you. How far are you from Naples?

Id love to get the rize kit. They are a little pricey though. Wonder what the actual lift height would be?

The 6.7L diesels are junk, too much emissions/computer crap on them...If you want a good diesel get a ram with the 5.9 diesel

Here's the breakdown. Anything larger than a 6in lift and you WILL run into major front end trouble, not from the lift itself but from the excessive weight of the tires. But, if you are a glutton for punishment, here is a list of the best lifts for the 1500. If you really want larger than 6in, buy a 2500.

Best 6in kit...Skyjacker by a mile.

for larger than 6in, these guys have what you want http://www.fullthrottlesuspension.com/model/index/3/19

My suggestion, a Skyjacker 6in and 35's. thats what I am running. I've been lifting trucks and jeeps for years. Any questions, feel free to ask.

it would definatly be on a 2500....no major lifts on a IFS. and i kinda like the idea of a 8" suspension fron RIZE, with a body lift. and IMO..if you have the time and money for those types of accesories and that truck, you shouldnt mind having to replace parts due to stress every now and then. just kinda a cause and effect relationship. big lift, big tires = more stress and wear and tear.
