Your truck looks great btw. After you level it I would get some new wheels and throw on some bigger meats and it would look awesome.

I am running a 2" Tuff Country leveling kit from suspension connection basically coil spacers on top of stock coilover IFS,My Sig pic is a little decieving,my truck actually sits really close to level,only slightly lower in the front.(I think your truck would look better this way than with 2.5 prerunner look since you have a shorter truck.)

Look here.... http://www.suspensionconnection.com/...ling_kits.html

Go 2.5" in the front then add 1" blocks in the rear. And plus one on the torsion bars if you got 'em.

I guess my only question is that on the website, it says only 94'-01 1500's. It should still fit right?

Not sure if I have torsion bars or not, going to have to check that out tomorrow. If i can just crank them a bit then I'll try that first to see if I can handle the ride quality at that point. Thanks for all the help you guys, I'll keep you upadted on what I decide! Also if I go 2.5, what size shocks will i need?

As for the dip, currently have a bag of redman going. I just chew skoal when at work because I can't cover the floor in a nice layer of juice

CNFD -

Yes, the 2.5 will fit, a buddy of mine got the exact same one and put it on his 2003 Ram, so it will fit yours...as for shocks, I went with Pro Comp ES9000...its just a matter of preference and how much money your looking to spend...
