Default lift info

I have a 03 ram 1500 and I want to lift the front to get rid out the stock look. Im lookin to level it out or lift the front higher than the *** end! Any suggestions?

4wd or 2wd, if it is 4wd get under there and torq the torsion bar keys, it's free and does the same thing as aftermarket keys. If you have 2wd then you have a few options, there are spacers that go above the springs, or longer springs, or lift shackles (The best). If you have the money get the lift shackles because all the suspension geometry will be the same but that is for 2wd only. All a 4wd can do is crank the torsion keys or get lift keys, they both do the exact same thing but one you have to pay for and the other is free. People will say that the keys ride better when it is impossible because no matter what, your still putting the same tension on the torsion bars to lift it to the desired height.

if it is a 4x4 and you either crank the bars or get keys, dont forget to get an alignment when your done!!
