I've got a 2008 Ram 1500 2wd. As of now it has the 7" CST Lift; so it has a 4" Lift Spindle, and a 3" Coil Spacer. In the rear, it is a 3" block. I want to go 2-3" Higher, but I don't want to do a body lift. Is there any way to achieve this? I know I can raise the rear by doing add-a-leafs, but how can I go up in the front? I don't understand lifts very well, but would cross-members be of any use? Any help would be greatly apprectiated!

 

the only way to get more lift in your truck is a 3in body on a cst you cant add a spacer and adding a crossmember would do nothing bc you would have to extend your spindle

 

i added a 1.5in spacer on to my cst lift and everytime you hit a bump your upper a arm hits the coil bucket no good on the ball joints

 

yea since you did the spindle lift there arnt many options other than the body lift...why are you so against it?

pics are needed

 

You either got the choices of a body lift or a custom susp lift. But I tell you now, the BL is easier and cheaper.

What size rims and tires do you have on it now?

 

I just got some 35x12.5x17 BFG Mud Terrain KM2, on 17" Black Rock D Windows.

 

The reason I'm skeptical about a Body Lift is the fact that I have a grille guard on my truck, and From what I understand, if I do the body lift, the grille guard won't line up like it used to. Is there a way to make that not happen because that's whats holding me back from doing a BL.

 

You can make it work but would require custom fabrication of mounts and brackets

 

theres a few guys with body lifts that have grille guards. If you have a grinder and a drill w/metal bits you can fab this up

 

still wanna see pics of it before and after....
