I'm looking to raise my truck up a little. I have 33's on it right now with the stock setup and everything but its time for new tires! My tires are terrible on my Hemi. And I've been wanting to make it sit a little higher and lift it for a while now but I'm young and don't have the money to do the big suspension lifts and things like that. I am looking to buy new tires tho, so I was wondering what I can do to lift my truck the highest I possibly can for the cheapest I can. and if so if I should do the 35 inch tires. Please post feedback, im new to getting the aftermarket things.

 

What year, model , motor, 4x4

 

Greasy24 its an 05 Dodge Ram Hemi Sport 1500. 4x4. got the hemi 5.7 in it.

 

On my truck I turned up the torsion bars, got a front end alignment and with my stock 20s fit 35s but they did rub a little

 

It levels it and fits the 35 in tires making it look mean with a nice stance, but remember your gear ratio will give you worst gas mileage.

 

I was also looking into leveling kits and or someone mentioned to me getting blocks but not 100% sure on what they are. or how much they will lift the truck up.

 

Leveling kits do the same thing turning up the torsion bars does. Leveling kits are a indexing key that you have to have special tools to install. Turning up the torsion keys is free and all you have to do is jack the tires off the ground and use a ratchet to tighten the bolts a little

 

Not to derail the post, but can you post a pic of your outer CV boots in relation to your lower control arm? I saw how high you cranked the bars, I had mine that high but the cv boots eventually tore from making contact on the lower control arm when the suspension droops down.

I also. just replaced my cv axles with Cardone HD versions and I just need a comparison to see what I'm dealing with.

As for the OP, The torsion cranks is the best. cheapest level. Right now, mine is sitting about 1 to 1 1/2" lower than the rear. I have 305/70/17 nitro terra grappler on 17" xd addict wheels. The proportion between lift to tire size is perfect IMO.

Here is a picture!

 

Mine?
