What method is the best to level these trucks?
PDAVIS, do a search on this site and the other forum for dodge, I am on both sites and have pictures of mine so far, it has a leveling kit ,that almost levels it out perfect, PM me if you have some questions about this, and dont let any one steer you clear of something you want , you cant please everyone. Its funny if you slam a 4x4 to the ground, no one says any thing, but if you raise a 2WD , ......the 3rd GENS seem to help a lot more ,maybe its because ,others found out WE are not going anywhere . I like all vehicles,and the work that goes into raising or lowering a vehicle is amazing.

Well I finally ordered the Daystar 1.5" Urethane spacers. Another guy on here has them on his truck and he has had no issues at all. I am thinking, or maybe hoping, that the 2WD's will not have any issue's with a spacer. I will post some pictures once I get them installed. I got the spacers from Moe's here is the link. http://moesperformance.com/index.php...ducts_id=12381 Yes I know they say they are for up to 2008 but we checked with Daystar and they said they are the same one they are selling for the 09-10 trucks.
I have those with NO problems,it will ALMOST raise it level, but it seems the springs on the front of our trucks are so soft,they will make the front dip a little when you park in different areas, remember to bounce the front end after the install, go and hit some dips,and also hit the brakes hard and send the weight forward, it will settle the springs ,the lift will be rally tall when they are first put in,and then will settle as the springs seat back , I have pictures of the bgefore settle and the after.

At least the parts where it talks about suspension up-travel and down-travel.
And if you're still looking for stock 20" wheels, PM me. I now have 4 20" chrome-clads, as come standard on a Laramie, for sale.

pdavis i have a 02 ram 2wd and i have a 1.5 poly spacer installed i've put alot of miles on the kit and have no problem. when i did the kit i put a heavy duty shock in as well the only difference i noticed besides it sitting level is a stiffer ride due to the shocks. you should notice the difference in height just by looking at it. i enjoy mine love the look. when i researched the spacer a 1.5" lift actually lifts the truck almost 2"
I ended up using the Daystar 1.5' spacer kit. I installed it a few weeks ago. The after picture is in my signature. However I need to take another signature picture because I added 20's with 275 55 20 tires to the list this weekend. I have a before and after picture on here at the link below if you are interested in that.
