Did you ever find anything? I have been looking as well.
I came across this, which says it is compatible, and is made by Daystar. Daystar doesn't list the item on their site though for a 2010 Ram.

If you want to lift it just level in the front, the company I bought mine from is here
http://performancelifts.com/cgi-bin/cart/index.html
if you want it leveled and the rake put back in go here
http://www.truxxx.com/product/dodge
if you want to lift it higher get spindles and a one inch spacer here
http://performancelifts.com/cgi-bin/cart/CSK-D23-7.html
also if you want to go higher performance lifts .com sells
a spindle /spacer /rear lift kit, (this is what i have), and it will go up 6 inches
if you get there optional 3 inch spacers it will go 7 inches, but the ride will suffer
they also sell the body lift for our trucks-for 3 inches of lift
lots of ways to go, i have seen these on trucks already
first thing you have to decide is HOW FAR YOU WANT TO GO UP, or do i just want it leveled??
then do I want the rake bacl in it, meaning the downhill slant of the truck ,where the rear sits higher than the front, its up to you, if you need mor help just ask.

Just ordered Daystar spacers from Amazon for $38 shipped. Standard shipping is free for everyone...I happen to be an Amazon Prime member, so I got free 2-day shipping...just in time for the weekend!

I'm also doing a Python alarm system install, so it looks like a busy weekend for me. Hopefully the weather will be nice.

That kit will not level out your truck, it will get it closer, but i just took those out, you need to put your truck on as flat and level ground, cement, then with maybe a half a tank of gas, or where you normally run, measure your tire on top at a place you can remember, and measure from there to the fender lip on the edge, measure the rear the same way, then you will know what you need to level it, my demensions will not help, since I have the hemi, it is heavier, then you will know what spacers will level it out, just didnt want you to buy something that wont work right for you.
I has the 1.5" Daystar spacers installed yesterday and you were right, it doesn't level it out completely. I have my suspicions though. My installer (even though I requested it) did not use the stock coil isolator with the spacer. So consider this: The Daystar spacer is approx. 3/4" from coil to seat. I got about 1 1/8" from the lift. If the coil isolator (which is approx. 1/4") was used, I feel as though I would have gotten the full 1.5". This would not have fully leveled the vehicle but the difference from front to back would be about an inch. Although some sites list the 1.5" spacer as a leveling kit, Daystar does not sell it as such. They're leveling kit is almost triple the price and includes a 2" front coil spacer.
I called Daystar after the lift and complained that I did not get the full 1.5" from the spacer, and that others have had mixed results as well. They told me that Dodge uses springs with various load rates and that the inconsistency is a Dodge problem...not theirs. I did get some good news, as Daystar sent me a 2" spacer for free. My installer agreed to install it for no additional labor. I'll let you know how that goes!

Sad news on the 1.5's but fantastic news on the 2 inchers, you are right the isolaters WILL give it a hair more,make sure you give us pictures, there are tons of us here, some just dont post....

that truck is looking good,didi you notice yet ,that depending where it is parked, the springs in front seem soft, it will look off level depending on what it is sitting on, at a store it might look level, thn park at another place it looks un-level, WEIRD, thanks for the pictures , send more after the 2 inchers are in there, measure them BEFORE they go in of course.
