Default Lift that does not void Warranty?

Is anyone aware of a way to lift a 2014 Ram 1500 (gasoline) without voiding the warranty? I am looking to get more ground clearance, especially in the front, considrered taking off the front plastic clip under the bumper but the dealership advised against it because they said it may cause the truck to overheat at high speeds...???? I do not want to change tires or wheels or do anything more than gain more clearance (2"-3") under the bumpers (especially front) and keep my factory warranty intact.
Thanks

Probably a Mopar lift as long as it's Dealer installed. Any other lift will just void the front suspension components which actually amount to quite a bit.

Front air deflector keeps the underside cleaner. it also helps with aerodynamics for fuel efficiency because without it, there is drag underneath the truck from various hanging components.
No, your truck will not overheat. You must have talked to someone at a desk with clean hands and not a mechanic...

Agree. You overheat in slow stop and go traffic. High speeds should never overheat unless your cooling system is clogged, thermostat, radiator, water pump, ect.
