Or you could do like sixpoints and get a narrow 35 without the wheel spacer?
Yeah I just read that, that's a good option too, I may start looking at sizes in the tire I want and see what's available

looks awesome, I still have lots to read, there is so much more to lifting these 1500's compared to the 2500 and 3500.

I knew for sure I wanted 35s, so I started with Bils, thinking I would add a 4 or 6 inch lift after. Then I got used to 35s and just the Bils. Still not sure if I'm going to add Zone lift to not.

Looks pretty good to me, really like how those 35's fill up the wheel well more than normal. And with 20" wheels it doesn't even seem like the tires are that big anyways.

Yeah it looks good, if I level I wanted to go to 2.8 but it seems like it causes vibration and sharp angles on the cv's. I was considering 2.8 and then a 1 in spacer in the rear. Either way if I do level I'll get the zone uca. I just don't want any vibration or any issues with a brand new truck, lifts for these 1500's are so expensive (I'm in Canada )

for the guys asking about the outdoorsman lift. i work for chrysler and have build a few of 1500s that were not outdoorsman. the super lift is your best bet. i know that the 6in from super lift says it will fit but its only a 5in lift because the outdoorsman sits 1in higher from the factory. i have this kit on my truck and i love it

I priced a 4" mopar from the dealer when k picked my truck up , they told me 5100.00, I went one block away and the same superlift kit was 2599.00 with bilsteins. I asked how they can double the price on something and they just shrugged and said its mopar

There is another thread going on about price difference on lifts but to cut to the chase, just picked up a 4" Superlift shipped for $1079.

problem is you can't lift them very big and will eventually trade it in on a 3/4 ton

I will be getting a new 3500 when I get more info on when the body style is changing. I still have a 2500 mega cab. I just want a bit more height on this 1500 because I do use it for hunting and we get alot of snow here as well, also looks way better.
