alright ill start out by saying I got an 03 ram 1500 QC so 2 years ago because I am young and dumb I decided to lower my truck by taking leafs out. I took the helper and the one above it out. it was a really bouncy ride so I put all but helper back on and got drop shackles which made my truck lower than the front because my leafs are worn out now. I need to get drop leafs to keep my stance but without slamming into the bumpstop over every bump. heres a pic of it now and I like the way it sits how can I do that with drop leafs since I need new ones anyways? any opinions would be awesome481824_3474775486670_47784330_n_zps1dd0ce2a.jpg

If that is the stance you like, then I would recommend using a longer drop shackle to raise it up a little. The bumps can be changed to aftermarket bumps of any design you like. You could also shim the axle a little to raise the truck and use your current pieces. Shocks might also help with axle control. Study the suspension and make the modifications that will get you what you want. Good luck...
