New coil springs and lift

RangerWeaver · Dec 23, 2014

I'm looking to add a 3-4 inch lift to my ram. But my coil springs are worn out and sagging.
Any ideas on what springs I should get. FYI I'm strapped for cash due to excessive bills

3" is max before you need control arms so on a budget, stay 3" or below.

You could get v10 springs, ORE springs, aftermarket 2" lift springs, or the debatable diesel springs (some people say dont use them because a magnum wont compress them enough, but Ive also seen people do it with no issue. No further comments, Im not getting into another debate with people over that). For the rear, a 2" or 3" long add-a-leaf will do the trick just fine.

V10 springs would probably be the easiest and cheapest, could prob snag a pair at a junk yard. Or this kit may fit the bill for ya. 2.5" front and rear.

Johnn123 he is 2wd so no ORE, but 2wd V10 springs or dsl springs would work like you posted.

Ope I assumed he was a 4wd. My bad. OP that link I posted, the rear leafs would work but I dont think the front springs will. They do sell those separately!

I did the same thing with another thread of his I thought 4wd lol.

I just assume all trucks are 4x4...

OP v10 springs would probably be your best bet, or CTD springs (cummins turbo diesel)

Long add-a-leafs are the best way to go for the rear but since you have a tight budget, blocks will do just fine, especially cause you're only 2wd im sure you wont be doing anything crazy offroad. If I were you id do 3in front 2in rear.

I know for under 400 I got shocks front and back came with adjustable plate for your coil spring to sit on I just wanted mine leveled tho but it lifted the front about 2.5
