first I don't know much about these things. I have a 2" leveling kit in the front (had to after I bought 35" wheels LOL) but what I wanted to know is this.
I have read a lot of you guys using these Billstein shocks and running them at 2.8" lift? is that correct? so basically if I just put those shocks all around my truck would this give me a 2.5-2.8" lift all around and would this be the cheapest way to lift the truck up somewhat without going overboard or doing an actual lift kit?
next, if I did a lift kit would this basically guarantee my ball joints would fail soon? what are the dangers of lifting a truck? what are the benefits other than looking good?
oh. I have a 2010 Ram Sport btw. all the add ons I've done are in my signature
any help/advice would be appreciated. I really just want to lift up my truck a few inches (well really I'd like to do 6" but I know a full kit would be needed) and if I can accomplish a 2.5 to 3" lift with just new shocks I'd jump all over that.
Any help? and thanks very much in advance.
