Alright guys and gals. I got myself a 1995 Ram 1500 with the 5.9L Magnum Engine. Downside? It's 2wd. I know I know. "Pointless" to lift a 2wd truck. However I like how it would look from what I've seen. Now the issue I'm having is finding the necessary things I need to lift it 2.5-3". If any of y'all could point me in the right direction that'd be awesome. Also I have already completed tacted Rough Country and all they have is 2" coil spacers.
I also currently have 33" Cooper's on it. Thanks for reading.

best bet is spacers, max 3 inch I would say, then either add a leaf in back or lift blocks with new u bolts. best of luck and welcome to Ram Forum! Post pics if you can.

Best bet would be to lower it, those body styles look best when lowered.

I don't like lowered trucks unfortunately.

Maxtrac and Doetsch Tech make 2" and 3" lift coils for the front. Doetsch Tech also has 3" lift spindles. Upper control arms are needed if going 2.5" or more, unless you use lift spindles. Again Doetsch Tech, I believe, is the only one who still makes UCAs. Not many companies still make specialized **** for our trucks anymore. Everything else should be super easy to find.

I have both a lowered ram and a lifted ram, both trucks work great and have a purpose. I love them both.
