- Hemi 6.4
Hello, I am new to forums in general. Looking for advice. I want to upgrade suspension once my 2022 RAM 2500 Big Horn Mega Cab Night Edition c/w Hemi 6.4 arrives, should be May/June. Any advice on lifts, airbags, rims/tires etc?? Flexible budget (+/- $6k). I wanted a Power Wagon but I needed a bench in the front due to a family of 6....so I want to adapt a regular 2500.

1. Need to maintain +/- 2000 lbs. payload for contractor jobs once or twice a month
2. Looking for ride comfort on long 10+ hr. trips for work, usually unloaded, sometime with mentioned +/- 2000 lbs.
3. Off-grid family exploring and camping, and bug out situation, basically want to build an overlanding capable ride lifted enough to drive up small mountain river systems (+/- 2' water levels with rock bottoms)..nothing to aggressive but able to go where most can't
I am very new to this, so any advice to help build a bad ass dream truck that is still functional before SHTF...then survivable and capable after it does...would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
