hey everyone!

i just bought a 2013 sport bright white. so far i love the truck, but its time to make it stand out a little. I have done some reading on lift tires shocks.. and im super confused now.. haha

some body help me out please..

4" or 6" Brand?
shocks?
tires? size?

I dont need to go HUGE, but i want a nice good look to it. I was told 6" lift will rub with anything bigger then a 35" tire??? doesnt make sense to me..

if anyone has done this to a 13' please post a pic!


Thanks guys for the help!

3" body lift with Bilsteins @2.1" on 35s. Cheap as hell, and it still fits in the garage!! More pics in the build thread link below. Welcome!

I've got about 1/4" height wise, and 3" length wise. That's with the bumper touching the wall. Sucks, but it fits. I've always wanted more girth though...

Got the same as you for height clearance but I'm about a foot to a foot and a half to long :wtf:

That would **** me off. I actually drove a 13 Ram home to test fit it before purchasing mine. I just can't see having to park a brand new truck in the driveway of my home. I'm sure that feeling will wear off, and when it does my checkbook will feel it. Need. More. Lift. !!!!

PS. Your truck is the raddest of all the rad trucks on these forums. Period.

Yea, but I knew from the get go it would be outside even if it fit.
We have a 2 car garage that already have vehicles with their claimed spots. :gathering:

Need more lift? I can help you ;)

The Rough Country lifts are very popular with owners of fourth generation Rams. They are also a great value. 35's look great with a 6 inch lift, plus you have room for 37's if you want to go bigger at a later date.

What Wandell said....
those 37's will fit providing you have a 0/+1 offset rim otherwise you will have rubbing going more negative and that Dremel will have to make its way out....LOL

Had to bring it out on mine. 37" Toyo MT on 20x10 -24 rims. 6" RCX and 1.4 Bilsteins.
Had to trim about 1" off my lower front bumper valence

Do you happen to have a picture of yours with the 6" RCX?

Im not sure if i want to go with a 37 or a 35... i would like to see how well it fills the wheel well with the 37s with a 6 along with 35s
