I’m think about putting a body lift on my truck like 1.5 inches. My only concerns is would it make big gap between my bumper and rear exhaust since I have the daul exhaust

With the joint where the exhaust tips attach to the exhaust pipes there's a bit of wiggle room to adjust them up. You could also go with 5" tips (like Carven or Moe's) to make up some of the difference as well.

Only issue I see with angling the tips up is it would prevent moisture being able to drip/run out

I put that lift on my truck and the larger gap does not look bad at all IMO. If you don't like it, get the larger diameter exhaust tips.

Do you have a pic of what that lift kit looks like on your truck? I'm interested as well but usually not a fan of body lifts (at least in the Jeep world)

Rams do well with BL’s IMO. The body hangs well below the frame so even 3” BL don’t show the frame like trucks did back in the day.

Found this picture in the RAM ECO Diesel foum, this is Bilstein at 2.1 front with a 1.5BL lift
Rear view,i think you'll really want the 5" tips, I can't even imagine how that will look with a 3" BL, lol.
