Awesome thanks. If you have any ideas on more mods that would be great!

-Exhaust, either a muffler kit or catback. Unless you want to go long tube headers and mid pipe as well ;)

-Intake, little more power and sound

-Pedal Commander, which will be the biggest seat of the pants feel of gains and will help with daily overall drive ability.

-Bed Cover, keep that bed dry and secure

Purchased an adjustable traction bar 0”-4” on eBay and some Mevotech stabilizer bar links. Both definitely beefier than stock. Worth the buy I’d say.

Upgraded to The Mevotech UCA’s. I have no problem with stock UCA’s but have heard good things about these and definitely an affordable price. Gave them a good primer coat and a glossy black paint.

Was able to get my Mevotech UCA’s on last night and also upgraded to the 5100 series Bilstein shocks. Had the maxtrac shocks on first, didn’t like them then ran the rough country and they sent me the wrong ones they are for 2500 or 3500 rams. So the Bilstein 5100 is where it’s at in my book. Love the ride quality of these.

Tks, going to get one then-any varsity tips on the body lift? I did my lift myself and actually had a good time doing it with no major hiccups. Steering adjustments or just a spacer?

Can I see a pic of the rear bumper?

I'd like to see how the rear looks with the tow hitch as well as the exhaust tips to fill in the gaps and such.

These where just spacers that you slide between the frame and the body and it came with longer bolts. But no steering adjustments were needed nor alignment. Took about half a day with a friends help to install the body lift

Decided to go with some shorty headers I bought on EBay for about $200 ( BFC headers) had them on for about a week now. So far so good kind of a pain in the ass to install after one header bolt broke off into the head. Was able to drill it out and re tap the treaters. Watched a video on YouTube on how to install these. Pretty straight forward

Bought a stage one chip by GTE for about $100 buck and also got the Vararam intake from a guy locally for $200. I installed the intake, the chip, along with the headers all in the same day and man what a difference in power and throttle response and also my Mpg went up from 8.5mpg to 11.5 mpg. And also the large space I have there now when removing the stock air box. Could use that space for another battery or something.....
