Hi everyone! I have been reading everything related to lifts for a couple days and I am impressed with the knowledge here. I wish i had found this place first before buying some things but I haven't had anything installed yet.
Here's my situation. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie on factory 22in wheels with only 24k miles. This is my new work truck for my painting business. It will get a nice wrap and be my rolling billboard in town. I want to bring it up a little bit to give it some stance. It will only be seeing city and highway roads for the most part.
I bought wheels, tires, and suspension from custom offsets. 35x12.5R20 Ridge Grapplers and Fuel Vapor 20x10 -18 wheels. I bought a 3.5 rough country lift (sku 31471) with strut upgrade and rear shock upgrade. My concern is that it is bringing the front up 3.5in and only 1in in the back. I don't haul super heavy loads but there's consistently gear in the back and I'm very worried I'm going to squat. I have looked everywhere and can't find good examples of what to do. I ordered the 2in rear tophat spacer from Readylift thinking perhaps that can replace the 1in one from Rough Country and then I'm good to go. After reading a lot on here I am less sure of my plan now. Is there a better way to maintain an inch of rake?
Thank you in advance!
