IMG_9711.JPG IMG_9712.JPG IMG_9713.JPG Hi brothers,

Background. 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd. Rough country 3 inch body lift. Max trac 7 inch suspension lift with maxtrac shocks. Running Radar At 35x12.5.x20. Height from ground to top of fender well is 47 inches.

Goal. Regear from 3.92 to 4.56 to eventually put on 40s. Prefer 13.5 with no spacers but might consider 14.5 with spacers. Would like to clear 50 inches from ground to top of fender well. Daily driver. Pavement pounder in city. Instead of buying old classic truck and redoing it, I am going to put play money in this. Have old 4x4 for the farm.

Thinking about. 2 inch coil spacers on top of front shocks. 2 inch rear shackles for back. Its not a concern really about ride being rough. Again, this is play truck.

Help needed. Advice on what to do to get the extra height. Concern of angles of upper control arms if I go up. Concern of angle of drive shaft. Concern if I need shock extenders or taller shocks. Appreciate brand recommendations.

Posted are some pics of areas of where I am concern and how they look right now.

Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
