The shocks will NOT give you any height or weight load capacity, they are just shocks.

I purchased new factory shocks and factory New Springs, when I used the kit. The kit worked fine. Nice lift of about 3" with all new suspension parts. Had it done professionally.

if you have an older truck with leaf front springs and they don't inter fear with any other other parts of the truck then yes, if still available "Add a leaf kit" is a better choice.

I would suggest you gooole for their website and ck. on a parts diagram for it and see if the spring would be available for it. if you want my email it is s10871@verizon.net. Ps if the spring is too expensive maybe just buy another trimmer.

Yes you can! Tractor supply, or any auto parts supplier will have one! The only drawback is, raising the height of the carrier will make loading and off loading more difficult, but no more ground clearance issues! Helper leaf springs on your truck will also help, it did for Me! Safe Travels........

Dodge does not sell the ones you are looking for. They discontinued that style. They sell only the raised kind.

It well just not as desired especially the v6 model and the extra weight. Don't do it you'll ruin your shocks and have to replace everything maybe spending hundreds if u have someone doing it or maybe at the least 200 if u do it. These things are a joke. Buy quality with the spring already attached to the strut

Bill P. I just back from a 3000 mi. adventure, 09 1500 silverado,pulling a 2500#7x14 single axel trailer with a 1976 Harley FLH. Truck had 900# of gear and total trailer close to 4000#. These Overload springs worked great! Yes, air systems are nice,but for the money you cant get a better deal. I had to monkey around a bit with the set-up but I would start at about half of full tension (full being 1" from truck spring at the U-bolts on overload spring.) see how that works for you. Remember,one-quarter inch in tension is a big ajustment and make sure both springs are the same tension and location on the truck.Worked great ! Bill P.

I mounted these on a 98 Explorer which has the leaf springs mounted on the bottom of the axle, and they worked fine. If the Explorer's leaf springs were mounted on top of the axle the helper was mounted far enough rearward that it would not have interfered with the standard Ford mounting bracket and hardware. Hope this helps.

To be honest, I was not comfortable with the quality of the hardware that came with the blocks. I ended up spending the money and had my leaf springs re arched. It's a much safer way of getting the little bit of lift that your looking for.

Id look at an air bag system dont think the spring shocks will help that much .A friend of mine put air bags on rear of his can level out rearend with an air hose he said only way to go

It comes with all the parts that you need. But be aware you need to remove the factory U bolts that are holding your stock leaf springs. This can be tricky because they can be pretty stuck on there if it has been several years since they were installed. I used a 3 ft breaker bat and an impact gun to make removing mine easier.

the 2000 lbs springs are about 4 inches in diameter by 8 inches high as also the 1500 lbs ones...the 2000 lbs springs added on the rear of a 4000 pound car (1969 dodge charger with tired saggy leaf springs) added about 2 inches in ride height but were too hard of a ride to use ...The 1500 lbs springs are perfect with 1 1/2 inch ride height increase and great ride with no spring noise...

don't buy the Rancho QuickLIFT the springs are very soft it feels like your truck is floating everywhere and it doesn't give you that much lift. I would just do a spacer and a new set of upper control arms .I think rough country makes them

I used this on a 86 Toyota 4x4 pickup your starter looks kind of the same.When i got the kit the plunger stem was pretty long so i had to cut it down .So measure the length of yours plus the diameter/thickness then contact the seller to find out if its the same.They ship really fast .If your plunger and contacts are getting eaten up check your grounds.
