Question on Installing Coil Spacers

In an effort to raise the front of my truck a little bit, I'm thinking of ordering THESE.

First question, has anyone installed these? What is involved in installing them and about how long does it take?

Second question, if I install them, are there any other modifications that would have to be made because of the higher ride height in the front end??

Thanks.

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

I am guessing that you would need new front shocks with another 1.5" travel. Also a wheel alignment.

Re:Question on Installing Coil Spacers

I've never done a lift on a Ram but the front suspension is pretty much like the ones on the Jeeps. And from my knowledge of working on Jeeps, I'd say it should take around an hour to and hour and a half do just spacers. It just depends on if you need to use spring compressors to remove and the put the coils back on.

Remember, Hoss's truck is a 2WD so that might effect things.

No idea myself what is involved with the 2WD.
