I'd recommend the Bilstein 5100s if you're doing a leveling kit up front. I believe the Ranchos are made specifically for the stock Dodge application, so stretching them out 2" longer might give you some problems with full travel.

Yeah, you can do the Bilsteins up front and the Ranchos in the rear. That's not a problem.

As for the leveling kit, it's not hard to do. You can jack the front end of the truck up and let the axle hang free. You'll probably need to disconnect the sway bar end links and watch your brake lines and vacuum lines for the front axle as well.
