2inch spring (d25)

Im looking to level the front end and I would rather replace the springs. Question is, I called the local 4wheel parts house to ask about the d25, they said this was only for 95-01 models and no listing on 3rd gen.
Will the d25 spring work ok on a 3rd gen, mega-cab to be exact?
Are there any other springs I should be looking at instead?
Thanks

Nevermind, Im gonna call Coil Spring Spec. tomorrow.

I have them on mine also but there are better out there, my D25's have sagged from 2.5" to 1.5" in the time I have had them.

I am having skyjacker 2.5 diesel springs installed tomorrow with bilstein 5100s . I have a Warn bumper ( 400# ) , I will let you know how it turns out . Superlift also has a 2in. diesel spring that is reasonable . I went with the skyjacker for the extra half inch due to the bumper .

you can just do the springs, but it is a good idea to get shocks, everything else will be alright

Just springs and shocks is all that is needed unless you go 3 or more inches. New bump stops come with the Superlift (price range of $233-250 ). I am paying $200 plus 100 for install for the Skyjacker . I ordered the Kore billet drop blocks for the anti-sway bar to keep it at the stock angle . Shop around for the Bilsteins . I found a price range of $79- 115 for the same shock .

I just ordered the Skyjacker 2.5 coils ans should have them in by next week. I plan on running the AR Mohave Teflon Wheels w/ 35x13.5x18 tires. What bolt pattern and backspacing should I go with for that lift/wheel combo?

Why do springs and not just spacers? Also how much were the swaybar drop brackets from Kore?

The billet drop brackets from KORE go for $110 on their website under the accessories and price list pages. They look pretty cool, I'm gonna have to order me some!

Called Coil Spring Specialists today to order my new springs. It looks like Dodge changed the springs in 06 and they dont have a "sample" spring yet. Guess Ill have to wait a little longer to get my leveling springs.

Those Kore brackets look pretty cool.


Oh well.

I have the springs and bilsteins installed . Looks great ! The truck ( with my heavy bumper ) is level . The front would probablly be higher without the Warn bumper , and could be a little to stiff . But for me , it worked great !
