In Search of 5" - 6" suspension lift kit

I am in the market for a 5 - 6" suspension lift. I have spotted a few, but I have never purchased a lift kit before. I am not a heavy off-road user. I want to run 35's and my wheels with zero rub. A 2" leveling kit failed.

This one is the one I am leaning towards...

Rough Country Dodge Lift Kits
2003-2007 4wd Ram 2500/3500 / Mega Cab 5" Series II Suspension

Kit Contents:
Heavy duty, tubular, upper and lower control arms, lifted front coils, pitman arm, sway bar links, track bar relocation bracket, (4) RC Hydro 8000 series shocks, u-bolts, and option of 3" or 4" rear blocks.

Description:
The upper and lower arms are longer than stock to rotate the axle for proper alignment, as well as greasable for long term performance. The drop pitman arm maintains the factory steering angles and the track bar relocation bracket properly centers the axle under the vehicle.

Notes:
• Does NOT fit dually models.
• Must know if rear axle is 3.5" or 4" wide.

Benefits:
• 100% bolt-on installation.
• Increased ground clearance.
• Maintains factory steering angles.

Specs:
• Install Time: 4 - 6 hours
• Wheel Backspacing: Factory
• Recommended Tire Size: 37x12.50

Priced at: $770

I'll help you put it on when you get it Rick.
You might want to copy this and post it over in the 3rd gen performance section for more exposure.

Thanks I am sure I will need the help.

The Rough Country set up looks pretty good for me. I have to figure out which size axle I have. It is asking for options 3.5" or 4" axle sizes. I have the heavy duty package on my truck.
