I'd try em for what you want, lots of guys up here in gillam use em , they seem to like em
you could hit you're local kal tire/bridgestone dealer and get a set of these (baja widetrack m/t's) I've had good luck with em

d20's coils are like 200-250 bucks top and lift the front 2"
they'll stop the nasty bottoming out on rough backroads at speed even with the stock tires
the d201k kit gives you add-a-leafs for the rear, I think national4wd in calgary wanted 260 bucks for the kit
guy at work is running the d20's up front with 285 BFG's all round on his 99 1500 ........looks cool
oh yeah I forgot you live in alberta.........you probably don't have rough back roads [img]smile.gif[/img]
just buggin ya, looks good the way it is now too.......

I know three other people with the all terrains, and they all bottom out like hell, mines much better now. One of them came out with me yesterday, and he's like...f*** maybe it's just the tires, but they still bottom to easy for me. Those d20's sound worth it, thanx.
Oh, and we have places go man. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Next time i go out, i'll try and remember my camera.

hey, how much lift can you guys get out of those Rams before you gotta start extending the steering and drive shafts? Oh and what's the limit on tire size in those? could you fit a 35 in those fenders with a lift?

my 2500 wil rub slightly at full compression at stock height and 315's (35's), back fits no problem (it sits 2-3" higher from the factory)
you can add the skyjacker d25's (2.5" lift) to that with no susp mods and run the 35's with no rubbing, my 33's look small with the lift
the 1500's sit about 2" lower, 285's (33's)will fit with no lift but rub a bit at full lock on the steering
you can throw the d20's on the front (d25's would fit but they are made for the 3/4 ton diesels and may be too stiff on a 1/2 ton) with no mods and the 33's will no longer rub
to run 35's on a 1500 you need the 4"/5" lifts most make and they are major mods .........like new arms, arm mounts, track bar relocation brackets ect.......
here's the d25's and a dual shock kit from BDS on mine ..........notice I still run the stock center shocks (they were still good , why change em)
full size pic
her's the 33" tire .............lots of room in the wheel well

BTW Pete, suposedly you can run a 30x9.50-15 on your jeep stock (friend of mine just got a larado and that's what he's putting on

hmm....I would have thought a 35 would be a bit too much, I hate the fenders on the Rams, they look so huge, hard to fill. The stock tires look really small in those fenders.
Some day I'd like to get a Ram 3500 extended cab dually, diesle. Maybe after I get a house and settle down a bit with a good job, I think it'd be cool to have a dually on 38's
