Fitting your RAM 1500

The RAM 1500 uses coil springs in the rear instead of leaf springs, which changes how lift kits and air-bag helpers are installed. The RamBox bed storage option changes tonneau and cap fitment. The Rebel and TRX trims are factory-lifted, and the TRX is much wider, so clearance parts differ.

What fits your RAM 1500

  • Three bed lengths — 5.7, 6.4, and 8 ft
  • Caps and tonneaus sized to your bed, with RamBox needing a different fit
  • Coil-spring rear means lift kits and air-bag helpers install differently
  • Rebel and TRX are factory-lifted, TRX with a much wider track

What we check before ordering

  • The RamBox option changes tonneau and cap fitment entirely

  • Coil-spring rear suspension means no leaf-spring lift blocks

  • The TRX is much wider — standard bumpers and flares will not fit

RAM 1500 fitment questions

Does the RamBox change what tonneau fits?

Yes. Trucks with the RamBox bed storage need a RamBox-specific tonneau or cap, because the bed rails are wider. We confirm before ordering.

How is lifting a RAM different?

The RAM 1500 has coil springs in the rear, not leaf springs, so there are no leaf-spring lift blocks. It uses coil spacers or replacement coils instead.

Can you fit a lifted RAM TRX?

Yes, but the TRX is much wider than a standard 1500, so bumpers, flares, and clearance parts have to be TRX-specific.

About lift kits & suspension

A lift kit isn't just about stance — in the RGV it's about clearing the mud after a hard rain, pulling a trailer down Highway 83, and getting real ground clearance on the dusty farm roads that connect the Valley towns to the surrounding ranches. Texas Tops has lifted hundreds of trucks in the Valley for 37 years, and we install what suits how you actually drive, not just what looks good parked.
