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 truck caps & camper shells

A truck cap turns your bed into locked storage, a mobile workshop, or a shelter for the weekend. In the Valley we fit caps that survive the sun — aluminum and fiberglass that don't warp in 100-degree heat and seal out the fine dust that gets into everything.
