Make yourself a 1" body lift. You can buy polyeurethane tubes from Mcmaster Carr, drill, cut to size. With one inch, you can easily raise your bumper mounts and wiring harness should give. Plus your steering tube should be able to slide out enough.
nice try guys no can do for those of you that don't know a a B2500 is a full size Dodge cargo van and there unibody so no body lifts nope gota be springs or spindles
i guess thats part of the plan but i have a a dead spring on one side so far it seems moog and the rest of the after market doesn't cover that app

i put this ? up on the dodge van FB page [yes Vagina there is one] i think its from the land down under been up about 24hrs no response yet
Did this to an old ford years back. You will need to do some research on what trucks leaf springs are the same. Get some that are larger. Take your leafs to a suspension shop and have them make a new main leaf that's longer and maybe a few extra leaves added. You may ask the suspension guy if they can make custom coil springs too. Find out if the pitman arm on your van is the same size as the trucks( same spline count, shaft diameter ). Extended brake lines will probably be needed. The question is going to be how much time and money are you willing to put into such an endeavor. You won't see any extra resale value.
u tube shuda known yep thats the beast notice the 5 lug wheels there light duty 3/4 tons i know chevy [mom drove a 5 lug chevy G20 for years] make them too there sposta go to a converter for a 1/2 ton worth of interior the factory just BSs the gvwr to have some towing and cargo capacity left over thanks for the help now i gotta go thru his vids and see what he did
