I know at one time DJM had kits for the 05 and back but nothing is showing up now.

I haven't done much looking for bolt-on stuff (kind of a do it myself as I get to it kind of guy). But, I can add insight to your question. Don't be scared of pulling springs out of the pack. I pulled the whole over load pack, and the longest leaf out of mine to make it sit level. Axle wrap has not been an issue for me. Mine is an 03 QC dually w/ 6 speed making about 450hp and 750tq. I don't haul a gooseneck, but my enclosed bumper pull has about a 400# tongue weight and it pulls like a dream and only lowers the rear about an inch when its hooked to it.

I had a customer that used all of the DJM 1/2 ton stuff on his 2003 Dodge. He said everything was the same, just needed to reinforce the control arms a bit.

I have lowered a few over the years......

In the front I cut the spring down a bit and built new upper arms that are .5" longer so you can get it aligned. I have heard that chassie tech has a kit out to drop them now but I havent looked to see if its true or not....
