Has Anyone Raised a DODGE Roadtrek (1999, Pop)?

Well, just watch out for expedition portal; it sucks you in! Another fab site.

thanks for the link.I will save it for my project.

Apology accepted. And see post right above yours. I always post what I find (when I can find it.)

FWIW, the RT aspect is, IMO, a different lift experience than for a simple dodge van...got a genny hanging out the butt, water tanks, etc. So that's why Sportsmobile won't be helpful to me.

I certainly am not a candidate for "not wanting to look elsewhere".

Nuf' said on the personal stuff I think.

Please accept my deepest and humble apologies.I did not notice the date.I still recommend Sportsmobile forums.I will change your grade to a B+ (class C,inside joke inspired by endless debates here) because you didn't want to check other sources.BTW.I would like to raise my van also and as I understand it,this should also be coupled with a locking differential.This is discussed at the Sportsmobile forums.I also wish to put forth a word of defense for the members here.Tis the season for travel.Hope you find your answers and please share them when you do.Gracias, Stan

SCORE! http://mrpulldown.blogspot.com/2009/11/road-trek-lifting-94-dodge-van.html

And good ol; expedition portal:

Finally. Not sure how helpful it will be, but it's a start. Posting for others information.

Yep, thanks AZ, been there (and everywhere I could think of) and that's not a dodge lift. Can't find a Dodge that's been done...though I do know a place that will do a dodge lift (not sure how they feel about RTs though). But I wouldn't even consider getting it done until I learn from another what they went through.

Oh, and PS to anyone who wants to send me to another b forum....no one there seems to have done it on a Dodge either.

Maybe I'll just have my mechanic (who is familiar with roadtreks) do a bit of tweeking...springs, blistens, maybe an airbag.

But really folks...I'm soooo disappointed in you! I expected so much more.

(Stomps off in a huff a' la teacher who's just given an F to an A student) :W

Try this link, it's a long thread so you will have to do some reading. Remember it's still a Class B and rough roads can cause a lot of damage to elect. systems, appliances, etc.

As far as I know, that thread is only about Chevies. Whether you can lift a Dodge would depend on what front springs were available. Air bags for the rear are available, IIRC.

Let's be fare here Stan, it was 2 days, and did you really need to post that. :(
Susan, go over to Marco's "Class B forum", and you will find a couple of people who did it.

Really!! ,Really!!!! . You expect an answer in less than 2 hours. I'm giving you an F in patience,but just in case you are really interested and not just stirring things up,then go to Sportsmobile forum (yes. A different forum) . They deal in off road and dirt roads all the time. Best of luck.

Well, I have to take you to the academic judiciary committee for the "F", because it's been 2 days, not 2 hours.

And I have to say, you're the first person to ever imply I might be a "stirrer". Yeesh, just trying to give a two-day old question a bump.

I'm looking for people who've done this to dodge roadtreks; not just a dodge; so I don't think Sportsmobile will be too helpful, but I'll check it out. (Just in case you're not trying to stir things up.)
