A Dodge dont have torsion bars, its only Chevy's that used them in that era.

For the height thing you need new springs, air bags or lift blocks(If thats legal where you are, they get towed to truck jail for it here)

never ever use front blocks period dont even advise anyone on such a thing thats how people get killed. you need new springs if thats how you want to go.

Yeah if you put blocks in the front then you could very easily wind up with two rear axles and no front one.

check out superlift springs on 4 wheel parts. I'm running 1st gen springs under the front of my truck, I think they are 1.5" lift and were pretty cheap. ride is nice too.
