Is There a Timbren Kit Solution for 2012 Ram 1500 with 6 inch Lift
Question:
I have a 4WD Ram 1500 with a 6inch suspension lift. I am needing something to help with the squat when I have my toy hauler connected. Since I am lifted, the factory rake is gone making the squatting more extreme. Would this product work with my setup? I am looking for alternatives to AL88370. Thank you.

The Timbren kit part # TDR1500DQ does fit your 2012 Ram 1500 and will reduce sag from trailer towing but since you have a lift kit installed you will need to also install spacers to take up the additional space your frame has between it and the rear axle. For that we have the part # A25723-90AH00 which is a single 1 inch spacer. You'd need to order a quantity of these for every inch your vehicle suspension was raised X2 since you need them for both sides of the axle. Not all 6 inch lifts give you a full 6 inches of additional suspension lift. Most are around 4 we've found.
That said I'd recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of your lift kit to verify if they recommend towing a trailer with their kit installed and also mention the weight of the trailer.
I also attached an install video that shows a similar Ram truck with a similar Timbren kit installed that uses the spacers as well for you to check out.
