Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement for 2011 Ram 1500 Crew Cab with Snow Plow
Question:
Im looking to put a plow on my truck and am worried a bit about sag. Do the Timbrens add any height to the suspension like a leveling kit? Or should I get a leveling kit in conjunction with the Timbrens?

Rubber jounce springs like the Timbren # TDR1525H2 that you referenced help support your suspension when it is under load, but otherwise do not affect ride quality (a good thing). They do not add height to your suspension. Do please note that the kit you referenced is a rear suspension kit for Ram trucks, but it does not fit your 2011 Ram 1500 Crew Cab.
If you need a front hitch for your truck to accept a snow plow we offer # 65062 from Draw-Tite. The installation of this item on your same year truck is shown in the linked video. The written instructions are also included for your reference.
Front suspension enhancement kits for your truck are shown on the link at right. If your truck is a 4WD model then the kit listed first, part # CSS-1168F from Super Springs, is an excellent choice that will deliver load support to your front end when the plow is installed but leave your ride unchanged when you remove the plow. This kit is easier to install than any air bag system and it requires zero maintenance. You cannot use an air bag kit in conjunction with jounce springs.
