Hey Kris, The fronts no problem. You may have trouble with the exhaust were
it goes over the rear. I had to modify my Gibson by adding about a 4" pc in
each
"over the rear pipe". Had to bring it up close to the bed to get enough
travel.
My rear drop is 4". My understanding is the RT is 1" lower than the sport,
if you
go 3", it will be the same as my 4" drop. It won't leave you much travel,
about
2 3/4" to be exact,. Thats with changing the stock rear bumpstops out for
some
poly pancake ones. How are the roads where your from? My advice to the rest
of the guys is not to go more than 3" (which I believe would be 2" for the
RT)
Unless of course you plan to do a c-notch

I haven't changed my sway bars yet, can't help you there. Are you using the
Hotchkis Sport Leaf Springs and their 2" coils for the front?
