Default 3" body lift

I decided to get a 3" body lift instead of 2" so i don't have to trim the fenders at all to fit 33s. If the tires still hit i'll just get bump stops so the tire can't go up that far.

on a 4x4, are the brake lines and steering shaft long enough for the extra inch of lift? anything else i need to consider vs a 2" lift?

as for the blocks themselves, where do the 2 skinny blocks go? Should i just get all 3" wide blocks?

Zone blocks are about a dollar cheaper a piece, but performance accessories use thicker nylon. Will the cheaper blocks hold up, or will my cab be laying on the road 50 feet in front of the frame if somebody hits me head on?

Grade 5 or grade 8 bolts?
