Default Which suspension lift ???????

Ok I am wanting to purchase my lift as soon as my tax return gets here. I am just unsure which kit it best and the most complete. Also do I need anything else that the kit does not have.

Do everything in the right order and you'll spend a lot less money in the long run.

Maybe brake hoses. Otherwise you should be fine. Lifting period is going to kill your mileage, gears won't really help offset that.

The first one if it had new springs for the rear.

I would go for the first one with the add a leaf upgrade instead of the blocks, also add sway bar drop brackets, track bar relocation bracket and drop pitman arm. Also get a new set of lower control arm cam bolts from the dealership. You are going to break the old ones taking them off. Make sure you get them from the dealership because all the other ones the eccentrics are too small.
