good choice, theyll bite down in anything. go ahead and plan to have your stereo up cause these things sing and at low speed theyll shake coins out of your ash tray

lift that f'er up. start with bodylift and level kit, probably cost just under 400.00, and about 10 hrs of your time.

Yes you do, you just dont know it yet. Whats the worst that can happen? You dont like it and buy a lowering kit like you might anyways and are able to sell a lift kit instead of get rid of a stock suspension... Look at it like that.

you can install leveling keys easy enough, but you'll need a really big C-Clamp or better yet, a specialized tool for it. Most auto parts stores will rent the tool cheap.
But be forewarned, you won't have much room for any wheel articulation and your stock shocks will bump and wear much sooner.
My advice, get a level kit and if you can't swing longer shocks, get a kit with the shock relocation bracket, and if you are gonna be any more than a pavement queen, save you up about $400 and plan a body lift next...
