I wanted to gain little more clearance off-road.

Here is before the install.

I ordered some coil spring spacers from Ebay.

As I was working on the front suspension, I noticed I needed upper and lower ball joints, I ordered new Moog upper and lower control arms from Rockauto.com. Of coarse I got an alignment after all was installed.

Out back I ordered Superlift add a leaf kit

Once installed I noticed the rear shocks were not fully extending as much as when the suspension is fully extended, so I ordered these Ram 2500 shock extensions, they only needed the factory shock hole drilled in a lower position than the provided hole.

For shocks, I went with Gabrel MaxControl Shocks.

Just for fun, I got some simple fender flairs, Super easy to install.

I'm not sure if I posted this but I also bought this bull bar from Ebay. This will do untill I want to spend some $$$ for a winch bumber.

For camping, I found a soft top camper shell from Bestop. I love the easy setup and disassibablity. Aluminum and fiberglass shells are heavy and you have to have somewhere to store them when not in use.
