I got the original 3inch lift, pretty sure it comes with new upper bushings. I had planned on flipping the uca's also, thanks for the reminder though

They're the n8030's I think. Pretty sure you're the one who let me know about the need for the longer shocks and about the skyjackers back when...

The thing with the front struts is- I got the truck from my dad and just before he gave it to me he put new struts in the front so I kinda wanted to get some use outta them before ditching them for something better.
Thanks again for the replies and suggestions peeps! I've been searching out a set of used 265/70/17 tires local on kijiji all afternoon (damned 3.42 rear end). Its the only thing I don't have yet. I'm gonna get the Interco Trxus M/T's new in the new year but since the lifting got bumped up to soon, I'll need something for the interm.
