i was thinking about getting the 2.5 RC progressive rate coils it seems to be a good lift and a good price i was wondering if besides the coils and shocks if there is anything else i should get that would be a good idea such as rear trac bar relocation? t-case drop? sye? also would it be better to install a 1" BL or a 1" coil spring spacers? i want to run 33" tires

I am currently searching for a lift myself, enough to fit 33"s, and I have almost decided on this lift. I'm going with the combo option they offer, comes w/ that 2.5" lift, 1.25" BL, and transfer case spacers. I tried finding out more info and I think this is all that will be necesary but I'm not 100% sure yet. Good luck!

ya i have read alot about the lift and it seems really good i just would rather get everything i need to get and install it all at once instead of forgetting something and haveing to get back under there and i hear the back axle can shift alot thats why i am wondering about the trac bar relocation bracket

You can get a 2" BB and run 33's. I ran one like that for years till I went with the RE superflex kit. Save the $ and don't buy the RC kit. Do your lift once!

the prices are on the website underneath the kits. If i were you i would save up and buy the deluxe kit. this is a complete kit that comes with OME shocks, springs, 1.25 BL, 1.25 MML, extended bump stops, rear trackbar relocation bracket, and JKS Quicker discos. to me its a better bang for your buck if your lifting your rig. with using this kit you wont need the SYE/CV to get rid of vibes. the way dirk designed these kits was to utilize stock suspension angles. and for $855.00 your getting a pretty good deal. you can run up to 33's and you dont have to worry. give him a call atalk to him about what you're trying to do and he can help you out.
