I didn't have to replace any of the bolts for the front. I did replace my steering stabilizer since it was still stock. You will probably break the bolts on the upper rear shock. Whims for the rear may be a good idea. My leaf had them just check yours when you get them. I'm not running a sye yet and have no noticeable drive line vibes yet.

Took me a year to get mine. And I'm still not done. Just have to buy the rest slow so the wife doesn't get mad.

I'll keep a look out at the jy's I in them about 3 times a month.

It's good to have leaf spring bolts on hand. Once you get them out and see them, you'll want to replace them even if you don't have to. U-bolts are a wear part, and they should be replaced. As stated, Have shock bolts on hand, at least for the rear upper mounts.

yeah, I'm fine with replacing the hardware, as far as job, I'll be working the 12-8am shift at the detention center, and probably as a deputy as well. at least I would like to work that shift
