Nice man, get some sort of bump stop going stat...you dont want to hit your hydraulic lines or anything else.
Hocky pucks have been working well for me.

So I am looking to you guys for advice. This is not a daily driver so time is not a big deal. I am fairly good at working on my toy but have never attempted anything like this before. I know it want be cheap either way but it is the look I want for it.
So I am open to listen to your advice! What is a good product? Long or short Arm?
I recommend a long arm kit, but just be advised you'll more than likely have to cut your lca mounts off, and do a lot more drilling and such...but worth it in my opinion
