A list of what I think I need-
*Main eye bushing X2
*Shackle end Bushing X2
*Shackles X2
*Shocks X4
*Coil spacers (2") X2
* U bolts X4
Anything else? Any bolts that I'm forgetting?

2. For the re kit I mentioned will it settle at 6.5"? Maybe...?
3. Better off going with 33's or 35's for the te kit? Unless you're doing axle strengthening upgrades, stay with 33s or below.
4. Is the track bar in the re kit good? yes
