Thanks, SpecialK, but I guess I wasn't clear in my original post. I'm not necessarily interested in trying to hold onto any of the existing hardware. In fact, the 4x4 shop that will be doing the work will take the shocks and anything else that comes off the truck as trade-in for the labor and whatever additional components we need to complete the job. Already have the low profile tires mounted (275/60 Uniroyals, not in picture).
