My main thought and concern is this. I know you'd want to reuse your new Bilstein shocks and run a 2" block. Can you run a 2" block with 15" tires and avoid scrub issues in case of a flat tire? I think I've read that you can run a 1.5" block in the rear without worry (unless you throw your tire completely off the rim ...)

Something to think about since your making a cross country trek ...

Everything else looks good to me.
