Re: Help me figure out what I need please.

The l92/4l80e combo is lighter so different springs would prob be best if within the budget. If the budget isn't that loose, cut a coil & see how you like it. Move forward from there.

Bags in back are definitely the way to go. Better ride & easily adjusted for working loads or all the extra gear a burb can carry.

Stock height shocks would work fine w/just 1-coil removed. Worst case you could slightly raise the upper shock mount if it was too close of a compromise on shock stroke length available. The Monroe-Matic gas shocks are pretty decent. For the rears, I would check w/Rob & the crew @ NoLimits to see if their shock relocation brackets can be used w/stock length shocks. That set-up seems to be well thought out as far as shock stroke & angles vs the OE truck-arm location.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
