What about stabilizer bar? Lower control arms only what about upper? On a budget like all of us. So only want to do the necessary. Plan on a 3" lift kit.

replacing arms
Do the lower arms first then the upper arms, dont remove both at the same time OR the axel will move and will need re aligment.
Replace all the sway bar rubbers as well and poss drop links as they will all be past their best.
Remember the truck weighs best part of 2 tons and the bushings will be shot.

Depending on what lift you get you might not want to go and get new LCAs yet. If your kit comes with arms save the money and just do the bushings
