Default I AM LOST

well this is the problem im having. I find myself buying everything but my lift. For example bumpers, winch, rock sliders, 1 ton, aussie lockers, diff covers, picking up a dana 44 this weekend, roof rack, bushwackers, kc daylighters, and iv even been looking to buy the tires i want to run. So theirs my problem im having a lot of trouble deciding on a lift. I like the RE 5.5 but i dont know if thats big enough. Also how big can you go before you start having to play with your front drive shaft?
