some say helper springs will sag.. mine havent yet but if your looking to lift anytime soon just get a lift with full leaf packs. also skyjacker sells 2.5 lift leaf packs.. you could get those and a spacer for the front.

Check the local yellow pages under "Spring" or "Automotive-Spring" ... might be a shop by you that does that.
They might be a little more money up front ... but by the time you factor in shipping on 2 leaf packs (at 35-38 lbs per pack) you might be ahead of the game. And you'd be supporting your local businesses too !

i don't think so but bushings arent expensive and you will probbly want to replace the u bolts.. it'd be a good idea. perches i don't think so.
