I just checked and it's about $35 for the pair! I haven't heard if this one... Does it need to be a 2500 4x4 since they sit higher, or just a 2wd?

IIRC mine were from a 2wd. I also believe mine were from a 1500. The only stipulation was IIRC was it had to be a v8

Any v8, since Chevy has 5.2 and 5.7? Another question, is there a mod for the rear, instead of buying the high priced kits? I haven't heard of mods for rear, just can't remember at the moment.

Yes any v8, honestly I can't remember what I did to the back, I will look under tomorrow to see. Have you thought about bump stops?

I WILL be bumpstopping accordingly, just worried about droop. I will use limit straps right till about the coil decides to pop out, want the brake lines to be okay. 4.5" lift, long arms.
