Why not use Seafoam? Seafoam was designed to clean out engines and your fuel system. It's about $8 at Walmart.

Rebuilt 703 injectors will be nice
Champion Copper plugs are what you want. Cheap and your 4.0's like them.
Live wires are nice.
I'd but everything else from the parts store.
I run the Hayden cooler from O Reilly in series after the rad on mine, gauge isn't installed yet but so far so good. That unit should suit you just fine, or any larger one from the JY wouldn't hurt it.

Thanks for the advice from everyone (idk how to qoute each person at once can you?) ay way I ended up just get the top shelf stuff from #1 plugs wires, dist cap, rotor, and fuel filter. The live wires sound nice but I can't aford them at 80+ dollars the ones I'm getting are 30 so thats a bit more in my range I'm picking it all up monday
Thanks!

You need to remove them, figure out how much up-travel you want to allow then trim the stop to the correct length.
I'd guess you'd want about 3"s of up travel but that's just a ballpark guess.

Currently running 31x10.5x15s on stock 15x7 rims with 5.25 BS. I found a set of 15x8.5 rims with 3in of backspace. My only concern is hub stress. Any input before I pick them up?

My current wheel setup fits my 3in lift very well. I only have slight tire running in the rear wheel wells when flexing however theres only an inch or so of clearance between my leaf springs and the rear tires which bothers me. Id like a 4in bs rim however I found a good looking set of rims with 3in bs. I like the wider stance for off camber wheelin however Im not trying to kill bearings.
