I have a 5.5" RE that is not getting picked up anytime soon I don't think, needs some pieces but it would be a great place to start and save some $$$

All you need to make sure of is that the tires won't rub at stock height and you can probably get away with a budget boost lift and run 31-32" without problems. Just won't have loads of flex. I think cf1K1 may have a budget boost lift he may part with...

That's a good way to start. Check with cf1k1 and see what he has left from doing his recent swap from a BB kit to 5.5". I have that 5.5" kit, it needs a few items but for the price it is just as much as a 3" kit...has full leafs, springs, and shocks(1 is bad). would need a track bar and drop bracket, drop pitman arm, new shock, and maybe some bolts and such.
