Piece your kit together, way better.
I'd say:

Re 5.5 Coils
RE 4.5" leafs
jks 1.25 shackle
Rock Krawler 3 or 4 link
Bilstein 5100s
SYE
OTK steering (Serious, JCR, Custom)
Chevy 1500 Front brake lines
Dodge Dakota rear brake lines

Going to be expensive to do it right..

If your looking for an all in 1 kit..look at what Seriousoffroadproducts.com has to offer.. but if it was me I'd piece together a lift with what I suggested.

Just as an FYI you'll be in about 2000-3000 to do it right.

thanks for your advice xj88! it looks like a lot of guys swear by r.e. springs front and rear. don't recommend their long arms? do you get more flex out of the rear by using a smaller spring pack w/shackles?
