....if you're going that high, you'll want an SYE, not a TC drop...also a double sheer TB, and possibly a steering upgrade depending on what tires you plan on running...can't tell from your sentence, but are you doing AAL in the back? Go full leaf pack if so....you'll thank yourself later...

You'll probably be ok with your steering then, any bigger you'd want to upgrade

Its not a necessity but youll have some pretty bad angles with out them and it'll ride pretty rough
