What is the WMS if I might ask? I'm just hoping I wouldn't need to buy new wheels for the 33's I'll be getting after my lift eventually.

So then is it safe to assume if I purchase a complete 3.5" lift with LCA and leaf packs, the only additional item I need it an adj track bar? What about drive line angles? should I purchase some various shims or drive it first? How can you adjust the front angle, adjustable LCAs?
Sorry to quote my own post but it got no hits last time. Yeah its a redundant question but I'm just trying to make sure I have all my ducks in a row.
thanks

yes adjustable trackbar, and either new longer brake lines or move the mount down.
As far as driveline - the front you don't need to worry about. For the rear you may not need anything at all. Do you plan on installing a SYE at the same time? If not may want to pick up a cheap transfer case drop kit to install just in case you get vibes.

Really handn't planned on the SYE. Will if I have to though. How does the transfer case drop work exactly? Obviously is lowers the case but how? Does it change the height of the mounts? Wouldn't that put additional strain of the motor mounts? What am I missing?

They usually lower it by 1". Spacers are put between the cross member and the frame and longer bolts are provided. Simple in idea, can be a major pain to do cause of rust.
