I will do a little more looking into it.

What about the lift kit? I am lifting the truck to fit my 37" tires under it. I have never had a coil set up before. I've bought leaf spring equipped trucks, and I work on tractors, and tractor trailers primarily. Coils are kinda new to me. Thats part of my stand off ish mentality.

The weight of the truck concerns me as well. The front suspension is not happy with all the weight of the winch and bumper. I can just add leafs if I need with leaf sprung suspension.

That and if I ever come across the money I plan to bag the truck all the way around.
