Springs and daystar will give too much lift. Ditch the daystar get OME springs, 1/2" top plate, 3/8" clevis, upper a-arms and 4 extra rear upper spring isolators(stack 2 per side).

That'll get you a cool 3.5" of lift. 8)

Honestly, if you have shocks already then the a-arms(which will be needed after 3") and springs are your big money items.

You could do it in stages if you don't have the money all at once. Get the OME springs and top plate. Install those in front, in the rear install the OME springs and 1 extra iso per side. That'll be 3" of lift. Then when you have the money do the clevis and install the a-arms, then add the 2nd extra iso per side for the 3.5"/

What he said ^^^^^
With springs and spacer you'd have over or about 5 inches of lift and all sorts of issues . Look good sitting in the yard but thats it
Stick with 3.25-3.5 inches and be done

927/731 combo gets 2.5". I'd try talking to Gage and the other NJ guys. If you have tools and any mechanical skill you can do it in your driveway if need be.

Yup, that's correct.
There should be some shops in South Jersey. I used to live there, but can't remember any. Everyone has a lifted truck in South Jersey, so I'd imagine somewhere could install the lift if you can't yourself.

Easy to do yourself with a good basic set of tools.
I've walked many people through it over the phine on a Saturday afternoon. :lol:
Plus have had people I helped install theirs, maybe some over there close by that could help you install yours.
Its certainly not rocket science and only takes a few hours
