The dirt king kit uses oem replacement coilovers from fox, King or icon. For the rear I would go with a deaver leaf pack and bolt in bypasses. Easiest and cheapest option.

It will be a lot cheaper than doing the front. Leafs from deaver are around $800 and bypasses are around $1600ish depending on options. I would talk to dirt king about what height your leafs should be.
