*Her* shock. Lol. 
Here's a pic of what it runs to. I had the boyfirend hold it for a pic before I secured it to the plate. The remote resivoir allows more oil to be in the shock to dissapate the heat better increasing time between rebuilds and decreasing fade and foaming. I like them a lot so far.
.... Now, If I could stop ripping CV axle boots, my front end would be pretty much done aside form limit straps and hydro bumps... But another day.

That is some serious hardware. You simply can't go wrong with any of the aftermarket upper control arms with heim joints. They are all really, really good. In order to see what you're really paying for, since they are around 3-4X the cost of regular upper control arms, you better be spending 80% of your time offroading and/or have a serious suspension and wheel/tire upgrade.

I only have about 2.5" of lift. I just used a spanner wrench and cranked the coilovers up to where my old skyjacker lift had my truck at. Just level. And Tradesman is right, I don't really see much of a reason to get uniball UCA's and whatnot and spend the money if you aren't gonna upgrade the rest of your suspension. I'm definately not offroad 80% of the time, but my boyfriend has a Dodge 2500 that is built up pretty well, and is part of this dodge offroad group called DTX (dodgetrucksxtreme) .... And If I do the rest of my suspension right... I intend to have myself a little f150 ram chomper. Lol.

I missed a question or 2. My kit that included my shocks and the upper control arms for $1,800. And I'm not sure what is ripping my Cv boots. I think I'm just one of the unlucky people who's truck doesn't get along with a leveling kit. I'm looking into a 2" differential drop, bit it is gonna have to be custom made.
