I did buy it already, I already have 212k miles so I didn't want to just keep dropping money into the truck with an expensive 6 inch suspension, me and my buddy both got this lift and it comes with all necessary parts for the body lift and he has not had any problems yet! (Knock on wood)

No the body lift is fine but that came with keys too

bumper lights (I had black plastic things in the bumper where fog lights go),
7" KC lights,
anzo tail lights
dual halo headlights,
17x9 ultra motorsports goliath wheels,
35" good year fierce attitude tires,
cranked T-bars,
dropin bed liner,
floor mats,
And a 5" lift kit, just bought it, havent put it on yet, it will be on next week.
Looks good all I'd suggest is black lightning headlights and maybe bed liner along the bottom of the truck

Make sure the hub to the fender is only 24.25" or less and you'll be ok. You don't even need keys

the guy putting my lift on said he would only go 2 inches with the keys, and if it's past 24.25" I'm gonna crank them down! Don't feel like buying a new front end right now
