probably don't have to do everything I did. one could probably get away with air shocks instead of helper bags. removing the overload leaf probably wouldn't be necessary, but mine rides pretty nicely for a swb lowered truck. fender rolling was only 70 bucks total, but I tipped the guy 20 to boot. the calmax shocks stiffen up pretty quickly when hitting bumps, so most of the time the axle won't hit the shorty bump stops. a wider wheel in the back would have been a bonus but I couldn't really find one with the proper offset that would keep the tires mostly under the truck. I was going to have wheels America widen mine, however I contacted them and they don't currently have anyone with skills good enough to make up a set like they've done for me in the past. a one inch wider wheel in the back would make the tires look a lot better I think instead of the donut action they've got going on now.

i'll post a new thread in a few days. I've been doing some performance related mods again since it isn't my daily anymore.
