we do a kit which gives you sway bar spacer blocks, bump stop spacers for rear, new top plate for shock mount, and longer front shock, so you have a 10" front travel shock, and a 12" rear shock travel, with 3-4" springs.

You need aprox 35mm spacer for long shocks on the front sway bar.

we extend the links on the rear, stop them hitting the shocks.
