I did the LC coils in the rear. Gave me 3.5-4" lift.
You will need to buy a panhard bar drop bracket, longer shocks and possilby a longer rear brake line. Don't forget to extend your LSVP bracket as well.

They do ride smooth, the only thing i don't like about them is they are too soft for what i like.

They flex like crazy with the longer shocks and disconnected sway bar. I never tried them with the sway bar on but I bet it would help some of the lean if people don't like that.

I kept mine on and it still rolls a lot. I took my rear sway bar off just to see and it was to the point where it was SCARY.
When i sas'd my truck it helped a LOT with the body roll though. im hopeing with the rear leafs most of the body roll will be gone.

Too soft for you, simple increase the valving on the shocks.

I don't run a sway bar and I have a locker in the back. Takes a little time to get used to but I would never go stock again. Now if I could just double the transfer case cheaply then I could climb just about anything. I can climb steep hills but I lose my momentum and the 3.0 can't keep up with the weight and gravity.
