I would do the sliders, and some type of under carriage protection first then a really good recovery bag with proper straps, high lift. ... then lift n tires at the same time .. then bumper with winch.

The reason im starting with the lift is I can get the donahoe coilovers for 600 and I cant pass that up.

thats fine .. but its going to look funny lifted up 3-4 inches with dinky stock tires and no point in having coilovers and keeping them at stock height. .. so now your spending $1200 on rims and tires and another $3-400 for the rear.

You don't want to bang up a new truck so throw in $250+ (installed) for some new sliders. and now you've officially entered the yotatech world of empty pocket books ... there is no such thing as a "single" mod.
