Keeping rear coils, AP kit spring height?

So I'm running the Option #1 https://www.yotatech.com/forums/show...ght=trdparts4u

but I don't have the rear coil spacers installed as the HD springs are pretty incredibly tall and they weren't needed.

I figure another 2" of rear lift when adding the coil spacers.....so with the all-pro off road kit (on my 31x10.50's) http://allprooffroad.com/index.php?o...ask=view&id=42

Should I do the 4" or 5" lift springs? Also, is it worthwhile to upgrade to the 5150 Bilsteins vs. the 5100s?

I don't plan on doing the rear leaf conversion quite yet, I've got a bit of work ahead obviously to complete the front, so I'm not going to consider that yet....aside from the fact that I'll need new gears and a locker in the new axle.

I am running long side LC coils, All-Pro adjustable upper links, an adjustable panhard bar with panhard drop bracket, and my front is still a little higher.

I would not waste too much money on the rear coil setup. Eventually you will need to do a leaf conversion to make it right....I know I need to soon.

so you kinda pieced together your SAS parts rather than buying a kit, I see.

Is it working well for you? What did you use for steering?
