First thing I'm tackling....
Downey HD coils for the rear. I'm tired of azz sag. I have bilsteins already, so I guess I just need the coils. Is there a way to order online? I absolutely HATE Downey's website. They don't really explain anything they sell. Anyway, do I hafta call them? I guess I can do that. I'm getting the 2" (okay 1 15/16ths) HD coils. I'm gonna go ahead and do a manual hub swap and replace the rotors with nwor slotted rotors and some new performance pads. I figure if I get the coils I need to lift the front a bit to match, and if I'm gonna be doing a hub swap, I might as well do the brakes while I'm at it. Is there anything else I should do to the brakes while I'm down there? I think I may also replace the master cylinder, I really should've done that a while ago. Maybe stainless steel brake lines? I don't mind spending the money or the time on it if it'll help in the long run...

As far as the hub swap goes, I think you actually don't even need to take your tires off. That may answer your brake question.
Also, you didn't say what you are going to do to lift the front? Cranked torsion bars? SAW's?

Cranking t-bars. Oh, SAWs are on my list of things to get done...I could do those, too! that'd be nice...get all the suspension work done at once! Does it make sense to get addco swaybars, too? I know they will roxxor my articulation or whatever, but if I have saws that I can release, will it really matter? I would like better handling on road...especially if I go up to 33s....

SAW's to release? Not sure how you are going to release those. Ya the Addco's will help on-road for sure, but like you said, they will degrade your articulation. However, you could buy a set of disconnect's to help solve that problem. I know they work for stock sway-bars, so I assume they would work for Addco's as well.

You can order your Downey coils from two places.
www.central4wd.com
You have to call, they don't show them,
or you can contact Mike on the board here who owns www.xtremeoff-road.com

Thanks a ton corey...you don't know how to get into xtreme-offroad's online catalog, do you? I've been to his site before, and it confuses the heck outta me...I click online catalog, and then it goes to this page about return policies, but there's nothing that looks like a catalog
