From what I have read around the various forums, if you want low buck, stick with your stock coils and add Cornfed spacers to them with Bilstein shocks all the way around.

If you want to go the ultimate setup, then Steve S's setup with the SAW coil overs in the front, and Downey 2" springs in the rear.
His setup is nice, and he can compensate for the TJM bumper & winch up front with the SAW's.
Of course that is the more expensive route, and the way I'd go if I had a 3rd gen.

Steve has done an extremely big amount of R&D in this department.
The word is out too that OME coils may sag on you, and also not give you much lift.
They were never really designed to give you much lift, as they are a suspension component part of a set meant to be used with their shocks, and give you an overall better ride off road.
They are meant for a ride package, and not necessarily a lift.

Yeah, you can't go wrong with the first setup I mentioned.
