Final Lift Config. Opinions Please??

Okay guys, looking for the best bolt on and go system I can afford this is what I've come up with, let me know if this should take care of everything.

Rear suspension kit ON SALE $559
Rear 56" long travel springs
5100 Bilstein shocks (I will be opting out for the 5150s)
1.5" longer greasable shackles
Extended rear brake line
Rear Perch kit or flip kit
Heavy Duty spring hangers

Front Long Travel Springs(4" lift) ON SALE $199
All Pro Front Shock Hoops $89
Bilstein 5150s 2 shocks $178

All Pro Hy-Steer $449 = $19 IFS Box mounting brackets
- I already have a box off of my 86' parts Runner

That in my mind takes care of most everything I need for the suspension and steering to be upgraded. Please please let me know what you guys think of this set-up, I really need the input b/c I've never delt with a system like this and it's a bit intimidating. ALL suggestions welcome.

looks great!!!!!
You might want to have all pro throw in the axle rebuilt for you ($100) and has ever seal and bearing needed to overhaul your front end
Now all your gonna need is a cool rear bumper like mine

add: extended front brake lines


the axle rebuild is definetly a good idea, one tip: when you rebuild the axle do it one side at a time, not all together. helps keep things separated. and it doesnt come with EVERY bearing, you would have to buy the main wheel bearings (the real big ones that go around the spindle) somewhere else (napa etc, def not the dealer they are $$$ there, like $40 each and there are 4 total) but you'd hear it when you drove the truck if those had gone south cause they spin fast and hold the weight of the front end of the truck. the rebuild kit only contains the steering pivot point bearings
