[QUOTE="elMechanic, post: 1613635, member: 46781"] 1. I still have the OEM shocks, but once I decide to upgrade to 3.0s I will go with King 3.0s as the Fox 3.0s actually have a 2.5" piston 2. I don't know about the SVC UCAs, however, from what I have searched, GENERALLY, it's better to get UCAs with bushing rather than HEIMs, so I went with BajaKits UCA. 3. with regards to the SVC Tie rods, I already have them installed a couple of days ago, and with the very short experience of them, they are way better than the stock ones, would recommend them for sure 4. same here, installed SVC adjustable bump stop kit (with king 2.5" bump stops) 2 days ago, still didn't have the time to check their capabilities, but from what I have read through different threads, they are awesome. especially with having the option to change the height of them depending on your use (offroading/towing). 6. I went with +3 Deavers, added an extra 1" to the stock ride, but I did install the EIBACH Springs instead of the OEM coils on the OEM shock (until I decide to move to 3.0" King shocks), and it's level. however, from what I understood, is if you upgrade the Shocks to 3.0" it will get leveled as well (someone corrects me on that if I am mistaken) If you are planning to go Mid Travel, let's say the SVC Bolt-On MT Kit, you cannot buy parts separately every time, you need to buy the whole Mid Travel kit at once, as the OEM shocks won't fit (SVC have them custom made with some stuff, don't remember which parts) and the Tie Rods in the MT kit comes in a different size than the one they sell (OEM replacement Tie Rod) .. so basically they have 2 sizes of tie rods, OEM replacement and MT compatible one. (All of this I got from SVC directly, when I asked them about it a few weeks ago, as I was planning to do the same, upgrade certain parts every while until I complete the full SVC MT Kit, but that doesn't work) I don't know anything about RPG parts/kits, sorry.
