Ok, so I've debated and debated... I can't figure out what I do and do not need... I don't like to spend money where I don't need to...

I'll be contacting RB to get the parts... And here's what I'm looking at...

1.5" Lift - to better clear tires (305's) and a more aggressive stance

-- I have an ARB winch bumper, and am fabbing my rear bumper this weekend.
------ No front bumper brackets...
-- Steering extension? Yes/ No?
-- Radiator Drop Bracket? Yes/No?
-- 9th/10th Body mounts? Are they really needed?

Any other issues, parts, general "stuff" I need to consider?

Thanks for helping answer my newb-ish question guys!

first, do you have a 96? thats what the extra two body mounts are meant for. if you do have a 96, id recommend them especially with a body lift of that size.

you dont need a front bumper bracket.

steering extension, yes!

radiator drop bracket, if it was a 1", you can get away without one, id recommend one for a 1.5" though

spend the extra money and get the larger OD blocks, its worth it. also spend the money and get the heavy duty hardware, its also worth it. if you are going to do a body lift, do it right!

Yep, it's a '96... And I'm leaning towards exactly what you said, just wanted to hear someone else, who knows what they are talking about, confirm it for me! Thanks, Sean!
