1. Sleeve and gusset can't go wrong with that and it's cheap insurance.
2. Transmission skid no one ever said "good thing I have to much protection".
3. Tie Rod only because at some point you'll jack up the stock one.
4. Anti-Rock I love mine it's nice not having to disconnect anything.
5. Rear Shock brackets I got them very nice upgrade just make sure your ready to re-route your exhaust.
6. Snatch block recovery kit I put this lower on the list because typically you can piece one together over time which will save you money. Also its good practice to wheel with a buddy.
7. Hi-lift it's nice to have it when you need it.
8. Storage drawer.
9. Lights and switches togther make the wiring easier. Lights look nice but for the cost how often do you use them?

Id swap out all the steering components and sleeve and gusset the front. I'd pick up some chromo shafts to run those 38's comfortably and I'd trade down to 5.13's if you want to keep your pinion gear in one piece.

5.38s are perfect on an auto with 38s. anything less would make it unbearable to drive. pinion didnt look like it was weak and with only the 3.8L, I'm not worried about it. I will be going with dana 60s when I get my 6.4L hemi.
