    OME Nitrocharger/2612 (front), Bilstein 5100s (rear). Vanguard roll bar modified (by me) to fit over Patriot Stealth retractable tonneau. Aftermarket halo headlights with HID, various LED bulb replacements. 17" Fuel Blitz wheels with some 33" Nitto terra grapplers. Hoodscoop, nfab nerfbars, Bushwacker flares. No-name aftermarket grille, led fender extensions. Black Horse bambi-basher. Various offroad lights.
    More than 3" lift, probably need the UCAs.

    If you go with King Coilover Extended Travel, yes you will need a UCA. We usually recommend a bushing/balljoint style upper control arm. We've had good luck with Icon Upper Control Arms. May want to look at complete packages

    Reference the diagram below and measure the shock length on the coilovers you have.
    Standard length fully extended is: 25.33"
    Extended length fully extended is: 25.7"
