Re: level kit
Where'd you get the 3" kit? EBay? What brand is it?
And no, you typically don't need to change out the shocks just because of the leveling kit. You just need to change out the shocks because the stock shocks are very middle-of-the-road quality items. It's not mandatory though.

Re: level kit
Oh, and a 3" lift on a 4x4 will most likely end up with your upper arms and coil buckets meeting in a not so kind manner.

Re: level kit
Your upper control arm will hit the coil bucket with that kit. With that much lift, you might actually damage the arm and/or coil bucket.

Aftermarket upper control arms. PRG and Total Chaos are the best of the bunch for direct replacement. Camburg ones are junk, I know from experience.
