4wheel parts messes up a ton of orders also so beware of that. I would highly recommend the 4:56's I love em. Also when you change out your gears and you drive normally it will extend the life of your stock transmission because it puts everything back in the same RPM ranges for shifts and cruising speeds. I had a stock tranny with 140k miles on it and no issues, I upgraded to an FLT because it was cheaper insurance than having it bust on me during a 6k mile road trip pulling trailers.

I went with a Pro Comp lift because it does not use a new spindel. It uses brackets that lower both the upper and lower control arms which keeps the front track width the same as stock. The spindel lifts increase your front track width which causes your front tires to extend out way past the body imho.
