    This would be a great thread to have. My 2013 is paid off now and I can certainly do a lot to it. The problem is I don't know how to do anything. I would naturally pay a professional to do the work but I'd like to have some working knowledge when discussing the work to be done

    Billstein 5100 and OME coils. Depends on how much lift you want and what you want to accomplish. Simple search should answer many of your questions.

    Pending on how much of a lift will depend on Springs. The more weight you add to the front like skid plate,c armor bumper, and winch the stiffer the spring you will want to compensate for that weight. Our trucks really only have a 3 inch lift capacity. Read up there is plenty of info in the suspension thread.
    Edit
    Plus what do you want to do with the truck will depend on how you want to set it up, from rock crawler, sand toy, mall crawler, pavement princess, or all around good 4x4
