    Check out my build. With a new leaf pack you do not need new shackles. You also will not need new UCAs, but it's nice to have them. I have the toytec coilovers, which are very similar to the eibach/5100 setup and I also have the Dakar leaf pack and 5100s in the rear. I really like my setup. I also have my rocker panels herculined and trail gear bumpers front and rear like you mentioned earlier in the thread. A diff drop is a very good idea when lifting the front on 1st gens.
