    Im looking into new suspension, I take it offroading once a week but mostly use it as a daily. I was wondering what types of suspension would be the best, right now im looking at Dirt Kings 2.5 and their upper control arms with the 2.0 in the rear and all-pro 3 inch leaf springs in the rear. Is it a bad decision to not get the same size shocks in the front as the rear? Also what else besides those 4 things do I need for an effective upgrade from stock? I have a 2005 crew cab long bed with upgraded 265/70R17 tires and stock everything else.
