    Hey all, long time lurker, first time posting! I have a 2007 DCLB that I'm just starting to play with, shooting for a DD/Overland style vehicle - will put a build together when I actually have something to show... Loving it so far though!

    My rear leafs are pretty tired at 260kkm, mostly the rear sits a bit lower than the front with just a Canopy on the back, the front has a top spacer/SPC UCA's. Looking to do a Dakar setup but I'd like to set it up so I can upgrade in the future given our crappy dollar atm and trying to invest in armor/recovery first (just built some sliders, now building a bumper etc.). What are your thoughts on this parts list for both now and the future (yes I've searched a bunch, trying to consolidate it all here)?

    Now:
    - 2X Dakar CS047R Leaf Packs
    - 2X OEM Bushings
    - 2X OME N182 Shocks
    - Longer U-bolts
    - CB drop kit (might need)
    - 3° shim kit (might need)
    - One of the squeak fixes (any suggestions/favorites?)

    Add/upgrade Later:
    - Shackle flip
    - U-bolt flip
    - Shock relocation
    - Extended brake lines
    - Fox or King 12"+ shocks

    Just want to make sure I'm not missing any parts or wasting anything on the first setup?
