Currently:. 2006 LC with 110k and in real clean shape. Added Slee medium package with diff drop and ucas. Shocks are ome niitro. Tires are Toyo 285/75 RTs and I'm very happy with them

Phase deux:

Ordered Kiss drawer system
Improve shocks... Not sold on ome shocks. Looking at icons and slees shocks... Any thoughts on those two?
Boost rear springs to drawer system? Which springs?
Sliders...me needs them but me wants to fabricate them too.
And the big kwhuna...rear bumper????
 
I have Slee shocks and they have been the best upgrade I've done, hands down. Completely changed how I feel about my rig. PM if you want more info.

Slee heavies for the rear springs are working for me. Rear springs are such a subjective thing. All depends on your load out.

White Knuckle was my choice on sliders. Very happy

Rear Bumper: Slee again. Love mine!
 
If you plan to wheel it, get sliders first over anything.
Front or rear bumper gets damaged, who cares, upgrade to an off-road bumper whenever. Rocker panel gets mangled, you might not be able to open that door and you are looking at possibly a couple grand for a repair.

This is probably a good point. I'll generally use it to access hunting and fishing spots, so primarily high speed back roads, though the crawl comes into play from time to time.

Thanks for the info. I'll probably do heavy springs and drawers soon, then sliders, then the rear bumper and shocks since they should probably be called accordingly.
 
I agree with @guardcompany that Slee shocks are one of the single best upgrades I have done, not for capability but for quality of control and feel. It made the truck really fun to wheel fast (too fast at times) which before was far from it's core competency. They make especially good use of our very limited front travel.

I also agree that sliders should be close to the top of the list, they protect the most body work and hit the earth most often so total no brainier for me.

I wish you guys wouldn't say this....I really want those shocks but they're not cheap.
