Here's a link to Kenny's excellent write up about replacing the front rotors and repacking the front bearings. It also has a link to the Planet Isuzu write up on the same thing. I used both of these when I did my rotor replace/ front bearing repack and everything came out just fine.

Like Bart said, you really only need the springs to lift. Ldub lifted my VX in a parking lot in Moab, and the only thing that I have had to do was to get the front end re-aligned. Other wise the stock shocks are just fine and so far my CV boots are good too.
