    About $600 for Calmini kit....
    About $180 for Old Man Emu rear coils and T/bar crank using stock shocks.
    About $380 for Old Man Emu rear coils, Rancho 9000's and t/bar crank.

    I guess whether or not it's necessary is irrelevant since I didn't pay for nor install it. I'm just making sure that it's quality equipment. Same with the intake. It all came with the truck. I'm just wondering if I can stick with what I got, or if it would be best to change out some parts.

    I still run Calmini shocks because I like the extra length...
    ...their coils do tend to weaken however...and I changed those to OME's

    Hot shot is good too... Morgan tech is really just a personal preference

    Seems to me you have the basis of a really good set up...
    ...and can drive as is , until you get the feel.
    Then alter to suit your own 'wants'
