I found my coils locally and the shocks in the for sale section for $40... Honestly, they are quite common in the for sale section...

Thanks Battlefrog - I just took a look and found a nice package on there, PM'd about it. Do you know if I would be looking for only the shocks/springs or are the control arms etc. upgraded on a Rubi as well? Are there any additional parts I would need to get this lift up and running?

Just the shocks and coils... The control arms and pitman arms should be the same. Also, take a look at your coils, there should be a sticker on them, look at the last 2 digits... Front coils on yours may be 15,16 or 17's and the rears might be 55,56 or 58's. Your looking for 18/59 or 19/60 for your purchase in order to upgrade. The higher the number the better... With 18/59, it leveled out front end and raised the back. The rubi shocks are much beefier and much better ride... Let me know if you need any help figuring out what it is being offered to you...

As for parts, 2 jackstands (4 would be better) and a jack with at least 17" of lift and a 2x2 to place under front & rear dif while jacking... 10, 16 - 18 mm sockets and open end wrenches...
