i am looking at summit racing for these
Bilstein 24-185219 - Bilstein Heavy-Duty Series Shocks and Struts - Overview - SummitRacing.com

As for shocks, don't spend alot if your going to lift it soon, cause then you'll need new ones(unless you just do bodylift) Bilsteins are good, some guys like Rancho.
AS for pads I like Hawk pads, but others will chime in what they like.
Spark plugs use Ford motorcraft plugs platinum

which spark plugs? ACF-SP459 ,ACF-SP432 or ACF-SP417 ? summitracing don't have exact codes that manual says or couldn't find.

Actually i want lifting but here in Turkey it could be a pita installing. If i need some specific parts during installation it is impossble to find. Do you knowan absolute all-in kit? last weeknd i stucked on a 50 cm snow and this was a huge disappointment...

cheap lift would be cranking the torsion bars to raise the front and coil spacers on the rear for a 2" lift, then a body lift from performance accessories for an additional 3" lift.... and last a supension lift from zone offroad or fabtech for another 6".....

plugs- SP-479 motorcraft or autolite APP103 (I run autolites)
