Yup, it isn't cheap.
I haven't found another 2" rear drop kit so if you happen to discover one be sure to share. :)

A couple months back I asked Norcal SS this very same question for my Burb and he stated "djms are 175 shipped and will work fine in that truck." so you might hit him up. 175 is pretty darn cheap if they're still at that price point :waytogo: He said it's something you can do in the driveway within an hour or less.

I don't think you need shock extenders. When I did a buddy's truck we just used these:

$180 is pretty reasonable.

I used the Belltech rear 3"-4" springs, which are said to really be 2.5"-3.5" on autoride trucks. I used the 1" spacer, and I also used the shock extenders. There's little doubt in my mind that the shock extenders DO help, at least by putting the shock in a better position. I think the travel extension is beneficial, too.

You can always try it out without them and then add them later. But I think they're a good addition.

autoride shock extenders are needed. if you call belltech up you will be told the same.

if you do not do the 34324 I would do the 5301 springs and buy shock extenders. I really dont like doing the autoride trucks without the shock extenders. Shock angle is much better also with the exenters and without the extenders the truck will keep on trying to lift itself up which in turn will not get the drop you need out of it and the autoride shocks will get killed. I've had a few trucks I've had to fix other shops screw ups when they did the same drop without extenders.
