At the very least I'd get the progressive rear spring over the stock shock. I'm VERY happy with mine. A lot less sag and pretty nice improvement off road. It's a relatively inexpensive upgrade and worth every penny. I can't comment you'd be as happy since you've got 55lbs on me, plus your gear. For what that was worth... Karl
