Thuren/Carli = best

Kore = nice/cheapest for springs and shocks

Spacer = cheap and not a bad way to gain another 2" especially with 5100s

** best spacer going is, www.hellbentsteel.com **

Honestly if all you want to do is level the truck and no future suspension plans, I'd just buy a set of 2" spacers, 5100s all around, and the brace couldn't hurt if it's still tight. Hellbent's stuff is top notch, OEM style studs on the spacers etc.

Springs do more than just make the ride comfy it'll change the way it handles too. I am a picky SOB and like to have the best of the best stuff on my rig, but for what I needed the spacer and shocks were just fine, cheers!
