not uppers, but lowers are a real nice swap, i run the 3rd gen lowers on mine.

you can try DT fab for control arms, they are 1/2" longer for those with leveling kits, also you can probably call and get the arms from skyjacker, or superlift without buying the whole kit.

DT Profab. They sell stock length control arms and also make a 1/2" longer version that will go with nicely with your leveling kit and locate the axle back where it should be. $360 for 4 new control arms with polyurethane bushings. The welded control arms are definitely stouter than the stamped stock pieces.

Unfortunately, their website appears to be down right now. Some people have also reported difficulty contacting them, but it only took me one phone call to get some questions answered and place my order. I am very happy with the product.
