Have decided I definitely need airbags, and the Air Lift kit looks pretty decent. Maybe a proper on-board compressor would be worth it, to air up and down.
Do I just need to buy Old Man Emu springs? They have a rainbow of sizes and applications, I just got the feeling from the price and what I've heard that they were a cheaper and less robust part.
Talk to me about sway bars? I was hoping the Panhard correction bracket would take care of the rear end, and if I kept the front lift at 1" my OEM bar and new end links would be alright.
Using 265/75/16s at the moment. Cool it on the e-brake turns man! Turns out most potential partners actually aren't impressed by that. I checked.
Obviously there is an alignment in my future.

Have you looked into OME 906 springs with a small spacer? They're a higher coil spring rate but most people only net 1-2 inches unloaded with them without a spacer. You could easily run airbags in those springs as well for when you need the extra help.
I wouldn't worry about replacing the ball joints and sway bar bushings since you've already replaced them with OEM recently.
