That kit will work for what you wanna do...but its really a bit overpriced. You can buy just the rear lift shackles here or here for ~$60. Then you can get close to 2' of lift with your stock torsion keys. If you can't, then you've got worn parts and the kit won't help anyway.

You need 2' of lift to clear 31x10.50s on stock rims...if you put the new rims on, you might still have rubbing issues when you turn, even with 2'. I rub with 1.5' shackles/tbar AND a 2' body lift, just because of the rims. Use the search button and you can read allllll about the torsion bar lift and the pros/cons. DEFINITELY read some other threads before buying.

As for my brush guard, it's a Hunter brand guard, so it mounts to the lower bumper mounts right off the frame. Very strong mounting point...I stand on the front pretty regularly :D

No I'm sure the kit will work, but I just don't think that paying $120 and then doing all the extra work to change the torsion bar keys is worth it for an extra .xx inches over what you can do right now kit-less (just need shackles).
