Next week I'm buying a 2/4 drop kit from tony. With end links, helper bags, bump stops. And I'm going to buy the r1 concepts front and rear rotors and ss lines.
I'm wondering while I'm doing all this should I do anything while im in there??? I.e. wheel bearing or something along those lines??..??..

If you're wheel bearings are original you might as well hit those, too, while you're there. My favorite brand is Timken and the cheapest I've found them is on rockauto.com. Be sure and use the TYF code given by Rock Auto in their Vendor section and save 5% Everything else should be good if your ride is good. I always do a good thorough visual check while everything is off, though.

Is the bearings the whole hubs assembly as well?? And what about in rear??

Yes, the whole hub assembly for the front. The rear requires more than just your basic tools so you may want to leave that to a professional and therefore wait until it actually starts giving you problems. The rear bearing looks like this

The front assembly looks like

Ok thanks man, ill buy the front assembly's next week when I order everything else.
Next oil change Gunna have dealer flush coolant, and change front and rear fluids and transfer case, than I'm hoping it will be good to go for another 70k miles with everything.
