For those interested in going down instead of up with their trucks (why are you here?), courtesy of Bill White, a few more reccomendations - especially for Gen II trucks:

I take back anything bad I've said about Sporttruckdirect in the past. I called them to get tracking numbers on my stuff. Belltech shocks and Western Chassis drop spindles and shackles/hangers. Apparently, there was a problem with my order.
Belltech had the shocks, and has to drop ship them. Western Chassis has the shackles/hangers but the drop spindles are on backorder for at least two more weeks. Great, right? Sporttruckdirect is giving me Belltech spindles at no extra charge - and they have them in stock. I chalk that up as pretty good customer service.

In response to another lista's complaints about the lack of Gen II aftermarket parts, he also provided this useful bit of a list:

Trenz makes billet grill inserts.
Razzi and Prestigous have ground effects.
Belltech and Western Chassis have lowering parts.
There's a lot of performance stuff as well. I'd recommend KRC anyway for Magnum trucks, but particularly Gen II's.
