My K20 has Skyjacker 2.5" front springs that I installed several years ago. No steering components needed changing, and the brake lines were plenty long enough. All you need to change is the front shocks b/c stock ones are too short. I took all the compression / extension measurements -- stock rear shocks are a perfect fit on the front with 2.5" springs.
