your throttle cable is out of place.

After it exits the firewall it normally makes a clockwise loop over the top of the manifold and passed though that clip on the top of the manifold along side the cruise cable.

OK to start your pathy looks very clean guessing it was a southern car.

 

You have the 3" bl so great start.

 

For the uca's i would go with the superlift or rough country arms (there the exact arm minus the superlift gives them a zinc coating my rough country arm even have superlift stamped on them lol.

 

You will have to call rough country in order to get the arms only they charged me $170 for the arms shipped to my door in 2 days.

Ok for shocks i have bilsteins all around and i couldn't be happier i've had skyjacker nitro, Superlift , Rough country and rancho 5k shocks and there by far were the best money ever spent.

 

Next you cant go wrong with a idler arm bracer some people prefer other braces but they all work the same and are around the same price.

 

And last getting Jeep grand cherokee springs are the right idea make sure there the front ones and there from a v-8 93-98 model year.

 

Now another way to go with springs is to get the front springs from a regular jeep cherokee that are for a 3" lift they will give you the same lift you want but are of a lower spring rate for better ride quality and are longer. In my area there are tons of jeeps so searching the local boards or craiglist can get you used 3" lift springs for cheap.

it seems to run just fine, maybe its just like this because of the 3" BL?? idk...lol

Throttle cable should be like this by the way:

wd21overland has offered all the best advice! Clean looking truck, honestly, next thing I would do is find a spare Lego wheel to have a full size spare. If you ever get a flat in the rear, it's best to swap a tire from the front, and run the spare on the front. Lots of these trucks have limited slips, and mismatching the rear tire sizes is a sure way to kill it.
