With +3 shocks, I'd certainly also do longer brake lines. (which I did.)

+2!

No pun intended... but yeah I also got the SS +2" brake lines when I went to the 3" shocks.

HD Terrafirma, I believe there's a way to get 3" lift with D1 OME springs, but then you have to go elsewhere for the 3" shocks.

I know, and I don't know the specifics(talk to DiscoMike), but people used D1 springs on their DII to get the 3" lift.

I don't believe they do, I had 265/75 and moved up to 255/85. But 265 to 275 is a 10mm difference, hardly something you'll notice. I would go with the 265 because I like a skinnier tire...and girl...
