Hi all. I am lifting my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 2WD. (current picture below)

After a little reading on these forums, I am buying the BDS 5" Long Arm lift kit.
My local mechanic says he can take care of lifting it for me, no problem. I still want to check with the pros here on the forums and get your advise on anything I should do besides just buying the lift kit and having it installed?
I have read things such as: leveling kits, new axles, bigger tires, etc. I have an average budget (about $5k) and it looks like the kit + install will cost me around $2500. This means I have around $2500 left to spend on other upgrades.
Any thougsts, advice, tips will be greatly appreciated.
