you should use everything but 1 and 4, but you might have to cut the bump stops in 1/2 if you plan on dropping it.

if you don't want to use your factory parts, then i'd say just try and find someone with blown shocks/springs on the boards and use parts from them. it will be a lot cheaper than going out and buying all new.
