Default Rings and Bearings?

Well as long as my truck has been down, I don't see why I should't go ahead and install new bearings and rings on the 6.0! I was already removing the heads to have some work done to them, so what the hell, right!

What rings and bearings should I buy?
Brand?
Part#'s?

Anything and any advice would help.
Thanks

you're definately going to want to to have the block honed before you re-ring it. Hot tanking and honing isn't very expensive.

Just put it together cause once you start buying parts it doesn't stop until the money runs out.
