This inexpensive upgrade will add extra life to the factory inner CV boots

Well aware of the name change.
Maybe it was just the old coilovers and the rear shocks that are manufactured by Edelbrock. Point I was trying to make is that they are very high quality shocks, with more technical support and industry backing than might be apparent from a small company that recently went through some upheaval. The owners are well established in the industry, and so are the parts...and the point was similar with Camburg using SAW coilovers. Either way, you're getting a product with a long history and good reputation, tuned by some of the best people in the business.
Sorry but I gotta completely disagree on the recommendation for the Total Chaos arms. OP has a 1st-gen Tundra, I used to run those same arms, and while the arms themselves are very high quality pieces, the misalignment angle on the uniball adapter they use will bind at hard full compression with low-profile bump stops, and binds sooner on droop than the Camburg adapter, meaning shorter shocks or limit straps to protect the spindle. The Camburg joint angles farther in the same uniball, so there's no need to be concerned about the spindle at either extreme. I sold the old arms to a buddy, but only on the condition he buy the Camburg adapter to run with them. Also there's no need for a 4130 arm...DOM 1018/1020/etc is fine, and it's less expensive.
Long travel arms are physically longer, joint to pivot, than stock arms...so are the shocks, since the motion ratio is closer to 1:1 with the long arms. If you are thinking about getting a long travel kit in the future, don't buy anything now as you'll replace your entire setup later. If that's not the case, you can get the Camburg arms now & install them, and get coilovers later. You'll probably want 650# (if you're usually running an empty truck) or 700# (if the truck is usually loaded) coils on a 2.5" body. I recommend you call Camburg and talk to them.
Icon coilovers will work just fine with Camburg arms, too, depending on whether you like red or black
