If you don't plan on adjusting the height...get springs...either Eibach or Tein. If you want adjustability...go with ground control. And if you wanna go all out with a complete coil dampener...then get either Teins or JIC.

Springs...$150
Coil Over...$280
Coil Dampener...$740+

You should go do a search also. You'll get more info then whats posted here

My spring compressor sucks ***. It took me two hours to just compress the first spring cause the damn thing kept sliding around and popping off of the spring. Buy quality tools.

Damn straight...thats the way to do it on a budget. My friend is too cheap to buy a spring compressor so everytime we do shocks...shoot it into the tires.

I found mine for $260 shipped on http://www.groupbuycenter.com about 8 months ago...might be able to get them for that same price. And yeah...I love my GC's. Even though my shocks are blown...it was no where near as bouncy as my friend's integ with Skunk2's and Illuminas.
