To help you out a little....The suspension swap is not to hard....just make sure you have the new struts and springs assembled and ready for install before you attempt swapping....I do have a couple of questions tho....

1. Are you looking for a sportier lower ride height or OEM stuff

2. Are you mechanically inclined....if not suspension is somewhere you really dont want to be a "half-***'d" mechanic....

3. Please dont go cheap on your suspension components....the old saying "you get what you pay for" holds very true in this essential part of your car.

4. It's always good to have a chilton's on standby....lol....seriously I've actually studied my chiltons....when I'm at work and I dont have **** to do....I'll think of something that needs to be done....then I'll work it out in my head while I read.

Chiltons + Mitchell FTW

thanks for the response--to answers your questions

1. Not looking to lower the car it will remain stock with stock parts

2. Yes, I have worked on cars a long time and have done a frame up rebuild on a 79 cj5

3. At this point in time I don't have a book or I would do the same thing you do at work.

4. just looking for some advice or a link with pics before I get into this

thanks
