Ha ha, not only has dad informed him of the junkyard opportunities, he now spends more time on the forum than I do. He should be ready to rock in no time! I think we've created a monster!

And it never ends! lol My only real advice to somone starting there addiction is to wheel is how it is, find out what you want to do with it and what you want out of it. set a budget, research the best ways to fit your needs and budget, and do it once. if you can't do it right wait till you can. I've seen lots of people get mad at the "sport" because they keep braking but didn't take the time to resurch and do it right the first time. But either way Enjoy everystep of the way!

i've got an older set of tomken progressive coils i think they were 3.5" if i remember right. i ran them with stock upper and lower control arms on 32's (uncut) with no problems. you can have them if you want, they arn't pretty but they'll get you up a bit until you can peice you together a better lift. for the rear i ran an S-10 add a leaf and it sat level.

let me know if you want them and they are yours.
