    Yea fox is a great choice, ultimately it's all up to you and the research you do. Maybe do some research on those camburgs, TC upper control arms are great & I have the J59 leaf pack. It's been great. Just sayn' you could get some great stuff for really cheap, & if you don't want it, den flipppppp ittttttt

    Some decent used shocks are way better at off-roading then blown out stock shocks. I think there might be a reason why your going airborne when doing donuts. New/used deavers sound sweet with some new/used coilovers up front. You can always sell them down the road when you can finally afford what your after and you won't be out anything in the long run.

    I'm thinking he could buy it, run it for a year, and resale for the same price he bought it for. Not making money but not losing money.

    Ehh fug it, I'll lowball him for the whole shabang. It is craigslist after all :kona:
    Camburgs are definately sweet, plus they're located like 10 minutes away which is great. I've done some research but I still have plenty more to do before I decid on anything. Flip ittttt :D
    What's wrong with going airborne :spy:. Ironically though I have some used toytecs for the front sitting in my garage

    :cool:You think I should try for a deal on the coilovers, axle & Ucas? :confused:
    The only angel on my shoulder while everyone else is telling me to buy buy buy :fistbump::rofl:
    Good deal at current price, or if I could lowball my way to $1k :confused:.
    Anytime during the day, could start in the AM so you're back in time for your class if that's your concern. Time is completely open to decisions.
    Oh god temptation, Merry Christmas to me :rofl:.

    Just a little info you should be asking nick. Find out the mileage info on them. Also one of the bushings on the uca looks black in color. Should be red like the others. I would also ask if the coilovers are the 2.0's or the 2.5's? Big difference in price. I believe those are the 2.5's though. Also ask what springs and there rates on the coilovers?

    Yep. Just a matter of making my mind & installing them on the truck quick before the parentals find out that I'm buying more truck stuff. They still don't know how much I paid for the bestop haha.....
    Oh also finding a place to do this all since the HOA won't let me do it on the flat street :anonymous:

    When low balling you should initially cut him in half or to about 60% of asking price. Don't feel guilt or shame. Free market and at its finest, and you would be surprised how often you can get a killer deal.

    Installing is easy and I'm sure someone will give you some advice etc. keep in mind new rear shocks will also have to be bought with those deavers (not trying to rain on anyways parade)

    My guess. If those are the 2.5's and the uca's are in good shape along with the coilovers and nick does not totally destroy them, he could make a few bucks for his troubles on top when he sells as well. The uca's are 750$ new and the coilovers are around $1200 I believe for the 2.5's if that's what they are.

    Oh grasshopper, that's why I have a contingency plan. My real phone number is a 909 and my Text Free app number is a 323 or some LA area code.

    There's no connection to be made.

    While we're spending your money, grab those bigger tires while you're at it. Scoop some dirty-fives and call it a Christmas.
