    What’s my options as far as upper control arms? Running a spacer lift and yes I know my trucks going to explode because of that. Would prefer ball joint style control arms. I don’t off road but would like to upgrade. Coil overs would be next to replace the spacer lift. Advice on that would be great to

    That's one nice clean taco. Not sure about the 5 lug arms but just wanted to say she looks good.

    :cheers:

    Thanks man. Just wanting to upgrade the stock front suspension without going long travel. Truck only has 48k on it so it’s in great shape.

    Since Christmas. It was left to me by my grandpaw. He murdered my grandmaw then killed him self. According to the car fax he got it with 20k on it. Never had a 2wd truck but I’ve come to like this one pretty good. All I’ve ever had were diesels but I like this truck pretty good. I got it all stock

    Thanks that means a lot. He mistakingly mixed his medicine wrong and he went off the wall. He killed her while she was sleeping thank the good lord she never knew it was coming. It’s been extremely hard for my family. For the first two months I didn’t even drive the truck it just didn’t feel right. I sold my 96 so I could make this into something cool. Miss them daily. That phone call is one I won’t ever forget

    Unfortunately the only way to find a set will be from someone getting rid of theirs.
