With all due respect, I think what you, and others, are missing is that I'm not trying for a maxed out, tuned to the nth degree, auto x or drag race front suspension. Where all of you get this idea that everything has to be the best handling, or lightest weight, top of the line suspension, or it isn't worth it, is beyond me. I was merely thinking about options for a suspension that handles as well as stock, gave better room for headers, parts are readily available, updated to R&P steering, and was reasonably affordable. Those are things that would make it worth it to me, and that is all that matters.
If I ever were to go down this path, I promise, I will document the whole process and report my results whether good or bad.
