Thanks for the info mich...

dagrease22 - I think I'm going to get this on order. I'd like to see the before and after photos.. If it would ever stop raining here - I would like to get some pics of mine.

Any tricks or recommendations you have would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks again!

well the weather has been crap here to!! I hope to get time next week to get this done i have been looking into all the items needed! I may order coil spring insulators its like a rubber seat for the bottom of the spring to rest on my stock ones might be bad not sure but don't want to get it ripped apart and then see i need theme i thought they would had come with the struts but i was wrong and bump stops don't comewith THe AGX's either i think that is some bogus sh*t! i would bet my stock one's are fine but then again i think i might as well get theme to be safe a bump stomp just prevents the shock from bottoming out its like a hard piece of ruber!!
