Suspension Questions.

This is not another "Which 3" lift should I get" thread. I already have 885 coils and 2" blocks in the rear. I have a couple more specific questions: Where is the best source for Deaver springs? The best I have found is $585, and that's more than I thought they were. Also, where is the cheapest place to get Donahoe rear resivoir shocks? Are all the distributors the same price? Everywhere I look, they are $236 each! If there is no cheaper alternative, are the Procomp resivoirs comparable? They are MUCH cheaper. So, any help with these questions guys?

Okay, here's some other options: Instead of Brock's billet control arms, coilovers and buying some deavers and Hoes, what about: OME front shocks, Allied Spindles, TC UCAs, Deavers, and OME rears? To get the lift I want, I have to crank up the coilovers, which makes it ride stiff. With the spindles, I can make it ride softer. Also, with stock springs, would it be better to go with OMEs, or Bilstiens. In addition, what about rears, OME or Bilstien 5125s? I know its alot, I'm just trying to figure out the best way to spend money, to get the most out of what I have.

If your gonna spend all that money then you might as well get some nice shocks and get the Camburg arms cheaper.

I have like $3K. PB, I heard the Dakars rode a lot firmer. I just want everything to be pretty well matched front to rear. Like, I've always hated when guys have fully built frontends with lift blocks in the rear. Does thqat make sense?

Well if you plan to go LT in the future just keep saving, because me and like four other people and gone the Donahoe route and as soon as you get out to the dezert they wont perform how you want them to. But if you must lift it now you can go with Donahoes front and rear with TC Camburg arms and Deavers for under 3k installed.
