haha no schwabs prolly would have been like 2k lol i went to the place that discount recommended for alignments, which is nelsons over on francis, they were just gonna do an alignment but found that, but sicnce then i went out and looked at all the ball joints and honestly they all look fine. so idk, found a complete set lower ball joints, upper controls arms and new tie rod ends for $135 and i could just install them myself.

isn't nelson's the wrecking company? if you want it done, try the american tire depot (yeah, i know, all the way back up here on the north side) but give 'em a call, they will give u a fair price. i know the owner in a roundabout way. but i would trust their opinion, they aint out to rip people off. but neither is discount, nelsons....wouldn't go that far.....lol

yeah, i would atleast consider it. they are good people down there, i had my oil changed there once (was about to go to seattle and didn't have time to do it myself) and they looked everything over for no extra cost and all they mentioned was my diff cover was leaking a little, but nothing bad. didn't even suggest i have it fixed, said if i wanted to i could but its fine as is. (which is another reason i planned on looking into m difffs and redoing the seals and fluid change)

I think either would look good. Personally im a fan of round lights, and dual light set ups. So i would go for the 2 light bars instead of one big one.

I think round lights look better on 3rd gens. Unless your gonna be like Reece and get 64" of pure light haha. :shooter: I will have pics of my light bar with 4 6.5" kc's on soon so I'll shoot you some pics of it for reference.

consider having the shop do the keys unless u got all the tools. (i have most of 'em just FYI) they can be a royal PITA, and this random snow we got today makes working outside kinda sucky. lol

also, on your truck, i'm assuming none of your shocks are wrapped in a spring? if so might need to buy some spring compressors, i don't have those, but they are on my list...lol
