How did I miss this thread? I had a 4 link kit from JD fab. It was like 150 at the time. I think it’s up to 500 or so now. Just need to buy the coil overs after that.
I have less than 500 bucks into my kit as I found the coilovers on CL.
Only thing I can say for sure is don’t run the bottom coilover bolt single shear. I did and it ended up badly.
I heard about the bolts breaking and thought... oh it won’t happen to me. Well it did at 3am on my way to work.
granted my bump stops are a little farther than the axle than they should be for these tires. It doesn’t change the fact that I drug my coilover to the nearest exit.

What coilovers did you end up getting? I am at that point on my build. I installed a 4-link and am moving the gas tank to the rear. All I can come up with from the internet so far is 12" with 5" travel and 230lb coils. Mine is factory ride height. 78GMC C15
