These guys had one for $650.00. There in AL. I'll ask around and see if I can find one around here.

I was thinking the same thing, isn't that a pretty good deal for a turbo tranny?

Thanks....

Progress: 4/20/06

I got my RE's yesterday, Bad news is that they were not the one's I needed. :cry: So I sent them back and the guy gave me my $$$ back...very cool.

I built(started fabbing) up the tower for my upper 3-link(sorry no pics tonight, try to get them up tomorrow) I am hoping to finish it up tomorrow. Also, I am in hopes of coming into some $$$ soon, which means MORE PARTS I am going to order all my ends(Currie or RE? opinions...) Heading to the 'yard tomorrow also(gonna go and get some Aerostar coils and whatever else I can find that I like)

Does anyone else on here have a Hypertherm Plasma Cutter? I want to rant about mine for a minute...I went to Sunox(our local welding/cutting equipment outfit) to get some new consumables(for those who don't know-the parts inside the plasma cutters gun that wear out). When I left there I had 4 SMALL packages in my hand(12 pieces total) It cost me $107! Thats insane!

Inventory(pics soon, I promise)
11-Currie Johnny Joints 2-5/8" mounting width 1-1/4x12 forged stud
11-1-1/4x12 nuts
2-axle link mounts
2-upper link mounts
2-lower frame link mounts
2-bushings for upper 3-link wishbone
1-outrageous bill :pat:

I also brought the truck cab/frame up into the shop and started the cleaning of the frame so I can mount my brackets. I have been toying with the idea of running a 3.4L and coils up front as opposed to air shox and a 2.7, whatcha think?

I hear that leaves are 999999x easier than coils. Just an idea to throw around. The 3.4 sounds like a very good idea though. Some people get lots of power out of em.
