Where should I go for suspension?!

Im in the market now for suspension on my 83. My main focus is flex. nothing really crazy but id like something i can run down the trails. Last i checked, marlin is out of the suspension business. So they direct to all pro. All pro a good outlet? should I go with a total suspension package? Would it be cheaper to part it all together to avoid any mark up? all questions id love answers to haha.

any input really appreciated.

ALSO. its only got 33's on it right now. Max ill ever throw under it would be 37's. and im open for fender trimming..

if you can weld i would go with the chevy 63 swap and RUF i have that on my 4runner and it rides smooth and has pretty good flex.

i do rub a little with 35 12.50s but not to bad.
