Guillermo - nice truck! And wow that bridge is crazy.

I really don't have any real information on which suspension to pick. Those brands are all well known brands, but in terms of the coilovers and shocks, I really don't know. I'm sure you'll get lots of opinions though. Welcome to Yotatech, and post more pictures please.
