well its a good thing its a 2ng gen-it has a 8.5 rear which can take punishment-but a c-clip elimination kit would be a good idea. Subframe connectors will help with body twist. a good front suspeskion will consist of good bushings/ball joints. OEM will be fine. and a set of good traction bars. Now you really dont want to get cheap here. You can also get different leaf spring rates from dirt track stuff. A poor mans four link will work were you basically use spring clamps on all the leafs and the use of traction bars with the J-bolt option.
