DIY's? I was looking through LS1tech and FBO and found nothing in regards of suspension DIY's.... I am looking for a walkthrough/DIY to rebuild my front end suspension... I plan on removing everything so it can get a good cleaning and painting then replacing bushings, shocks, springs, tie rods and maybe more if money permits....
Anyone know where i can find the info?

try the stickies at the top of the page? search is your friend too... maybe try for a k member install and that may lead into how to take the a arms out, etc. trust me its all here on ls1tech. or just go buy a Haynes manual for your car. they are the BIBLE for our cars, found at auto stores or amazon...
HORRIBLE! nothing but bad experience with Haynes. not trying to be rude, but Im sure Im not the only one with such a bad review... 
Here's a writeup that I did for the front springs and shocks:
It's on a LT1 4th gen, but it's all the same 93-02

www.ls1howto.com
www.installuniversity.com
Those both have a few basic things. Probably not as deep as your looking for

I have no problems with the Haynes manual....just have to read ahead and realize that there may be better ways/better explanations of doing things. Definitely a good reference book for torque specs, pictures, and ways to get started on projects and worth the $12-15 it costs to get.
As far as springs/shocks, TheBlueKnight has a how-to video for that, a search for him will bring that up (it's in the signature of his posts too AFAIK). Also, the ls1howto and installuniversity are very useful.
