        Someone on here said they got a pinto rack for 50-75 bucks. I'd go that route.

              I miss my 4 door, I was offered twice what I had in it, and like a dumb ass took the deal.
              I wish I still had it.
              Good luck man, I'm totally living vicariously through you so do it right!

                  Struts came in.

                  I forgot to order new strut bump stops. But ordered them with my manual rack and shaft today.

                  Im not a big fan of aje's coilover design. Id go with stranges kit if i did another.

                    I got the aje k, flaming river rack and strange coil covers on my mont its a good setup
                    Too bad my mont isn't 1/4 as clean as yours. Good luck with the build I'll be following

                      Just figured out i need 87-93 v8 spindles as well. The old 4 bangers are thicker.

                      I wanted to upgrade anyway, but just dont have the cash right now. If i would have got any other strut besides the strange id be fine haha.

                          The 87 and up spindles are thinner where the strut bolts up vs the thicker 4cly and older spindles.

                          Thats why the strange struts say v8 only. Every other shock company gives you spacers.

                            Do you have your 5.3 yet? I've got mine, trying to get an oil pan for it today. I think I'm gonna go with a CTS-V pan off ebay. I'm trying to find a gasket set for it too seems mine is a high milage motor

                              Ill prob go with the f body pan. Im waiting on the engine until i have the suspension done.

                              After i get these things installed the project will sit most of the year while i gather more parts.

                              Im just a poor man trying to build something decent.

                              What rear is in yours? Drun 8.8 or disc?

                                Drum 8.8.

                                I got this CTS-V pan, comes with pan, dipstick, windage tray and pickup tube. My pickup tube is completely clogged up with sludge.
