OMG, if you haven't done this swap, DO IT. First off the springs. The ride is soooo much better with these. It doesn't sag in the back nearly as much and it feels like a Cadillac going over bumps, large and small.

The brakes freaking ROCK. We didn't even swap out the pads from the ones that came from the junkyard. The rotors look good, but they were rusty, so we left the old pads in to scrub, and they did that and more. We tested around on surface streets, then out on the highway on exit ramps. Night and day difference.

If you have a Gen 1, get the springs, however you can. If you can get the axle, do it, as you'd get the stronger trailing arms (as stated before, I think this one was already upgraded), the springs, the locker and man-o-man, the brakes. Great mod, and thanks for the help and advice, everybody. World of difference.
