I have to admit that I have the rc lift on my runner...for a street pounder 99% of the time the last 20 years I just couldn't justify spending more than 250 on the set up...I had the original shock break off after 18 years so replaced it all..I've cut up oak trees and loaded them in the back with no problem...I like the back springs and shocks...they work good and have held up great...I don't like the front at all but have lived with it...rides like a tank...there is 0 down travel with the wheel...it is maxed out...so that sucks...If if had to do it all over I'd go with the springs and shocks up front that are suggested on this thread...I really don't know about rear as I like what I have.

Bought this 99 in 01 and haven't let it go since! Valve dropped at 195k so I rebuilt it with reman heads, new rings and one new piston...tough to find the correct numbered one but I did...still had the original hatch...I soaped it and did a light hatch to help the new rings seat...that was in 2015...since then I did a basic lift and put some VTX 18x9 inch wheels with 0 offset...Ive grounded the rear locker, ran a diff extension into the gas cap, did the hood piston mod...GM Alternator...13WL brakes..30 year ASE Master Tech with more tools than sense, so I quit everything and work at home now.
