Would definitely recommend doing your own suspension work. There's good youtube videos on it. Usually when you start modifying a vehicle, or maintaining an older one, there's going to be a lot of unplanned tweaking, adjusting, fine tuning, replacing other parts you didn't know needed replacing, etc. If you have to take it into a shop every time something is needed it, the total cost will add up & will seem like it's not worth keeping anymore. It's a labor of love but the benefit is you get to learn the platform.

As far as welding, that may be something worth finding a qualified person to do if you don't have any experience with it.
