Wow, thanks for the update!
I'm all about saving money where it can be saved but in bringing some new life back to the 4R I just got donated to me from my brother, the one place I was not willing to take a chance on was the LBJ's (especially after reading how they can just break on these 3rd gens with no warning).
If you buy some cheap struts or sway bar end links and they fail, oh well... If that LBJ breaks, it could be a death sentence. I bought all OEM toyota LBJ's and am totally glad I did. In fact, other than the entirely new exhaust, it was the most money I spent on a single repair so far.
