    Buy the complete kit, I bought a scaled down version and ended up buying the other parts piece-meal and paid a bunch more in the long run. The (heavy) work is not bad at all, it took me 15 hours to remove all the factory stuff (by drilling the spot welds, no less!) and installing the new crossmember and suspension. On a "do-over", I'd break out the plasma rig and save about 8 of those hours and $50 worth of bits. IIRC, it took longer than that to do the shock tower covers and steering column mods.
