okay smart ***...you didn't explain it very well at first. and those prices you had before you talked to AI are RIDICULOUSLY high...i don't know where you were looking for parts but i suggest you find a new source for that stuff. try speedinc, ws6store.com, herron performance, byunspeed...those places should have cheaper parts than the prices you listed for most of that stuff. and speedinc usually has sales on suspension parts

ummm........a question here. Are all of those places you rattled off, and others, by any chance located in a stickied post on this site? I like saving money too.
