suspension choices?

[rapieper@yahoo.com (Cheapass Ron Pieper)]

wellllll...here I am, looking at the Ground Control coilover kit that
just came today (woooohoooo).  $400 from Potterman.  I'll use my
Bilstein HD's for now, until I can hide enough to get Sports or Koni
Yallers. 

To minimize downtime, it's best to have some spare front strut housings
so's you can grind off the perches and weld on the new "perchettes"
that locate the threaded sleeves.  And of course, access to a MIG
welder.  And a sandblaster if you're anal.

How does it look?  Great...in the box...
