I even did a cost analysis to help make up my mind I decided on the PB Level 1 Dropmember.

Basically what it boils down is what you are wanting to accomplish and how much you are willing to spend. I'm going for an old truck with modern suspension. It all started with wanting R&P and new control arms, which led to spending a little more for the DM, etc. Now its better brakes and shocks. Had I replaced my steering box I could be close to driving my truck by now
..Thanks Ryan, I'm going for the same..I'm wanting to leave outside in it's patina for awhile and want to do the same as your thinking..I'm gonna look into your build and steal some of your ideas metal:
