Took her to Schwabs the other day to have them replace the tie rod ends and drag link ends. They said that they had recently been replaced and there is no need to change them right now. I was a little surprised to hear this cause when driving down the road it still wanders a little.
So I was expecting to spend about 500 or so on the suspension but now am planning on getting it to the exhaust shop next week. I will have to do some checking on some quotes to get the best price.
The plan for exhaust right now is duals out before the rear tires with an x-pipe and flowmasters or magnaflows. I had flowmasters before on my 97 and liked them, might go the magnaflow route to get a different sound, but you cant complain about flowmasters (im sure there area few that can).
There is an orange chevy for sale just down the road for just under 10k. Its a nice pickup and something that I can see mine looking like in 5 years. Here is the link for it.
