Ok i got all my stuff installed. When i got down there to start working on it we were going to install the trany first but after we opened the box that the trany came in we discovered that there was not drive shaft so i called and complaind but that did not do anything. so we waited until sunday. So sat. morning we started on the suspension. i am glad that i was changing all the bushing because these were worn out. We got started on the front which took us all day. getting the bushing out ended up being a challange but we got it out. On sunday morning we got to work on the rear end and that went along alot easier so my dad started to pull the trans. After i got done with the rear end i started to help my dad on the trans. He already had the trans out so we strated work on getting the new one installed. ( witch is heavy by the way 240 lbs). so we got the trans stabed in and then came the fun part. i had to cut out the old trans mounts to make new ones for the new trans cross member. but i got it all done and it drives really good. but with out futher ado here is the pics.

here is the stock height
