I don't need or want 7" of suspension travel, I can make a 3" travel coilover suspension handle like a slot car...... I guess they are both nice, if that's what you want....

I am looking at the kit you have also ,just want to see which will give me the best bang for my buck.I also do need to box the frame,but IMO it will me minimal boxing for less weight.

Be sure you put some decent brakes on your truck . . . not the Mustang II brakes!! Those tiny rotors weren't much good on that little Mustang II. And a good anti-sway bar is a must!! The full sized coil springs with separate shocks will ride better than the coil-over version some companies offer. There are several different spring rates available for this suspension, so you might want to try a different spring rate if you're not thrilled with the ride and handling of your new front end.
