Sounds good. Which shock kit is that again?

I would pay $50 if you can get the whole deal, especially the end links
and brackets. If you want a stiffer bar later, you can get a 3/4" bar to
fit the original end links. If you know already that you want a big bar,
you could get the ADDCO bar from JC Whitney, you wouldn't need the
stock end links, only the plates that bolt onto the A-arms. This bar is
adjustable via different stiffness bushings.
If you aren't into the performance stuff, get the stock bar, it makes
enough of an improvement and you could stiffen it somewhat with hard
center bushings (if they make them for the thin bar).
Have fun,
