The kit wasnt that expensive. I got it off ebay BRAND NEW for $695 total. Shipping was a bit pricey ($145) cause it ships by freight in one big box. I also bought some fenders too

this is what the kit looks like.

In a perfect world we would all have multiple expeditions.
1 jacked up, 1 lowered, 1 for racing, and 1 kept stock for the wife.

I know what you mean, since I sold the Camaro I have been going through power withdrawels. My wife won't let me put a supercharger on "her" Expedition. Maybe one of the days she will take my balls out of her purse and let me have them back

Not much to post up car is broke and in pieces in the garage. Maybe one day it will run again but if not, i will have a 5th gen zeta platform in hugger orange "nesting" in my garage.

I haven't decided what color I am going to get my 5th Gen in. I like the Hugger Orange, but the silver looks good to. My birthday is November 29th, I figure that will probably be about the time the Camaros come out. Happy Birthday to me To bad that they are not going to make the Firebird.

I guess i havent updated this thread with pics of the kit primered.. I'll try to do so this weekend but as faras getting it installed not sure when that will happen but i will have to look at some shops for price quotes and quality paint.

If GM is even remotely smart they will price the new T/A's within the same price range as the competion since the late 60's (mustang) I find it amazing that ford outbeats GM everytime year after year in sales just cause the car might "look" better

If people would shop in terms of more bang for the buck then Chevy would win hands down but they overprice everything and it kills them. Perfect example GTO... Yeah it comes with an LS2 rated @ 330+ but people would rather pay cheaper and build up from there but with stangs generally it costs alot more to build up the motor then it would an LSX engine.
