Hey all, About to start the long task of remodeling my 99 EB. And i know theres no greater wealth of info than this new forum. Thanks in advance for all your help.

Pics coming soon (once my wife remembers where she put the camera!)

Welcome! You restoring back to stock or going aftermarket?

Aftermarket. Got the truck a while ago and it sat for 2 years until i finally got around to putting a little $ into it. Going to be hitting the SPL shows next year so im going to start at the ground and build up. No sense in spending what im planning on spending on audio equipment. And not having a solid vehicle to put it in.

Do all suspension bushings, that would make a world of difference!

yea i just ordered upper control arms, lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends and adjuster tubes, pitman, idler, Hellwig swaybar, and plenty of other odds and ends(bolts, bushings etc) . probably gonna order hubs next week once i get a lil more cash to spend on my new project

Truck had slight damage to the front when i got it so if i have to change out one thing i figure i might as well do it all.

Am I the only complete noob on this site? lower ball joints? Adjuster tubes? Hellwig Swaybar? WTF? Welcome to the site and thanks for making me feel small

Welcome. I take it your remodel is gonna be more 'street' than off road judging from some of your recent mods. (Sway Bar, etc). It will be nice to see your progress.

pay it forward...

Thanks for all the welcomes.

Yea my build is gonna be more street. Dont really get a chance to do a lot of off roading here in Chicago. Unless you count the thousands of huge potholes and crappy roads we have. I'll will of course take pics/video and post them when i have a chance to. Gonna start inital tear down in a week or two.
