Has basically all the suspension work you can do and keep it stock style. TRZ uppers and lower with all spherical ends. TRZ upper spherical bushings in the rear. Viking double adjustable rear shocks. TRZ weld in billet anti roll bar.

Money tossed in the trash for $'s on the hundreds when people sell 8.5's around $1K.
