I'm going to have to take some measurements of the stock suspension and see what can be done to possibly improve on them (maybe raise the upper control arm mount, use a different spindle, get corvette suspension, or just make my own control arms.

Also, I'm going to use rear disks brakes (probably a factory type setup) I'll also upgrade to larger front disks.

I haven't really looked into it a lot, but I may also run a hydroboost setup on the MC.

The actual goal of the truck is to outperform a Ford Lightning in all catagories (acceleration, handling, fuel economy, etc.). I know those trucks are fairly quick from the factory, but for a factory truck, they handle very well too.

I'm on all the Pro-Touring sites as well.... don't exclude air-ride as a choice for your suspension. They will allow much more flexibility while attempting to acheive your goals. Check out those threads on PT.com about the road course challange & see how ART's rides compared vs. static suspended vehicles.
