ha. I hear the budget crisis! Invest in some lower A-arms for sure! Especially if you get larger bags up front. Aim industries has cheap a-arms, 600 for the pair. I know people kinda dis em, but they are budget friendly I have the older style AIM industries uppers and there is nothing wrong with them.
Stock uppers work, but the ball joints seemed to almost bind when layed out. But yeah, If I were you, do a bolt in kit in the cross member, then bolt the bottom to aftermarket lower a arms. Check out this article, Its layed out nicely in the front.....
