Thanks Steve, yea it's a fun car, I dont ever plan to let it leave the family. Even if I have to sell my 86 to keep it, it wouldnt even be a second thought.

Where Id start, you have the springs which is great. Id do full length subframes, weld the torque boxes at the same time, an under hood strut brace (which I have a bad ass one I will sell cheap since it doesnt work with the Griggs), a g-load brace which braces the stock k member and keeps it in place during hard turns, bump steet kit, and upper and lower control arms for the back. At that point you should have a pretty damn good handling car... not torque arm + watts link good; but pretty nice and fun to toss around... All those parts should be less than a grand, esp if you buy my strut brace for half price.

Dont forget some better tires too...

will hit you up soon for the strut brace. what make is it?

I'm not sure, it was the best one on market when we did the above mods. John Griggs took it off and handed it to us and said don't use this with my suspension. Lmao. So, it's been chillen in storage. The old subframes we had were Global West, so it could be a Global West unit if they make one...

Can't find one for Global West, its defintely not the MM one, the one I have is WAY beefier than that flimsy pos one MM sells. The MM one doesn't even tie in the firewall, just attaches to it. Lmao.

If you'd like a picture, I should be able to get you one next time I go to storage in a few days.
