    We installed the full Jamco kit, disk brakes, power booster, swaybars, springs, shocks, leafsprings, rad fan/shroud/overflow bottle, booster reservoir, brake lines, cleaned and painted the ch***is,
    The owner Billie Joe of the band Greenday is going to enjoy driving it now

    The Jamco kit was a direct bolt in, it still required some fine tuning, in the end it works great once it was dialed in

    The kit took about 2-3 weeks to get, came with the wrong rear shocks and was missing the grease fittings, after more than several phone calls and about 5 weeks jamco sent the correct rear shocks and the grease fittings, but not enough grease fittings so I had to order them elsewhere. All in all the kit is great however the time frame in which they fulfilled the remaining components was ridiculous
