Coilysammi,
You should definitely sell the pickup. The 80 series are so nice. I bought mine coming from a sweet Sami hardtop with spools and an exo cage. It was the best thing I ever did. I have put 12k miles on mine with only a belt change and two oil changes. 80 s are by far the best truck ever built bar none.
That's the kind of feedback I like to hear! I think I may just have to start looking for one. There have been quite a few online lately that appear to be in decent shape and have the factory lockers but most have north of 250k miles already. I think I might hold out and find one with under 200k. I've been looking at some of the suspension systems available and it doesn't seem like you get a whole lot for the money. Do most of you guys buy whole kits or piece together springs and shocks and stuff seperately?
