Do what i'm doing, get parts from FBI and Suicide Doors (online). I'm 17 and i'm planning on doing the install myself, probably have a friend help me. I've changed my springs a few times so far, once on the xB and 3 times on my Echo (same suspsension). I figure the bags won't be too hard. The hardest or most "tedius" part would be effectively running the airlines I would think. The reason I don't want to go for the full EasyStreet kit is because of the comments on the rear setup. They have had a lot of problems with their "sleeve" type bags. On the other hand i haven't really heard any "real" bad things about the front air struts.

I'm going to be getting:

Front ES Air Struts = 530$ [online]
Rear FBI brackets = 100$~
2500lb SlamSpecialties Bags for the rear = 100$~
Viar 450c (maybe 480) Compressor = 180$~
Tank (undecided on ports and sizes) = 50~100$
DOT Airline = 50~100$
Valves (i only need 4 for a Front/Back setup) = 100$~
Gauge's, fittings, pressure switch, water trap, misc. = 200$ (probably much less)

I think that's it? I'm going for a basic setup though, and one that will hopefully be more reliable then the full ES kit. I think the ES kit is around 2200$ and it also is an FBSS kit.
