Exclamation Front Coil Overs? and roll cage? NEED SOME INFO

does anyone know a set of coilovers that will for the 2001 silverado? even a set that can be "made" to work?
if not what about a "trick" spring and an adjustable shock?

also has anyone tried the Roll Cage for Jegs? it says c10 up tp 2005 model?
i am getting close and these are a few things i am questioning

By the time you buy a junk cage that doesn't fit well and try to weld it in, then have to pay a good, local chassis shop to cut the old one out and bend you up a good one, its cheaper to just hit the local chassis shop up first

It would be worth your time to find one near you and have them do your cage.

Coil overs should be a problem. I think flaco has them on lil sis and spike has them on his truck i believe. Would just need to get the right height and spring rate
