Those A-arms are set up for springs already. I wouldn't do coil-overs, some members have noticed fender distortion. Its a lot of weight for an area that wasn't meant to hold it.

I suggest Bilstein or Koni Shocks/Struts. We sell them both. I believe we have them in stock, I'll just have to check for you.
