the prospec would have the machined towers, captured(nut style)hinge pins, the thicker suspension mounts, and aluminum rear hub carriers. With $150 worth of KHZ stuff, it sounds like the guy you got it from most likely had the standard version truck and upgraded it. When I ran the moog 5t, i ran 7/10/2 in the diffs, and 400/350 in the shocks. I think most of the rest of the setup was the prospec box setup, I just borrowed the truggy from my former boss,I never owned it, but I really liked that truck, and that setup worked pretty well. I would imagine that a Scott Hughes or Bobby Tillman setup would be pretty good.

well looks like it is a prospec kit then...i was noticing the rear carriers and also just noticed the captured hinge pins...unless he upgraded everything on the car it is a prospec...i guess thats even better for me...not a bad buy i guess...
