97 bravada good into crazy

[Breakkout]

hey everyone.. i have a 97 bravada just hit 104k miles...runs well overall good interior and paint. dent on the crease of the hood and cracked front right fender....

replaced cv axles while ago.. something like 2 yrs 10k miles.. also front brakes...still get the bang full tilt and the passenger well sounds like a semi.. random screech/rubbing sounds idk rear axle maybe passanger side at times idk its awful maybe suspension something.. definitely shot its got sway bounce pretty good...probably need wheels balanced as well...

code for purge valve leak replaced valve little later than the previous work mentioned.. codes back again idk lines seem fine as far as i can tell (didnt check 100%) unfortunately stripped the manifold while investigating so that wont help.. starts hard every once in a while which i ve heard is a side effect of emissions junk.. doesnt seem drastic though..
also cyl 1 misfire code recently but i think its random it runs pretty well ike i said..

ANYWAYS i wanna do this thing stoopid.. v8 6 inch lift body work (i imagine will be mostly custom $$ since the bravada isnt exactly a classic lol)

but i havent seen much about the bravadas and im thinking the electrical savy stuff will be dificult.. im not a car guy but if i have examples a good idea i can get it done... plus my familys a bunch of car nuts OG michigan GM people. i wish every car enthusiast could experince my great uncle talking about going fast and engines... worthy of a eye twinkle movie scene..

dont have a good worl space unfortunately so im gonna just plan heavy until i can keep it protected.

thanks for any help/good parts!
