I got a 1993 s-10 on 20's 2.5L that i'll be baggin' in january, and I've been pulled both ways on this one question... I plan on using the new SD.com arms, but I dont know if i should get the upper, or lower ones. Unfortunatly for now, it's one or the other. So which one should I replace now? and which one should I replace at a later time?

ALSO.....

b/c of the 20's.. I realize that i'll have to do some work to the firewall. If anyone has any pictures of their firewall tubbed, and what they did with the heater core.. it would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

I'd go with the uppers first because they help re-align the upper ball joint so it doesn't bind and possibly even break.
The lowers are nice to have, but really it's not too hard to modify your stock lowers to clear the frame like tubular ones.
You can modify the ball joint angle on your uppers with a pie cut and some welding, but I'm personally not too fond of that method.
