Quick question, where do you get bodies from?

Nice, the guy is in Canada.

Ok next question is, where can i source shocks like yours? Or, at the very least a good set of shocks.

I used RB5/ZX5 standard bore shocks on mine. You can alternately use RB7/ZX7 big bore shocks, with the appropriate spacers to make them fit.

For the hub carriers, knuckles and steering... If I used parts off lazers (zx5 zx6 zx7) could optima parts work too?

Possibly? I haven't tried...

So after some looking I think optima front carriers are a bust as the lower pivot point is on the inside. It would push the track out like 3/4 of an inch on each side if i used those. Not even sure what front shafts I'd need then but certainly not optima ones lol. Unless I swapped in optima front arms... Oh man I'm gonna be doing some math here to figure this one out.
