Finally got my tax return put to good use. Ordered Maximum Motorsports Extreme Duty weight jacker lowers, Baseline street outlaw uppers, Maximum Motorsports full length subframe connectors, and torque box reinforcements. I'm going to be needing new tires soon as well. Currently running Nitto Invos and am planning on switching to Continental Extreme Contact DW.
Any comments or suggestions on install and such?

Soak all nuts/bolts in something like WD-40 a day or two before install. Everything comes apart easier. Also install the torque box plates before the control arm install, we don't want any bushings to get too hot.

Good info. Thank you

I have a tutorial maybe. Search for it and you'll find it if i posted it, but its so simple you cant mess up.


EDIT: found it for you

Thanks for the link, but I'm actually working with the rear suspension.

I'm familiar with how everything comes apart and goes back together. I'm more looking for tips to assist in install, or anything out of the ordinary I might encounter with these products.

Additionally, what are some recommendations on pinion angle for this setup with the mods listed in my signature?

usually the lower control arm to axle bracket bolts rush inside the collar of the control arm bushing and are a pita, soak them and whack em with an air hammer and that usually does the trick.

I'm pretty sure I've had that bolt out within the past few months when I was messing with springs, so hopefully it won't cause a problem. But it is noted.

Last of the parts came in today. Not entirely sure when I will get to start install yet.
