just got back from vegas. what to do with my winnings?
So i just got back from Vegas. it was my first time and i managed to win 3k. i'm on the last leg of converting to 5 lug so my rear end is still up on jacks. i told myself if i win big then i'm going to buy LCA's, panhard bar, sub frame's, and possibly a torque arm with the winnings.
What should i buy? in other words is this the right route?

lol...... but really, for the money is it worth getting the torque arm? i put in polyurtherne bushings in my stock uppers, before i knew that it was a wrong idea. So either way i have to do something with the uppers.
i just know down the road i'm getting a coupe and want to build that one up real big so i don't wanna go all out on the vert.

GOOD idea
Waste of time
REALLY good idea
Another bad idea
A good set of control arms will eliminate the need for a PH bar AND torque arm.

www.maximummotorsports.com for the lowers and subframes

alright the only thing i need now are the uppers, but i'm a little worried about adj and setting the pinion angle, i don't need to screw anything up in the rear end. how hard is it to do and will i be able to do it at the house on jacks?

On jacks no, but you could use ramps or do what I did and put wood under the tires to get it up a few inches. They say your only saposed to do it on ramps or a drive on hoist. It's easy to check and adjust. And +1 on those uppers, I'll be buying some over the winter months.

well the mm lowers and the sub frame connectors came today. i don't know how long the uppers will take. baseline seemed kinda small business so hopefully they'll be here in the next couple days. its been 5 business days.
