First Suspension Mod?

First Suspension Mod?
I will be installing 4.10 gears this week. My car hooks really good now, but I'm afraid I will spin really bad when I get my gears. I don't want to lower my car, because I live on a dirt road and bottom out at times. Right now I'm running 285/40/18s on the back.
So my question is this, do I need to upgrade my rear suspension to help keep the rear tires planted? Since I'm not lowering I assume I can use a non-adjustable LCA. Are LCAs stand alone? Or do I need to do the uppers as well. Oh yeah, and what about spherical bushings?
Thanks in advance.

I would definitely grab a set of LCAs. Non-adjustable poly's since you don't want to lower.
Just an example:

When I first got my car I could wheelhop the hell out of it, so first thing I did was a set of BMR's.

If I order from Amazon I get free two day shipping and I can get them installed before the gears get here.

Good to know that's a solid brand. I like the fact that you can grease them. I should have them installed ahead of the gears, or during the gear install. Either way, I'm excited to get it done.

I'm not sure yet, they charge $75 an hour. Said they thought about four hours. Taking it to my GM dealer (flame on right). But it's the only shop around and I trust these guys implicitly. So I'm gonna guess around $300. They do great work there, give me a car to drive, and don't rake me over the coals. Last time I drove around in the new Corvette Grand Sport while I waited on my oil change.
