R&R rear end? Is it a straight unbolt or what? Also, 5lug ??'s
I'm swapping rear ends in my cars.
Basically I'm thinking it'll be easier to just unbolt the rear subframe from each car (with everything still attached, if possible) and just switch them out.
Car number 1 is stock
Car number 2 has: 3.73's, 5lug/rear disk, saleen springs, kyb quads, qa1 12ways, aftermarket lca, etc.
Also, after I do this, I'm doing the front suspension but I'll probably just unbolt the shock/spring then remove the hubs since I'll be swapping the 5lug out.
When I do this brake swap, what else should I take from car 2 to transfer to the new car, like mastercylinder or anything?
Thanks guys

1 bolt on each of your upper control arms, 1 bolt on each of your lower control arms, e-brake cables, brake lines, and your two shocks.... and it will roll out from under the car

****ing awesome, doesn't sound bad at all.
What about the front? Should I do it all as one, or tear it down?
