the car is gunna be a DD with some trips to the track and probably a bit of street racing. yes i have subframe connectors and i am getting 31 spline axles so i can launch a little harder. so upper and lower control arms are all i need to finish this? would traction bars hurt? i mean they are only like 30 bucks of summit racing so i wouldnt mind spending the money. i also need to completly weld in the torque boxes right?

i would diffenetl weld in the torque boxs if you put on new control arms... if u rip them up u cant really fix them u gotta buy new ones... and ull have to do mroe work and spend more money.. its better to fix the problem form happening than having to fix the problem that u create

+1 you should weld them up, also get some torque box reinforcements from e-bay, that will make them super strong.
