Default RE: brakes and suspension

i would get a good set off upper and lower rear control arms. im using UPR they were $216 shipped for both upper and lower. also i would get a adjustable pinion snubber, and subframe connectors, and maybe some drag springs. i dont run a front sway bar on my car, lots of people say it is dangerous, but as long as you remember that your dont handle well and slow down around curves you will be fine. here is how my car is setup: QA1 tubular chrom-moly K-member W/ matching A-arms, Lakewood 90/10's, UPR coil overs,no sway bar, flaming river manual rack, UPR subframe connectors, MAC pinion snubber, UPR rear control arms, Lakewood 50/50's, Moroso "trick springs", motive 4:10 gear, moser 33 spline spool, moser 33 spline 9" axles, Moser 8.8" style 9" housing ends. for brakes im using stock calipers, power slot rotors and hawk pads. i would upgrade my calipers, but i cant find any that will clear a 15" wheel that i can afford. it still stops better then it did from the factory.
