Default RE: What order to install??

I would do them all at the same time if that were possible.

Do the LCAs first while everything else holds the axle in place. Remove the OEM swaybar, panhard, and UCA. Replace the UCA, panhard, and swaybar in that order.

If you are doing the front swaybar that is a totally seperate job that has no bearing on the rear whatsoever.

A few comments though:

First off, you don't need adjustable LCAs and UCA. Only one needs to be adjustable...either lower or upper. I suggest the lowers, and get a solid upper. This is cheaper and stronger.

Also, were you planning on doing the front sway bar? If so, you might want to reconsider. There is no real point in replacing the front one. The front sway bar is already plenty stiff to control body roll. The whole point in replacing the rear is to remove understeer. To do that you have to stiffen the rear with respect to the front. But if you "uprade" the front one too, that is counterproductive. I say leave the front alone and replace the rear only.
