so i bought a rear end (whole axle from wheel to wheel) from the south with 3.73 gears and NO RUST..so im going to put the whole thing in my car since i have 2.73 gears and a **** ton of rust while im there i wana update/upgrade some of my other stuff that should be done but im not sure what i should do for sure so im looking for some input...im not changing springs cuz mine are find and they are lowering springs and i already have a set of new shocks so im thinking things like LCA, sway bar, Panhard bar, maybe torque arm but those look spendy haha....and small things like brake lines, links and so on?

what would u do if u were in my shoes?

A UMI adj torque arm was the first thing I did to my suspension and it was worth every penny. But i think you have the right idea of what to do. Control arms make a big different too

yea cuz iv had a couple people tell me to do LCA and relocation brakets cuz i have lowering springs on the car

Yeah if it's lowered relocation brackets and an adj phb is good. The adj ta is good to so you can make sure your pinion angle is where it needs to be

Adjustable panhard rod for sure. LCA reloc brackets and rear LCAs wouldn't hurt, especially if you're getting wheel-hop. Rear sway bar change typically goes better with a front sway bar change to make sure they're matched properly; same with the brake lines - if you're going to do braided stainless, you might as well do all four corners.

Torque arm is never a bad idea, but one of the things I'd leave for last.

I would do lower control arms, adjustable panhard rod, lower control arm relocation brackets, and adjustable torque arm. Theses are all parts you are going to have to remove to swap out the rear end and they are all parts that will really help the handling and performance of the vehicle especially since the car is lowered. If you are interested in any BMR parts shoot me a PM or give me a call here at the shop and I am sure I can work out some pricing for you.
