Just wonering how many people used the stock hardware on ther lower control arms, panhard bar & torque arm. I'm getting ready to buy all three and was looking at some UMI stuff and they recomend new hardware. At 20 bucks per set it adds anoter $60 to the deal. Do you really need it?

It'd be a good idea for the torque arm, if nothing else.

We do recommend the new torque arm hardware if using an after market torque arm. This is because of how thick the new torque arm mounts are, it makes the factory bolts almost too short. Control arm and panhard bar you are fine to reuse the factory hardware.

If I can help anymore please ask. Thanks!
