Lcas
Torque arm

The rest arnt really needed until we get more details of your setup. Phb does nothing for straight line traction. Relo brackets are only needed if your lowered, sfcs are debatable.

^^^^
LCAs- if you plan on lowering at somepoint, go adjustable
torque arm- i would say get the relocation crossmember first to get it off your trannys tail housing. ive heard that the stocker does pretty well and isnt really needed unless it is a high hp car doing hard launches. others can chime in on that

i would also suggest wider/stickier tires with wider wheels if you havent already done that.

Like others have said I would first go with LCA's and maybe and PHB, I would do a quick measuring and see how the rear sets in the car, then make the decision on an adjustable PHB.

I would for sure be thinking ahead about a torque arm to get it off the trans.

why go adj control arms lowered? Mine arn't adj. and ive got no problems. When i got the 12 bolt ordered they thru on the lower control arms brackets for free so i can't say i really did those first but i did. Then i did lower control arms subframe conectors and just did the torque arm. In that order is how i did them my cars lowered and the tq arm make a huge diff in how the car felt putting power down.

Give me a call... I have a proven working combination of parts with the best prices and quality to go with it. I can help you with your setup as well after the parts are installed to get you hooked up and going straight. The fastest f-body cars are trusting MWC for all their suspension needs. The results don't lie!
