What do I need for 12 bolt install?

I want everything to go smoothly so what do I need to buy besides the 12 bolt. I've read that 4.11 will cause traction problems and that I need to buy some stuff like a torque arm. What you all think about that? Let me know y'all.

Thanks

uhmmm....tools

j/k....

ABSA...if yer doing a 12 bolt, you are looking to leave hard...yes? May as well go w/a taller gear. Traction won't be an issue with ET Streets/Drags(on a good prep), and the 4.11's will act as a tq. multiplier getting the car moving forward quicker....JMFUO....

AFA what else...LCA's/re-lo brackets are a good bang for the buck mod in planting the rear and reducing wheel hop. Not sure you need a beefier TA just yet as there are many guys doing sub 1.60 60's w/more rwhp/tq. If you didn't order new U-joints w/the rear(front & back) now is the time.

Don't forget fluid...
