Hello, as devil stated lower control arms and relocation brackets will help out along with the sticky tires of course. Lower control arms will give you a much more solid suspension and the relocation brackets allow you to adjust your "instant center" to help you transfer weight better. We offer several different styles of lower control arms, tubular, boxed, and billet aluminum. We have adjustable and non adjustable versions. The adjustable versions are available with either bushings or QA1 rod ends. The non adjustable version has a very high durometer bushing. The boxed version is made from 3" x1.5" rectangular tubing, the non adjustable from 1.25" x.120 wall dom steel and the on car adjustable versions from 1.25" x .95 4130 chrome moly steel. We offer two styles of relocation brackets, a weld on version for stock or aftermarket rearends and a bolt on version for strange or factory rears. Made from strong 3/16" laser cut, cold rolled steel. Both versions will lower the rear of the control arms up to 3" and work with all makes of control arms. Also something to consider is up grading your torque arm. Take a look at our site and if you have any questionsd please give me a call. We are in the office till 6 pm est mon-fri.
