Default Suspension problems

So my Camaro was acting like a POS. That is around 65mph the rear end would wobble like crazy as if I were in a boat. I checked the panhard and seen it was loose - replaced it with a UMI unit. Next was my brakes where pulling to the right. When I checked the lower control arm it was broke - replace it with UMI unit. Next I was getting a clucking sound when put it into gear. I checked the torque arm and it was loose - replaced with UMI unit. Last I put UMI subframe connectors on it and man I don't loose my traction now. Wow my camaro is like riding or rails now - thought I would share as those suspension parts do help out alot.
