Well I I finally got the parts to swap out my rear end. I'm going with a moser 12bolt with 4.10 gears. Also going with umi suspension parts. Lca, panhard par, drag sway bar, torque arm with drive shaft loop, lca relocation brackets, 3 point sfc, and qa1 coil over shocks. Also changing out my fuel pump while I have the rear end apart. And install a nitrous outlet kit. Prob run a 100 shot. Mickey Thompson drag radials 275/50 15 on the back and Mickey Thompson sportsmans 26x6 15 on the front and there all mounted on weld pro stars. Also installing under drive pulley set, msd coil, msd plug wires, msd digital 6 plus ignition, and msd opti. And putting on new brakes all the way around and line lock on the car.
Right now everything is outta the back and I'm just going to get everything done on the back this weekend and work on the other stuff next weekend. I'll put some pics up tomorrow night.

I'd be happier than a kid in a candy store if that was in my garage. Subscribed, gotta see the outcome.

Pretty much the same setup as mine. You will like it. I loved my drag swaybar.

do you have any suggestions on what to set the suspesion to? i got most of the rear in but the shocks are looking a little stressed but the rear is still sitting pretty low in the car, and i think they will look better once i get the rear back to where its normally sits in the car. the only thing i really need is pinion angle and how far back the axle should sit? thanks

On the pinion angle I set mine at -2*, on the LCA mesaure your stock ones for a staring point. I set my drag bar up as the instructions said and never had to mess with it. Set it on the street setting. As far as the coil overs go you just need to have your ride height where you want it. Once all that is done take it in for an alignment.

Anyone else find it hard to get the calliper brackets on? And what did you do to get the tight? I had to make a custom tool to get it pretty tight. 2100321004
