i plan on beefin up the rear suspension so i can run slicks and not worry about rippin the torque box's out.

what i have so far on the list to get is:

CE weld on full length subframe connectors, CE torque box reinforcements, edelbrock ias shock (if it matters for those), and bbk upper + lower control arms.

would i need traction bars with the above parts or should it be ok with what i have listed?

thanks

was kinda lookin at these, they reminded me of the SouthSides that were on the 84. only problem i had with them was you could either bolt or weld the side ears to the axle. bolted them first but ended up ripping the bolts out so i welded them. never had a problem with them as far as the rest of the rearend was concerned

BBK is weak. They don't give me any traction.
