I've decided to do a solid rear in the near future, but I'm not knowledgeable at all when it comes to suspensions. I'm mainly doing it to save some weight and eliminate the wheel hop (before someone suggests it, I'm not interested in building the IRS). The car won't be seeing excessive track use, and I don't plan on running a stickier tire than DR's.

This is what I have put together so far:

Complete GT 8.8 w/
ABS Sensors
Pinion Snubber
Springs
control arms
exhaust hangers
All shocks
Soild Axle complete from caliper to caliper
Ebrake cables

I will be swapping in the following:
Moser 31 spline axles
Eaton 31 spline posi
UPR non-adj upper and lower control arms
Strange shocks (10-way adj)
UPR coilover kit
Rear girdle brace
Swaybar
Welded axle tubes

Are there additional components I should replace for my intended use? Will it be a good setup for aprox. 650whp?

Thanks in advance.

BTW I have of course read postban's writeup, that is where I decided to use the axles and posi from.
