I completed the rear trailing arm large bushing replacement and also the torque rod bushings.
Everything went very well and only minor alingments to get the bolt holes in position including new rear shocks.
I also replaced the sway bar with the IPD rear and front kit.
Yes I also replaced both front control arms and added poly bushings to each inculding new sway links with poly's.
After a test ride I cetainly noticed a huge impovement on handeling however, two things I noticed os a slight vibration at about 30mph from the rear and now my steering wheel is just slightly to the right in a straight run.

My thought to the vibration, is it possible to have a difference in the drive shaft and the ujonts are sounding ware?

As for the offset the steering wheel I'm not sure. I did not distrube the ball jonts or tie rod position.

Any thoughts?

I will post some pics of the job later
