Are you talking about the bars around the rear axle area? If so, you have the panhard rod, the panhard rod brace, and the rear sway bar back there. As for the control arms, the rear only has lower control arms, the front has both upper and lower.

Hmm goes the rear sway bar,the panhard bar,the lower control arms and then I thought I saw another set of bars higher that look like lca"s. Not sure how else to explain it.

Re: panhard bar ,lca"s,torque arm what else?

All that is in our rear ends is Shocks, Springs, Torque arm (concidered rear), Sway bars, LCA's, PHB and PHB brace (the upper bar) People make an PHB brace (upper piece) that can clear true duals. Never heard of anyone having trouble w/ the upper piece.

You could do the LCA RLB's and maybe some QA1 rear shocks, if you're looking for a drag shock. The springs are easy as pie to do in the rear. front's take a bit more work and dismantling.

Wouldn't think so... I haven't herd of problems with it... unless they were runnign tru duals and ran into clearance problems...

If you're so inclined you could, I guess..I don't think it would effect anything.

BMR does make an aftermarket piece to replace it, but the only purpose it serves is to provide clearance to those who are running true duals.
