I got the whole rear end off ebay for $35.00!!!!!! Its only bout an hour away got to go pick it up this saturday. I think it had about 160,000 miles on it but "Bob" (the guy i got it from) said the drivetrain on the car was in perfect working order, i am going to change the seals and fluid when i get it anyway.

Actually you only need one panhard bar...you need 2 lower control arms, a torque arm, and sway bar for the rear and you will have a nice handling rear end!

Got the 3.73 put in! Found out its a posi too! I have to work on a couple rattles but other than that it's great! Extremely fast acceleration. When i put it into reverse and it was at 1500 RPM it spun the tires without giving it any gas. I can smoke the tires really easy now too. its frikin awesome!
