Great Job! I did the changes too -- but didn't replace the cradle bushings -- just the inserts -- and only had to 'lower' the cradle -- you took yours' out -- that's awesome!

Are you also replacing the upper control arm bushings?

A++++ for taking out the cradle!

Yep, that is the way to go. I didn't need to do the full bushings, but did all the upgrades -- lower control arms (FE4/1LE), BMR Adjustable Toe and Trailing arm/bushings, uppers, 1LE shocks/Struts, sways front and rear, and radius arm inserts.

HUGE difference in the handling --
I didn't have a lift so it was all on jack stands -- still, taking out the cradle is something...

Congrats!

yes your a right on makes a big difference in handling, I needed the full cradle bushings for the bad wheel hop was getting with pushing 750-800 hp.
