8.8 swap

I am loving reading through this thread. I cant wait to get my hands on that 2001 3L73 xploder XLT rear axle. Should i grab the rear sway bar with it? Any use for that, or should i leave that behind. Was gonna grab the driveshaft too. Not sure if thats useable or if an aerostar one is a better bet. One things for certain, i feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning. Any thoughts on what else to grab with it besides the U bolts and spring plates.
It’s an option but I would go with C-clip eliminators also along with Carbon F clutches. The C-clips are the weakest link on this rear end, if they break in the housing the axle will Just walk right out the housing. I’ve heard of guys saying that they’re pretty tough and the odds are low of them breaking, but Strange makes. C-clip kit that’s around a $200 bucks. I used spring plates from Speedway that are only $30 per side.
