bmr rear suspension setup!!
so on black friday i bought a complete bmr rear suspension setup which includes forward and rearward lateral arms and trailing arms. i already have bmr STB's and gmpp front and rear sway bars. this should stiffen up the suspension a bit

Cool stuff. I wanted to go with some BMR lats (I have UMI trailing arms), but for me, I did not see the purpose in them for the cost, so I stayed with stock.
Curious what your reviews will be

I am on factory springs. I have some plans to lower it, I'll post plans and pics when I get to that point lol
I heard a lot of good things about the full bmr kit so we shall see I'm excited but not sure when they will be put on, I gotta get lowered at the same time so I only need 1 alignment lol

Man your Monte Carlo is going to be so over the top John! Heck with this suspension setup and all of Turbo Monte's power your going to own the road. Cornering, pulling ramps at high G's, road courses etc. not much your not going to be able to handle out there. Very nice mods to get behind you, You getting ready to try and run some red Monte into the dirt? LOl

No doubt that the BMR and GMPP parts will help. Good stuff!!
Hopefully you get it in and some road/track time before the GM Nats

I'm thinking the bmr stuff and getting lowered will not happen before gm nats but we shall see.
I still have to buy my turbo headers, meth kit, intercooler charge pipe, trans pan spacer and then get all this installed, still install the trans then tune it before gm nats. I think I'm running out of time

Nice!!!!! Kyle from BMR actually took care of my order for me, and hooked it up with free shipping to boot!!!!
I really didn't need to order a new kit to refresh but hell why not...lol If I didn't already have the complete red setup, I would have went hammer tone. I'll post pics of my order, it's sitting for now...lol Those bastard did forget a sticker though (I only got 3)!!! haha
Also, if you want the "BMR" sway bars that they use to offer, I can provide you with part numbers; they were/are Addco sway bars; I spoke to BMR about this personally.
EDIT: Reeading; FTW...lol just saw you went with GMPP sways...

I just bought brand new front and rear gmpp sway bars so I'm gonna use them if I knew this before I bought the gmpp ones I probably would of got the addco ones.
