I'm trying to slowly get my car together for some weekend warrior duty then one day throw some boost at it. (I've always been one to get bunch of precautionary mods done before I push it at the track). After I get a new UCA (whiteline issue) I'm going to move to LCA, relocation brackets, sway bar relocation, and possibly an axle brace. I'd like to get these all together before I do any of it that way I can have the axle tubes welded and the relocation brackets welded all at the same time. Goal is to get the power down and not have to worry about breaking the rearend.

I used the CHE brace on my 2011 M6 5.0. The make it where it fits a LPW or TA style rear differential cover and mates up perfectly with all the CHE lower control arm relo brackets. It works. When I broke my axle the internals of the rear survived. It helps to keep the axle flexing forward putting stress on the spider gears and differential bearings. To get it all setup properly the following parts are recommended:

To this day I use all CHE control arms and mounts on my 2012. I sold the axle tube brace as the auto doesn't hit the tires like a manual.
