I would say that the overwhelming consensus would be to definitely install them while you're under there.
They'll stiffen up the body for sure. The biggest decision is which kind to get.... bolt-in or weld-in. There are TONS of threads already here discussing the process and which direction to go.
Bolt-in types are just that.... they bolt in at the subframe where the body bushing is, and bolt in to the same points that the rear leaf front spring-eye bucket attaches.
Weld-in types are a whole other ball of wax.

I have the Jeg's bolt in ones and it seems like they were only around $100. However, since I've got my pinion angle dead on I don't want to install them between the spring eye bracket and frame, plus you have to remove the exhaust to be able to drill the frame where the rear bolt is supposed to go. I'm going to hack them up and weld them on.

Been a sponsor for years but never took the time! Kids, family ect...Now that we have a good full crew in place in the shop it allows me more time to get in touch with whats going on in the forums, its VERY time consuming! We have a lot of customers on here and get lots of calls everyday from people who heard about on us on the boards figured I would see whats up and say hello to some of our regular customers that are members here!
Hotchkis is the ones I was liking at the bolt on one, but I was reading about them and it said to have your car all together before installing them, and right now I have no interior or front clip on my car so I will have to do them later, I was hoping to do them when I replaced my rear and spring, I am tring to get it ready for the painter and finishing up all the wiring and getting the new engine fired up, Matt I will check your web site out, thanks everybody for the info
