While I'm building this rear end......

Is it worth my time to box the stock LCA's and stock Panhard bar?

Can I expect to feel any difference from this?

I speculate to have around 350-400 rwhp

A friend did that on a 4gen with great results. High 9's with 650rwhp. And it had a stock torque arm but that ripped in half.

I would not waste my time. The stock bushings are probably shot.

You can get new lakewood arms with greasable poly bushings for under $100

Lakewood adj. panhard rod about $100 also.
