First of all, you'll need to widen your wheelbase if you consider using these wheels or it'll flip real easily.

here's a tut on a wide axle tut from Surgeon.

To eliminate bumpsteer in the front suspension and to increase steering, this is a great tut for it

Of course, stock rs upgrades is a must, such as bearings, awd and lift kit. don't forget to lock your diffs.
You might also want to consider gpm dogbones later on..

Hope this help!

EDIT: forgot to tell you about the articulation tut, look on the site, you'll find plenty of tut for it.
