What's the best primer to use before bedlining the floors? I sprayed the floors with rustoleum rust reformer. Should I use self etching primer?

None. Bedline over raw metal.

I wouldn't do the RC tie rod upgrade. They use stock size tres. Do a ZJ one

0331 head, coil packs, and LP axles are about the three big things. Not that big of a deal
