If you plan to do everything at once my suggestion would be to do the bushings first and installed the mod when it's time to install the subframe bolt. Take your time as you will need to lower the subframe a bit. If I recall correctly you should only need to loosen 1 bolt at a time. I had loads of notes and read a lot of tips and tricks before doing the install lol

Do you know if it's compatible with the TRD member brace set?

It looks like the rear brace bolts directly to the subframe bolt. Same as the MCA mod. Did the trd brace kit use a longer bolt ?
I guess it could work with the right combo of bolts and washers/spacers but without better pictures it's hard to say.

Yes, the brace set has a longer bolt. Furthermore, the thickness of the MCA bracket lowers the attach point, so I'm not sure the TRD brace will sit in the right place.
