Default LCA Relocation Brackets

Hi all i am just wondering if Lower control Brackets are NOT needed if the car is NOT lowered? I have a stock 99 Trans Am with 17inch Rims and Drag Radials Stock Ride height. I might do the Heater Hose Mod to the rear springs to lower the rear a tiny bit and am wondering if i should get the LCA Relocation brackets or not?

If you decide to do it, look at where the LCA bolts to the rear end..if that mount is HIGHER than where it bolts to the chassis, than you need them.

LCA's aren't a bad call even on unlowered cars. You can play with the instant center on the car to help plant the tires better. Not a bad investment on a car that will see some track time.
