Default UMI Subframe Connectors and LCAs

Well, I installed my SFCs and LCAs. What a different ride with sfc...it doesn't feel like my car folds in half any more. As for LCAs I think I need relocation brackets to see a difference. The parts look so good (red) out of the box. I had a hard time getting them off the work bench and under the car.

Hey, good morning. Thanks for the kind words about the quality of finish on your parts. Our assemblers actually make sure there aren't any smudges on them before packaging.

LCAs help because of their increased rigidity and bushing improvements. They make the rear suspension more accurate and keep things as the factory intended for suspension motion. If your car is lowered or high hp or both, relocation brackets definitely improve forward traction and reduce wheel hop tendency.

Merry Christmas

I has bad axel hop before and after lowering. Umi lca's and brackets helped plant the rear and seems to have gotten rid of the axel hop.
