If your happy with your 60' times I wouldn't change anything. If you think they could be better then give em a try. I would say weld in if you decide to get em.

I recommend them but I don't think they make bolt in ones for aftermarket axles.

I go ahead and get them if I were you. They're a good investment in the long run. BMR's weld-in relocation brackets are the one's we always use. We can get them for you if you like. Give me a call if you're interested. 225-673-3533

I recommend to have them as well... and the nice thing is you can always put the control arm back in the factory location IF for some reason they were not working for your set-up.

Unfortunately no one makes bolt in brackets for the Moser rear ends... but we do offer a set designed specifically for the Moser 9", the part # is 2011 and they can be seen here- www.umiperformance.com/2011

If you have any questions please ask. Thank you!

Get the relocation brackets. They are needed. Give us a call and we can send you a set plus a tune up for the chassis.

cbra-klla I do not have them! But you have some good tech guys giving you advice so I hope you don't mind if I add to your thread by asking for their input! I know we are always looking for ways to go faster!!

I am running all Spohn on my car with a Billingsley Racing 9 inch. I am running stock springs with hose on the top and stock shocks. I am currently using 26X10 ET Drags and the car runs 1.44 to 1.43 60 foots NA all day long with my 346 CI, TH400 Formula.

Would the relocation brackets help that much over what the car is doing now? I thought you use these brackets if the car is lowered.

I attached a photo of the launch!

Thanks,

N2
