Default To anyone with LCA relocation brackets.............

I was looking into getting them from BMR. Do you like them? How much of a difference did they make in your launch on street tires? Are yous welded or bolted in? How much did you pay for the welding?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Default Re: To anyone with LCA relocation brackets.............

I pretty much asked the same question a few days ago in the suspension section. Here's what I learned.

Bolt in's are O.K. if your doing the mod and don't have a welder. As soon as your done putting the car back together with the bolt in's take the car and get them WELDED in place. The area is just to much of a high stress area not to welded the relocation brackets in place.

Global West also make a nice set of weld in's that can be adjusted as needed. These might be worth a look too.

They also recommended doing the air bag in the right rear the same time as doing this, after all your in there might as well. I think most say try the air bag at 15 lbs starting out.

I'm sure some other will chime in...
