I had a seto of BMR welded on my rear when I did the swap, I have the contorl arms in the upper hole, shich is still lower then the stock one, car hooked pretty good considering the track conditions... and I don't have adj. shocks on the car yet. I'm gonna try dropping the control arms into the lower holes and see if it's better yet... I'll post back when I get a chance to test it.

Please post the results, I would like to hear if they help. I do not have relocation brackets yet but my car is dead hooking all the time anyway. If I start to spin, relocation brackets are the only thing left I haven't done and I will probably want to try them.

Got mine from UPS today. Ordered them from Bynspeed free shipping....BUT they shipped to the wrong address. I got them anyway...

I think my mechanic will put them on next week. Let us know if they help. I need something!!!!! The rear contol arm on my car is higher than the front mount and I talked to BMR and they said the fronts should be higher than the rear for the best instant center on the car. Looked at my friends Stock TA and his where pointing the same way also. Must be the way they come.

I am hoping for good things.....! What hole do people put them in? Bottom or middle????

I have the BMR on a 12 bolt and i put the LCA in the middle whole (one below the stock one) because on the bottom whole the car would bogg really bad from hooking so hard. I actually had better 60' with them in the middle whole. 1.39 60' is the best so far. bottom whole was 1.50's. The Sphon maybe different? Same thing on a friends SS. the bottom killed his 60'.

I just come in from the shop installing mine. Instalation was pretty smooth., I stuck them in the bottom hole to first try. I am having major traction issues so mabey it will work for me too. Also went with some BMR adjustable LCAs from Lakewood boxed. Well see Tuesday what they do.

Question

Do they lower your ground clearance at all?

No, The relocation brackets will not change or effect ride height.

Hope that helps!
