Default BMR bolt-on LCA relocation brackets

Is there a website to buy these from?

i know its proven to reduce .2 from your 1/4 mile time. Is it just one of those free mods with some wrench time? Or can i actually buy this.

Cool Relocation Brackets

Hi:
This is not a free mod. You have to purchase the relocation brackets. You have the option of weld in ones, or bolt on ones. Either one will give you better traction. If you don't mind welding stuff on your rear end then get the weld in ones. Otherwise get the bolt on ones. Prices and specs are in the link to BMR Rear End LCA Relocation Brackets.
Hope this helps.
And BTW, I have a black set of bolt in relocation brackets that I had in my car. I changed my mind about the color and I bought a set of red ones for mine. The blacks ones have about almost a year of use.
Give me a reasonable offer and I will let them go. E-mail me with any questions or any offers.

If you go with the boltins just get them welded in regardless. Had my friend @ Midas weld mine on for $20. He welded every possible location inside and out and there is no way bolt-ons will hold up compared to welding. Have not been to the track to compare the difference with or without, just seemed to make sense how they correct the axle angle under torque.

Far as I know, drive mine everyday and have never heard otherwise. They just better align your driveline angle, not that big a deal really. I bought mine at SpeedDemon off 1960.

I ran a search on these a while back and the ultimate conclusion was that they decrease your braking performance and I decided not to buy them. It makes sense that if you're planting your rear tires on take off they're gonna plant your front tires during braking, ie increased inertia to the front. The reason they are straight from the factory was to get the 50/50 split.
