I noticed this the other day, and decided to take some pics. The car has UMI LCA bolton relocation brackets that I checked out and are installed perfectly. You can see in the pictures where I have less clearance towards the rear on the passenger side. How can this happen? What got bent/warped/twisted/f###ked up?

Your car is lowered, it's not exactly stock suspension anymore. With the rear lowered springs, it's going to push the rear axle towards the back so yes, you will need a pair of adj LCAs to shorten the length therefore it'll move the rear axle forward a little.

lowering the car pushes the axel to the side not the back and that is why you need am adjustable phb

adjustable LCAs are made to center the tire in the middle of the wheel well, so i would get some

Yeah, I can't imagine how lowering the car would make one side get pushed back. If so, everybody would be recommending adjustable LCAs instead of a PHB when you lower your car.

I'm trying to find any bent parts, but I don't see any, or anything that may have caused this.

It's just factory tolerance. My car's the same way, which made me glad I bought adjustable LCAs in the first place.

I think there is something skewed with the relo brackets, think about it that's all that has changed? PHB basically adjusts the left to right of the rear and the LCAs adjust the rear into the center of the wheel well. Get some measurements off a stock car and start doing comparisons to make absolute sure that the relos are setup properly. One more thing, you may already know this but it's worth mentioning, when doing any measurements make sure the rear is under a load like on ramps or a drive on lift due to the phb setup.

I seriously doubt there's anything wrong with relo. brackets. Especially bolt-in ones because they only go in one way.

You do need your rearend perpindicular to the rest of the car tough. Adjustable LCA's will give you that adjustability. An adjustable PHB too to recenter the rear if necessary also.

I just installed an UMI adjustable panhard the other day, so that's fine, along with a UMI adj torque arm.. The position of the rear (that i speak of) did not change at all
