Default relocation brackets need to be in car w/o being lowered?

I took out my BMR lowering springs and went back to stock springs in the rear. does have the relocation bracket mess up anything and does it need to be installed still?

thanks

Nah, I am running the relocation brackets in mine, and my car isn't lowered. Works nicely.

have heard they help a non-lowered car also. (no expert, just done some research myself) while they may not help as drastically on a stock-height car, they should help with wheel hop. I dont see where they'd mess anything up. (i actually have a set waiting to go on my stock-height car to get rid of some wheel hop)

If you get rear brake hop then move to the higher
hole, otherwise it's all bonus.

So do you have some wicked f-body rake in the stance now? Does it rake up towards the rear a lot? Might look badass!
