what are the affects of having a car with relocation brackets, but the car not lowered?

the car has built suspension except the torque arm is stock. The car is not lowered, but it has relocation brackets.

Can I just leave them on? will this affect anything at all? I don't want to lower the car right now.

You can have them on without having the car lowered. The only affect is better traction (when set up/angled properly of course)

Hey guys.

I agree, there is no particular detriment to running them in the low holes. Depending on what tendency your car has balance-wise, they can induce some roll oversteer as the outer arm gets longer (in the arc) and the inside arm gets shorter.

For a car that has some understeer they just could balance it.

Hey there, I replied to your PM. Sorry for the delay. I was on vacation.

Here is a thread that I went into some good detail on the lower control arm relocation brackets for a few other members.
