I installed the brackets,with my stock lca arms,i put them in lower hole,of the 2,now when turning i get a popping,or going to reverse from forward,or back to forward its loud,i also noticed now that my drivers side is sitting 1 inch higher than the other side,it wasnt like that before they were installed,any ideas what is wrong. I lower car on the ground loosened the lca bracket from the arms pushed up and down on the car ,retightened it, still the same,i did notice when installing the brackets i had a real hard time getting shocks to mount up .......help

I'm running the Founders poly/rod on car adjustable LCAs and the relocation brackets and I am having zero issues with them. When you installed the brackets did you alter the e-brake bracket any? Normally you will either have to bend one side out or cut a piece off. If you bent it, I would check to make sure that it is not rubbing/hitting something else. What problem did you have getting the shock back on?

The e brake bracket i bent out installed arms tapped braket with hammer bolted it up,the shocks seems to be out of alinment,had to tap them in with a hammer after using a pry bar to move the brackets in place

The best way to install these is to place the shock mount side on first loose and then rotate the lca side up in place. The angle of the shock mount makes it difficult to do it in reverse.
