Default LCA relocations

Is there any point in buying relocation brackets with stock LCA's and stock height? I want to help get my 60 foot down. Planning on buying comp adjustable drag shocks as well.

Do you drag race and did you notice a difference in your 60s?

The relocation brackets will help keep the tires planted and reduce the tendency of wheel hop. Paired up with a set of adjustable LCA will help with better and more consistent 60s.

Give us a call or email and we will be happy to work with you on your setup.

Yep, they will work as a good traction device with factory control arms. A lot of times it is fun to install one item at a time to see which ones really helped. You can always add control arms at a later date.

Check out our bolt in design with three locations to place the control arm and you do not need adjustable control arms with them:
