Default LCA's

What exactly do these do? What differences would I be able to feel? If I plan on lowering 1-1.25" should I consider some?

I'm a newb to the subject and any reply would help, thanks

If you do lower your car get a Adjustable Panhard Rod also with the LCA's and Relocation Brackets.

helps traction by stabilizing the rear. keeps the rear end in place, keeps the rear from pushing into the car (yes i kno its extreme lol :everything in the rear breaks rear end pushes into the car ends up underneath you cuz it traveling faster than the car lol)...they do alot it seems i guessjust focus on my 1st response

The adj gives you the ability adj. vert the rear (lca's) and Horz (phr) so if you lower your car, these adjustments will play a roll to insure center/center.
