Lower controll arms not even with the ground..
I was under my car the other day going to change my snow tires to my summer drag radials and was looking around for maintenance things(brakes,bushings,grease for bushings). I noticed that the lower controll arms are not even to the ground. They are about 1+inches higher on the rear end than where they attach to the front of the car. I know all about lowering a car and the need for relocation brackets but i havent lowered my car, well not with springs anyway. The only think i can think of is the added speaker box/amp and what ever i put in the trunk. The amp and box are 100lbs(weighed them) not to mention the other stuff i keep in the back. Would 150lbs be enough to make the controll arms to be not even with the ground. I think this is why im having major traction problems and i cant hook up at the track despite adj torque arm,sub frames,controll arms and adj rear shocks. I did order the brackets but im still confused how they are not even with the ground(could it just be the added weight to the back) any thoughts would be great..
