Default got a question on relocation brackets?

all right, im getting ready to lower my car with the DMS springs(not sure what brand of panard rod and lower control arms to go with the springs) But the real question is where do I find relocation brackets that will work with a Moser 12 bolt?

I want the car lowerered and recentered but the relocation brackets ive looked at dont work with aftermarket rearends.thx-Drew

I just made my own out of a $4 piece of steel from the hardware store. Not sure why people are willing to pay over $100 for those things, especially if you have to modify them to fit. I have a Moser 9 inch, so I just cut the metal to fit that axle, then welded them on.

They look a lot like the UMI ones pictured in the link above. The UMI brackets are a good choice if you're not into fabing your own.

Glad to help, I usually don't like to post like that. I don't like people to think I am trying to push a sale.

Just more trying to help out, but a sale is always good as well

Thanks for the comment Cal

I agree, UMI parts are well made and are great if you don't want to fab your own like Cal over there.

BTW, Cal... not everyone has the fabrication skills of Scaled Composites...
