Default Lca Relocation Brackets

Well I Lowered My 99 T/a With The Eibach Pro Kit And Its Pretty Good But The Rear End Gets No Damn Traction! I Heard About The Lca Relocation Brackets. I Heard That They Reaaaallly Help With Wheel Hop....anybody Have These On Their Cars? If So What Can Be Noticed? Do You Get A Lot More Tire Wear? Also, Does Anyone Use The Bolt On Brackets Instead Of The Weld On? Are They Good? Any Rattleing? Noise?problems?etc? Let Me Know.

Thanks

id recommend weld on oppossed to bolt on, and they usually reduce 60 times about .1 or .2, and dpending on the traction increase, the tire wear will directly decrease.

I got the bolt-on brakets on stock ride height.

Things I've noticed; hitting the gas pedal with the right amount of pressure I'll still spin but then car get traction and pulls better then before. I've seen improvment on taking a corner faster. Noise, my passenger window has started to rattle unlike before but I don't think its because of the lca relocation brackets. When apply the brakes sometimes i hear a very low clunk, depending how muc brake pressure I apply. But this may be because i have not bolted up the rear screw to the lca bracket.

Also i think on lowered cars, lca relocation brackets are a must.

I just put on a set of BMR bolt on brackets today. It not only has better traction but it feels like it rides much better(not sure why). If you go with bolt on's i would go with the bmr's there very sturdy and have more bracing compared to some others.

I got bmr bolt-ons.

When you put the bmr bolt-ons, you have to break the ear of the stock brake line braket so the r.l.b. can fit snug, but because you have to break the ear of the stock bracket you have to put a bolt so the stock bracket can be more sturdy.

If you decide to get the bolt-ons you'll see what im talking about. It is a very simple installation.
