The LCA's will definately help with traction. I would get relocation brackets with it as well, especially if you plan on lowering the car.

Bolt on would be easiest. That's what I would go with.

Bolt-on relocation brackets is what I have. Easy to install (and FREE). You then also have the options of taking them out and selling them if you ever sell the car.

I added them. They are a Quality piece, and the customer service is great.





Saw no improvement in my 60' though. But I did add 4.10's & Nitto drag radials, a clutch and some power.

I just installed UMI ADJ LCAs, PHB and relocations brackets. Let me tell you money well spent.

My UMI adjustable poly/rod LCAs and relocation brackets should be shipping out next week, and a set of bolt-in SFCs to follow within 2 or 3 days. I figured at this point, since the car doesn't have SFCs and isn't lowered, an adjustable PHR would be a bit of a waste.

They're a little backed up due to holiday orders, but I think the parts will definitely be worth the wait.
