Directions for adjusting adjustable LCA and PHB
I'm getting a set of adjustable LCAs and an adjustable PHB. Are there any instructions and rules of thumb I should follow when setting the length on them? My car is stock height.

I think you should leave them like your stock ones(same length) until you lower it. I'm planning on lowering my car with the Pro kit. From everything I've read you need the adjustable PHB to center the axle and relocation brackets for the LCA's to get any traction once it's lowered. However, I'm a newbie at suspension set ups so get some more opinions.

That's what I was planning on doing. Although I'd like to make sure that my rear is properly centered, I've seen a couple of posts saying that even with stock height their rear wasn't centered.

Don't take this as an informed opinion,
but I don't know that you want the rear
exactly centered. Because the Panhard
linkage will force the axle leftward on
any squat, or pavement kick-up, you need
to make sure that nowhere in the travel
do you get wheel - to - housing scrub.
The closest approach will not be in the
normal sitting position (unless you're
way dropped).
So if you set up centered, you will have a
left side gap that narrows with travel.
Probably want to bias for a little bit of
extra left side room if there's any tire
interference problem, but if not, go centered
for balance.
Contains navelward-looking statements not to
be relied upon.
