Default Which setting to use on lca relo brackets?

I got a case of the wheel hop when i run drag radials at the track so i ordered BMR lca's w/ poly bushings and weld on relocation brackets. Which hole should be used for my car, it is the stock ride heigth and the rest of the suspension is stock. Also i didnt buy their grease or hardware can i reuse my stock hardware and what kind of grease should i get to use?

Are you saying the only thing you bought were the relocation brackets? I was wondering if all I bought were the brackets if I could use the stock LCA's, would that work?

Lower holes for straight line acceleration
You can re-use your stock bolts. I use a lil' white lithium grease on the outsides of the bushings. Some folks use antisieze. Also...I use regular hi-temp wheel bearing grease to lube the bushings.

Yes.....you can use your stock stamped steel POS LCA's if you want but.....why

Also.....if your weld on LCA's aren't located/positioned corectly prior to weld, you may find that your wheels sit further forward in the wheel well than they should.

Suspension should be loaded during LCA mock up, and LCA position checked fo true prior to the weld, or you'll be doing (A)...buying adjustable LCA's, or (B).....cutting off your brand new relo's for a proper install.

There was a thread about weld on LCA's awhile back.....do a search for more info if inclined.
