Default relocation bracket question

i was wondering if the aftermarket lower control arm relocation brackets replace the stock ones or are they both used? if they are replaced, i assume there is a hole in them for the brake line too?

You use both brackets, but you need to cut the old bracket.....

Hello,

The vehicle does not have relocation brackets from the factory. The relocation brackets you purchase on a add-on that bolt to the rear end and offer lower control arm mounting locations. Please take a look at the link below and reference the picture.

If you have any questions please ask and I am glad to help. Thank you!

well i am glad you replied because i was going to go with umi to match my panhard bar, lca's, subframes, etc. i do have a quick question for you. do you have like a page that shows your torque specs? i need them for my bolt-in 2-point subframe connectors, lca's, and panhard bar as well. i am not sure if the panhard and lca's came with that info but i know my bolt on subframe connectors didn't. thanks again.
