LCA Relocation Bracket Installed Pics ...Please
Okay I have a 2000 WS6 only suspension stuff done is strut bar (if that counts), sfc (3 point umi), and just installed bolt in rlc brackets.
LCA brackets helped with my traction and fixed my leaning problems (car from rear view leaned to the passenger side-now is level)
Problem is when you look at my car from the side the rear wheels are not centered anymore...is this normal?
They are about 2 inchs from rear and 3 from front if that helps draw a pic.

If the rear was centered before the relocation brackets where installed and now they are not centered the relocation brackets are to blame. If the lower control arms are stock length one or both of the brackets are off a little. If you want to give me a call i will tell you how to straighten out the problem.

He misunderstood me. He needs to loosen up the bolts that attach the relocation brackets, get the control arms to where they can go into the top or bottom hole without moving the rear, then tighten down the brackets. If he has any questions have him give me a call.

Yes adjustable lca's will fix the problem but unless you have an aftermarket rear in the car you should not need adjustable arms to have the wheels centered. Aftermarket rears sometimes don't have the lca brackets in the exact spot that they are in on the factory rear thus the need for adjustable parts. If you have they stock rear in the car then the brackets aren't aligned correctly.

Can't anyone figure out how to test this to see if it's the relocation bracket causing the misalignment?
It's as easy as this, just reinstall the LCA's in the stock bracket hole. If it solves the problem, then it's the bracket. If not then look at something else.
I don't know about BMR but my UMI brackets allow you to put the LCA back in the very same stock untouched original LCA mount, even with the bracket in place. tech support can't figure out to tell the customer this?

Both of the brackets I see allow use of the original bolt that goes to the original mount hole which should not have moved during installation.
