$65 from Spohn, i have some but havent got them welded on yet, i hear they are the best mod for improved traction especially if your car is lowered.

The stock LCA brackets are welded to the axle. It is a better idea to go with the welded ones because of the amount of force that is applied to these brackets. The bolt on one will probably be fine if you re-torque them every so often.

If you are going to change axles, i would just go with the bolt on ones, then when you install the new axle, bolt the brackets on and see if they can also be welded into place.

Spohn relocation brackets $65

Welded is better.

I'm going with the BMR bolt-ons for two reasons:

1) the added brace connection to the shock mount makes for easier alignment positioning when installing.

2) the added brace connection to the shock mount also strengthens the shock mount. I like this bacause I'm installing coilovers and these mounts will now support the rear weight of the car.

I did weld them into place even though they are bolt-ons because of safety reasons.
