Can Spohn make bolt-in LCA relocation brackets? Has anyone asked him to try??

I really want a set of bolt-in reloc. brackets. Heres why:
#1 I don't have a welder...nor can I borrow one.
#2 I'd like to be able to remove them If I ever sell the car
#3 I'd rather buy from Spohn than BMR
#4 The BMR's are 110$...I know Spohn can make them better/perhaps cheaper!

i'm sure he could make them. i think having a set of bolt on welded on would be good for added strength. i would buy a set if i could get some unfinished bolts-ons. spohn products are great quality.

We won't make them, I don't feel they're safe. They tie in to the lower shock mount, which wasn't designed to take that kind of load. They should be welded in.

There's your answer, from the Man himself.

I am sure you could get a local shop to weld the LCA relocation kit in fairly cheap.

I'm in california man!

Typical shops have a 40$-50$ minimum charge! Not to mention that they need to be welded in appropriately and lined up totally true for them to work.
