you can put them on later. the reason you hear that is alot of people like to get them welded at the same time when they are getting the sfc's done, since alot of people might not have a welder and only want to pay once to get everything done.

If you haven't installed lowering springs yet you probably don't need LCA relocation brackets yet. If you are experiencing bad wheel hop on hard accelleration however, this is really hard on the driveline. Just be easy with the right foot until you can afford to get them and have them installed.

SO do you have to Reweld the end or is it that you have to weld the LCA on top of whats already been welded?

you bolt the top of the bracket to where the lca's use to mount on the rear end and then you weld the top and sides to the rear end. and then use the holes in the new brackets to mount the lca's back on.
