hey guys!
would it be wise for me to spend the extra money on the adj. Spohn LCAs when i get them? or are the regular good enough?
i have prokit and im going to be getting the LCA relocation brackets as well. will i really need to adjust the LCAs?
thanks!

 

most people should be fine without the adjustment.

but there are a couple of good reasons to get adjustables.

1) spohn does not offer any of his arms with a spherical bearing that are non adjustable. the poly/spherical combo arms are a great choice, but only come adjustable.

2) you can have a rear aligment done and make toe corrections.

 

how annoying are the spherical ends on the poly/spherical combo? ive heard the spherical ends transmit lots of noise. i was thinking that id get the non adj. with the poly bushings on both sides. but ill see what y'all have to say.

 

IMHO they are not bad at all, but my car is loud, spherical strut mounts, lots of solid bushings, it shakes rattles and rolls just the way i like it.

in reality it won't be much diffrent then poly poly. if you put the poly side on the body side mount. then alot of the noise should be disapated by the poly bushing. almost as much as having 2 poly bushings.

the gains are much greater with a spherical bearing, you eleminate the bind factor of 2 poly bushings.

 

I have the Spohn non-adjustable rear LCA's and I am happly with them. Now if relocating brackets are in your plans, then the adjustable ones should be your choice. Do a search on this subject.

 

relocation brackets do not effect the lca lenght needed (well with spohns brackets they do by a fraction of an inch, since his holes are drilled on a 9" radius, and the lca's are 19.5" radius) but it is should not be a concern.

 

A poly/rod end combo is what you want, and that's only available as adjustable from Spohn. Forget the non-adj poly/polys. Rod/rod is the best, but its kind of clattery. The poly end really quiets things up.
