LCARB needed for 1" drop springs?
Should I get lower control arm relocation brackets if I plan on going with the Eibach sport line springs. They drop the car 1'' and I dunno if I should use the brackets to correct the change in suspesion geometry.

sportlines go further down than 1 inch, thats the prokit.
anyway heres the info straight from spohn..

Repositions your instant center by lowering your control arm angle for increased traction and anti-squat. Lowers rear of control arm up to 3". This product is a must for lowered vehicles to correct your suspension geometry. Lowering your vehicle alters the LCA angle putting the rear of the LCA higher than the front of the LCA, this causes massive wheel hop and traction loss.
NON-LOWERED vehicles will also see a dramatic increase in traction by lowering the rearward angle of the LCA with our relocation brackets. The lower mount holes are placed in the arc pattern of the OEM length LCA. Therefore allowing a non-lowered F-Body to drop the rear LCA angle and NOT require a longer than OEM LCA. All geometry is correctly maintained. The anti-squat performance is providing most users with a full .10 or better 60' reduction!
Brackets are Laser-Cut from 3/16" cold rolled steel using state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technology for precision tolerances. Must be welded into place. Hardware is included. Since the brackets must be welded in place, we ship them bare. Weld in LCA Relocation Brackets are the only SAFE and EFFECTIVE way to install them.
Note: For installation on stock rear or Strange Engineering 12 bolt rear. If you have a Moser Engineering 12 bolt or Ford 9" rear, use our Part # 210-M relocation brackets.
