Install and results of LCARBS
I installed the lower control arm relocation brackets yesterday and I boxed the arms as well. Car feels good. I put the control arm in the 2nd hole(not the bottom one) just to see if there is a difference.
I did notice that I can brake-rev the car a little higher now. So, I should be able to get a better 60ft time.
Must be b/c the arms are firmer now and won't spin the wheels.
Will take the car to the track on Sept.12 and I will post results.

I am getting my brackets welded in place on monday and am trying to decide which hole to put the lca in. Hopefully someone that has the brackets will chime in and shed some light on the subject for us.
LB9GTA...how high can you brake-stall to now? I am currently able to go to about 1350.

I used to brake-rev to about 1200 and now I can go to 13-1400.
As for the adjustment holes, I am in the middle and I will try the bottom hole and find out the diff.
The best way is at the track and I will find out on sept.12. what my 60ft's are.

We normally install all on the third setting, if you get brake hop you might want to keep it in the middle setting.
All lowered cars, we use and leave them on the third setting as well, seems to be perfect for a appox. 1.5" drop.
Hope that helps
