Why you need relocation brackets

Went to the track with the new setup a couple weeks ago and couldn't hook to save my soul. Running MT ET Radials, Spohn TA, Lakewood LCA's and 3500 stall. Best 60 I could get was a 1.79, most were 1.82's and it ran 12.5x's. Went out on Saturday after putting on the relocation brackets and it cut consistent 1.68's and ET picked up .3 and ran 12.24.

U have corrected the rear suspension angle so it puts the power to the ground instead of forcing it to lift up.

From the factory the LCA angle was okay at best, on lowered cars it was horrible.

U just made the power work more efficiently in your favor..

Poke around I belive MrDude1 made a little illustrated post here in the past couple weeks about it.

Has textbook definitions and little videos/illustrations to go with it.

later

I know, I just posted my gains so people could see what kind of improvements there are to be had.
