LCA relocation Brackets - Weld in or Bolt In, Which is better & why do I need them?
I've been wondering for some time what these actually do for our cars? I've lowered mine 1.5" or so using Hotckiss lowering springs and to be honest, haven't noticed any real ride difference other than the springs are stiffer and the car is lower. How will LCA relocation brackets affect my ride? What is the difference between weld vs. bolt-in, which is better/stronger, and how do I determine where to then bolt the LCA's to it? Is there a formula or gauge or the like to tell me?
I'm pretty good mechanically but suspension (along with engine internals) is beyond my realm of understanding. Trying to learn more, but if anyone could give me the low-down I'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Nobody needs LCARBs until they are experiencing wheel hop issues on launches. For just a Daily Driver? Save your $$.
