Mounting a Quick performance 9" Ford rear on 87 Camaro
The mounting for the control arms on the axle has 4 hole , 4 mounting points, which one do I use for a stock configuration and what are the 4 different mountings for.
Re: Mounting a Quick performance 9" Ford rear on 87 Camaro
Those are like LCA relocation brackets that you could apply to a stock rear.
Best place to start is, where the rear end of the LCAs is JUST SLIGHTLY below the front (chassis) end. Something in the range of ½ to ¾" would be a great start point.
What you'll find is, if the rear (axle) bolt is too high, the car will wheel-hop ruthlessly, like stock, under acceleration. When the bolt is too low, it will hook up like pulling your teeth out under acceleration, but will wheel-hop unbelievably under braking (an OBVIOUS safety / life preservation malfunction). Ideal is where both are smooth and quiet, and present no problems.

450+- and up to 250 shot . So after I hook up the shocks ,track bar,torque arm, stabilizer bar, with all that connected, can I change the mounting point of the LCA on the relocation bracket

yeah you can change it with everything else connected. I would do one side at a time though so the rear doesnt move too much on you.
