    Default LCA Relocation brackets needed?

    I was wondering if i needed them. My car sits high in the rear. I know they are a must for lowered cars BUT is there a angle that is ideal? If so i could measure the angle now and see if i actually need them. Im going to buy sfc's here soon and if i need them ill get them then. Also are weldins the only was to go for safety?

    If you're not lowered, they aren't a requirement. But you can still gain some benefit from them, I've heard to the relo brackets refered to as anti squat brackets, and I can say that when my car was still stock ride height, the relocation brackets made a huge difference for the better. I'd pick up a set, the weld ins are like 50 bucks and the bolt in ones are a little more, at least the last time I looked anyways.

    The general consensus is that you should run them if you are lowered. I have them on a 0.5-0.75" drop (Bilstein Level II SS Suspension)

    My 4x4 ta felt a big difference with the relocators. I also did sfcs but I think the majority is the lcars. All other suspension is stock. Don't know about your pinion angle query tho.
