I hear about how lca's help with traction and all so i was wondering what lca's are the best. Also do i need the relocation brackets? Basically, i dont know much about suspension (more of an engine guy) so any help would be much apreciated. thanx

Just I posted in the relocation thread, is the car for the drags, or taking corners?

mainly for drag but taking corners is fun too... what im looking for is good launch times for drag and i hear lca's can help with traction

The least expensive units will be ones with poly bushings, which are acceptable for drag purposes. The problem is that they will bind when taking turns. The best setup for all purposes is to have rod ends on both sides. Having LCAs with quality rod ends is going to cost more than poly bushing LCAs, though.

You pretty much have to weigh the pros and cons of both.

Check these out, I just found them surfing around on the web and for the most part They are pretty simple to make but you get all of the High Performance ability of a Spherical Rod end LCAs but for a much lower cost. Im gonna give them a try this winter and see how it turns out.

Yep, i didnt notice till later that spherical joints on the end can be adjusted in and out, I thought that they screwed all the way in, but i was wrong, that makes both the LCAs and PHR Double Adjustable . Which for the price is awesom!!!
