Relocation Bracketts- How?

I purchased a set of Eibach Pro-kit 1.3" lowering springs and the
relocation bracketts, for my 95 Z28 LT1.
Since I am not mechanically inclined, I asked the Chev. Dealer what the cost would be to install. Did not get a precise answer, and some concern about their competence.
What is involved in welding the brackets, and how long should it take a
competent mechanic to do the job.....Thanks



1995 Z28 LT1 Red/Black T-top, too much to list.

Re: Relocation Bracketts- How?

Where did you buy the brackets from? Didn't they come with installation instructions?
Maybe this will help: http://www.bmrfabrication.com/instructions/cab001.htm

Weld-in or bolt-in?

I doubt the average "Chev. dealer" would have the slightest idea what an "LCA relocaton bracket" even is.

Really shouldn't take more than 15-20 minutes per side. If they are "bolt-in", you should be able to do it yourself. Its the welding part that is the problem. Any competent welder should be able to take care of that.

Exhaust shops have the tools and skills to weld them in place.

Re: Relocation Bracketts- How?

Sorry "BUD M" to answer your question. I ordered/rec'd them from "Fasttoys.net"
and "NO" there were no instructions in the box. I will give them a call Monday.

Thanks.
