NON adjustable lcas... plug n play?

so if you install a NON adjustable lower control arm, say BMRs rod/poly combo, or just poly/poly combo, would you need to adjust pinion angle still? or is it just a slap em in and go? didnt know if you would need an adjustable upper to counter the install, or if the aftermarket does a good enough job measuring the damn pieces so the pinion and driveshaft angles dont move.

Well i dont have the BMR ones but i have the STEEDA ones and they are non-adjustable and i put them in and it was fine so i guess those would be the same as well.

so you didnt need adjustable upper to counteract new part? no clinging, whirring? did you measure before/after to see? or does it just work?

No i didnt need to adjust anything, got no funny noises either. i did lay the stock and steeda ones side by side and they seem to be the same

I did the BMR non-adjustable LCAs and relocation brackets. I did not measure things, but I would assume that the increased distance to reach to the bracket induced some pinion angle changes (for the worse). I have not heard any noise. I also have not noticed any improvement in traction with my useless 235 P-zeros. But that is a tire issue.
