RE: Can someone explaing LCA etc?
I have the J&M HotPart LCA and it is great. I saw an improvement in my 60' times and no wheel hop. The car handles better also. I did not get the relocation brackets, J&M said if the car isn't lowered I didn't need them.

I'd go with BMR
but from looking at that site it looks like red/black are just color choices and looks like they have non-adjustable only
they seem to have adj-panhard though
the relocation bracket is only for if your lowered (doesn't mater which manufacturer)

If I were you to eleminate wheel hop
the springs lower it so
BMR adj-LCA
Relocation bracket (its lowered)
BMR non-adj-UCA
nowI would do it in stages
1st how much is it lowered <1" (adj-LCA) 1<x<2 (Bracket and Adj-LCA) 2<" (Adj-LCA, Bracket, UCA)
2nd add the first part adj-LCA and see how it improves the hop or eleminates hop (if hop is gone then you can stop here is you want)
3rd if hop persists add the bracket
4th if hop still persists contact "crazy AL" hes an expert it seems adding the UCA might do it but at this point contacting an expert is a good idea
the panhard corrects axel center not hop (when you lower the axel shifts (to the driver side I think) and an adj-panhard you can recenter)
the bracket is for if your lowered (I don't know how much the rear springs lower) when you lower the LCA can go past the level pointand then be a problem (and thats what the bracket fixes)
so maybe an expert can come in and correct me

RE: Can someone explaing LCA etc?
BTW although I don't plan on lowering I do plan ton the following
BMR adj-LCA
BMR UCA
watts llink (if money permits)
these are the suspension mods I plan but first I'll get a C&L cai
at the moment money is tight so I'm looking for another job (if I was still at 40hours a week I'd already have all this and more)
