Relocation brackets are needed when the car has been lowered.

 

+1

 

i dont have them on mine, i have the steeda RSB, LCA, Adj UCA and FRPP springs and struts/shocks. Forgive me for asking but what would you need the brackets for on street app cars?

 

They reduce wheel hop, if you have it. I used to have wheel hop on the stock suspension. Now with the D-Specs and Steeda Sport springs, no hop.

 

"NEED" is a strong word, lol.


Steeda,
Lower Trailing Arm Relocation Brackets are designed to let you adjust the location of the rear mounting point of the lower trailing arm allowing you to fine tune the instant center geometry of your Mustang.

Improving the instant center geometry will increase traction for better 60ft times and better acceleration out of a corner on the road course.

CHE,
Anti-Squat Brackets for the 2005-Current Mustang change the rear lower control arm geomtry. This change in geometry alters the Instant Center of the suspension pickup points reducing the tendancy for the rear of the vehicle to "squat" during hard launches. The lifting action of the control arms on the vehicle chassis firmly plants the tires to the track allowing greatly improved launches and 60ft times.


The really dont effect the wheel hop, thats the job of the replacement UCA and LCA's

 

ahh, once i put the lca's on with the uca my hop was gone. Once i put them in man it felt like a diffrent car all the power was on the ground.

 

Can't go wrong with BMR or steeda suspension parts. I had the adjustable bmr control arms and they were awesome.

 

For control arms you can't go wrong with Metco IMO

 

CrazyAl wrote a really good piece on LCA/UCa, relocation brackets and adjusting the pinion angle. It might clear up some of your questions.
