Imay repalce the LCAs I have with a spherical bushing at one end. My bushing and pads are deforming from hard launches.

Not just the track.

The upper adjustable is all you will need to correct the pinion angle from when the car was lowered.

I think the J&M LCA with the poly-ball end can make a big difference any time your cornering hard and hit a bump. The standard poly ends can make the car real darty under those conditions due to the huge twisting forces on the arms which have the effect of increasing spring rate or even limiting suspension travel. The poly-ball allows the suspension to behave as stock with regards to torsion or twisting forces on the LCA.
