Default NON adjustable lcas.. plug n playt?

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.

LCA's shoudn't affect pinion angle unles you use adjustable. Lowering the car will.

Exactly. The aftermarket ones are a drop-in replacement.

If you buy adjustable LCAs you are buying them BECAUSE you want the ability to adjust your pinion angle. For example, if you lowered your car or you changed your driveshaft. Then you need the adjustable ones.

If you're not lowering your car and you're not fooling with the driveshaft, then get the solid ones. They drop right in.
