Default Best LCA

I've scrubbed the threads and am going to replace my LCA's on my 06GT. A trip to Lowes is in order this morning but they dont open for an hour so I can pick up that tool that measures the pinion angle. I have Roush rear lowering springs on it from about 2 weeks ago but havent put hardly any miles on it since which I am now reading is probably a good thing. If the angle is -2 plus or minus0.75 degreesI will go with non adjustable LCA's. If it is out of that range I will buy BMR adjustables to correct the deflection within spec.

Questions are what is the best non-adj LCA out there and where to get the best price?

Last question is if I go with the BMR adjustables, where would I get the best price? I have looked on the forums and nobody is selling theirs and they arent on ebay thatI found.

Cheers!

i was told by someone who already did the LCA install to go get the digital tool from sears because it is easier to read since your only doing 1.5 degrees

Digital tool FTW, but it's really expensive for something you aren't going to use much.

I have Spohn suspension products and my installer was VERY impressed with their quality.

BMR, and Lethal Performance is a good place to get them! Great customer service.

By the way, if you get a digital angle finder, get a good one, because a cheapo one is likely to be sketchier than a cheap analog one.

i have the bmr adj lca's, they r great but, for changing your pinion angle is more of the uca job, lca's r for centering your axle, they all work in conjunction, b4 getting fully adjustables all around KNOW your suspension geometry if not u will not like the results

Ahh....... What? Are you sure?? I thought you could adjust you pinion angle with either upper or lower and the panhard bar was for centering your axle..
