Default Relocation bracket setting?

Going to lower the car with the eibach pro kit, getting together all the necesary suspenssion parts now. What position do you recomend mounting the LCA's? The lowest setting on the relocation bracket?

Thanks

I have mine on the lowest setting. I guess for comfort, you chould have them in the regular hole for daily driving. It's a pretty tight fit and would rather just leave it in the track setting. I have the D-specs and have them set on soft side anyway. I didn't noticed any significant ride change after installing them. I still need to get them welded but haven't had time.

Johnnie,

You need to put the LCA's in the LCA relocation bracket hole that makes your LCA's parallel to the ground or very slightly pointing up toward the rear of the car. If you use the lowest hole you will create more launch traction but inadertently cause the car to have excessive roll oversteer whichmakes the car nasty handling when pushed hard. The car will tend to have extreme oversteer inhigh speed turns and in fast transitions left to right or right to left if you set the LCA's in the lowest locating hole.

Cheers/Chip
