I am considering putting LCA Relocation Brackets on my 2005 GT. I am completely stock, and I wanted to lessen my wheel hop. I do not track my car. My main question is weither or not I need to weld in the LCA Relocation brackets ? Some places say to weld all of them in, some say it is only necessary for track use. (The kit im looking at is bolt on)

I didn't weld mine, I installed Whiteline brand. Everyone seems to have different opinions on this topic.

didnt weld mine either

What you need to try first is LCAs with firmer bushings without relo brackets. In many cases that's enough.

I'd weld any relo brackets if they were mine, for the peace of mind if nothing else, and leave the bolts in. Pretty much a no-brainer when you've got your own welding equipment, and these things aren't exactly convenient to inspect on a regular basis like you should be doing if they're only bolted.

If you don't run it hard or track it welding is not an absolute necessity. However, it is suggested regardless. I have mine welded but I hit the drag strip every now and then so i didn't want that to be the weak link in my suspension when launching.
