5-door said:Relocation brackets are an ok investment for the novice racer with a mid-10 to mid-12 second car. They can also be useful on cars that are majorly lowered to get the LCA geometry back to a more desirable position. However, that doesn't help the geometry of the UCA, which is just as important.
G-bodies have excellent rear control arm geometry from the factory and if you are more than a novice racer and know some of the basic tips and tricks to make these cars hook, relocation brackets are wasted money and unnecessary weight.
If you read my previous post carefully, you'll see that I basically said the relocation brackets are a waste of money.nawlins-tim said:5-door said:Relocation brackets are an ok investment for the novice racer with a mid-10 to mid-12 second car.

i think Tim was looking to hear more about how to make these cars hook.people like Tim and myself included are less than novices and don't know some of the basic tips and tricks to make these cars hook,but knowing that relocation brackets maybe be wasted money and unnecessary weight for those of us just starting out and not going very fast/hooking well is a good place to start.for instance i was always under the impression that they like some other products out there work better on cars that are on the slower side,once your making so big power not so much.5-door said:If you read my previous post carefully, you'll see that I basically said the relocation brackets are a waste of money.nawlins-tim said:5-door said:Relocation brackets are an ok investment for the novice racer with a mid-10 to mid-12 second car.
