    Does anyone know if you need the relocating brackets when installing the lower control arms?

    I am probably going with the Metco's or the BMR's. BMR sells the brackets but i dont see the Metco's.

    Relocation brackets are used to relocate the lower control arms back to their factory angle if a car is lowered. These should be used in conjunction with an adjustable upper control arm or UCA to restore the pinion angle to its proper angle.

    For general street use not really. For the best 60' times possible at the dragstrip yes.
