I have seen a couple of them for sale recently prompting me to check the angle of my Freedom Racing LCA's; they were slightly pointing up at the trunk of the car so I bought a set of the Whitleline relo brackets and installed them today.

I was very impressed with the build/"beefyness" of them, installed the passenger side first as per the directions; the directions tell you that you should have 2 gold/yellow bolts and 2 silver bolts but I had 4 gold/yellow ones; in talking with Jason from Hypermotive Whiteline had experienced some issues with the silver ones so all the kits get 4 gold ones. The brackets are not marked L/R or D/Pand the pictures really don't help but it was not hard to figure out.

Moved onto the drivers side and it was a little more involved as you had to remove the pan hard bar bolt to slide the bracket in and it orients its self toward the rear of car but it was not hard to figure out.

You will need a 22mm socket for this job as the stock LCA rear bolts are replaced by new bolts/nuts from WL. This is also a good time to remove the weights from the axle if you have not already done so.

As a BTW...if you happen to strip out the whiteline RSB bottom bolt and you need to replace it the size is M10-1.50x60mm and the nylon lock nut is a M10-1.50.....:mad2::rant:....not that you need to mess with the RSB for this but I was trying to chase down a strange noise from my rear end.

Ok so I'm confused... Are you happy with them or not? The first part of your post sounds like you like them but the end of your post sounds like your not happy..

Have not driven the car yet as it is raining; I am very happy with them, not happy with myself for stripping a RSB bolt.

When I was pricing my suspension mods, hardly anybody mentions LCA relocation brackets. I need all the help with traction I can get and am glad I added them.

Good choice! Everyone want to put power to the engine but neglect the suspension part....you can have 1000hp but if the car can't hook you will get beat by everyone.

Those looks sweet! You are going to notice a huge difference, no more rear end squatting to the deck when you punch it.
