Does this mess with tire fitment

What are the LCAs and how does relocating them help mitigate wheel hop?

Black 5.0 · January 30th, 2012, 11:26 PM

LCA=Lower Control Arms our stock lcas are stamped so there not very strong by replacing those with a stronger lca you eliminate some of the wheel hop that these cars have then by getting the brackets to relocate them helps the car to squat more. Somebody can correct me if i'm wrong on any of that

You have to have the relocation brackets if the car is lowered to help find that 'center' when the car launches. This can further be adjusted with an adjustable Upper Control Arm, but they can be a pain in the ass. You'd also have to buy a bracket for it.

What else is there that you can do to mitigate wheel hop? Just springs, dampeners, and the lca brackets?

Normally, wheel hop is practically eliminated with LCA's... Don't confuse traction with wheel hop. They're two very different things.
