Does Lowering the Car Change the Pinion Angle or Anything Else Back There??

[QUOTE="ShelbyGT5HUN, post: 15037696, member: 161356"] SC thanks for the tip. I checked tonight, and my LCAs point at least an inch to 1.5" HIGHER in the back, compared to the front, just as you said. This is starting to make a little sense now as to why this car has NO traction. It has always felt like not enough weight was getting transferred to the rear tires, and that it would probably hook a lot better with 300 pounds of sand in the back, no joke. I am going to look into relocation brackets. Previous owner installed aftermarket LCAs and BMR adjustable panhard bar. I think the brackets will help a lot. To get the angle my LCAs are now, as the car sits parked, they are probably like yours under full launch. That's why I'm spinning third, with a pulley and tune, at 80mph! What do you recommend for springs and shocks? I like cruising fast on the open highway, and accelerating hard from a dig, but would value handling curves as more important than all out optimization for drag use. [/QUOTE]
