Who makes the best lca relocation brackets?

No question about it the Global west units are the best. The fit and finish are number one. The only thing bad about them is the price.

I can't see what's so special about the Global West ones that makes them almost twice the price of Spohn's.

I have been e-mailing spohn, but he has not got back to me and It has been weeks now.

Spohn's have nothing to locate them on the axle, so when you install them they can swing back and forth. Global West's have a mounting pad on the inside that locks them to the axle. I made my own based on GW's design.

Ummm, DUH!..

Yer supposed to WELD the Spohn brackets on.

The only ones I've seen that can just be bolted on, and yet still aren't a safety hazard, are the BMR ones. (they do make a weld-on only set.)

The difference is the bolt-on ones have an "ear" that slips on the rear shock mounts for bracing.

Even with these, I'd only use them in mild-modification applications. If yer sportin' big power, WELD that thing on there...

CPCamaro

Just FYI:

This is on the Spohn website, AND on the directions that were in the box my brackets came in...

"Must be welded into place. All Grade 8 hardware is included. Since the brackets must be welded in place, we ship them bare. Welding in LCA Relocation Brackets are the only SAFE and EFFECTIVE way to install them."

82camaro

Absolutely must be welded for safety. As long as the material is strong enough, the brand doesn't matter.

Well no kidding they have to be welded. But I said "when you install them", meaning you put them into place before you weld them, how do you know if you have them in the right place before you start welding?

I've been using the BMR bolt on lca brackets now for a while, and they have been holding up against my 406 and me beatin on it.

Custom EFI Intake Setup

They are lazer cut and fit snuggly along the original mounts on the rear-end. Also, the holes are drilled so you can use stock length LCA's. Since this is the case, before you tighten the bolts when you bolt them on, just swing up the LCA, and it lines up perfectly. The GW's are nice, but at their price, I feel like Spohn are a better value and will yeild the same results.
