I am getting closer to my event this weekend, I have ordered all UMI roto joints for the rear. Along with lca relocation brackets.

The car has Spohn poly stuff back there now.....

The car has
Koni SA on rear, da on front.
Strano springs
1 le front bar, stock rear bar
Poly swaybar end links
275-40 all around.

I read where a guy did what I am about to do and it caused a push, car feels ok now but I'm a greenhorn.

The lcas in the rear are running downhill pretty bad.

Am I about to mess up?

Edit, opinions on initial shock settings for street tires ? All of them are set full soft as of now.y

I would think that with the LCAs pointing downward toward the front would cause the car to understeer. _Weld_ the LCA relocation brackets on, and set the LCAs to level, and the car should handle more neutrally.
