    In my quest to always find & think of a way to improve my cars traction, was wondering if there's a way to get my lower control arms more level. Right now with my moog 5379 springs my lower arms are a bit higher at the fwd mount. As I understand at this fwd location if I could some how get the control arm down and level this will improve traction a bit. Are there any adapters or anything other to help with this ? I see plenty of things available for changing the rear location of the control arm ( no hop bars & such ) but nothing for the fwd location. Thx .

    Check with ABC performance I think he offers a front drop bracket,...but it mostly be a welding and fab situation but yes get that bar level will help

    On my 12 bolt axle there was enough room at the rear mount location to drill a new hole above the existing mount hole on the rear axle to raise the rear of the lower control arm.

    That's a great idea. I have a 10 bolt. I'll check it out. Every little bit helps.

    Searching around on the internet. Ton of info on how to lower the rear of your lower trailing arms. IE drop brackets. Not much on lowering the front part of your lower control arms to get them level. Maybe I'm not that good at searching around.
