The traction brackets will affect the diff pinion angle! due to the ae86 having a shorter top arm as you lower the car it starts to pivot around the shorter top arm, this pushes the diff back andlowers the diff pinion, when fitting traction brackets you will have to push the diff forward which then lifts the pinion angle. technically yes.... but he has adjustable lower arms.. and anyone fitting these brackets would have adjustable lower arms... and you adjust them to set the pinion angle... what i meant was that the brackets doe not SET the pinion angle.. the TRAILING ARMS do that job... no-one in their right mind would just brackets in there without resetting the pinion angle... the suspension geometry gets complex when you start to push the arms past horizontal, and needs a decent look to determine what will happen with various ride heights and axle wind-up etc etc... as it all comes down to exactly how far it is lowered... and exactly what angles occur for each arm during the full expected suspension travel [Report message to a moderator]
