oldcorollas I too don't want a sh&tfight, I actually think the problem here is the difference between traction brackets, the ones I have have many different holes to put the lower arms into and they are on a slight arc, so If I lower my car and the diff pinion starts to tilt down, I can select from the many holes the one required to get the pinion angle correct, thus I don't need adj lower arms(even though I have them, but the main reason for getting these was fine tuning the rear end alignment and for the rod ends), my traction brackets are not like the whiteline one hole only type! So basically by fitting my traction brackets I have restord my pinion angle and I can use non adj to do this if I want(infact for many years I ran non adj arms and pinion angle was corrrect), by longer upper arms I mean I am running the same length arms top and bottom, I no longer have the short top arms, on a lowered car the shorter top arms exagerate the pinion anlge change as the car is lowered. When I said I didn't want to wind out my arms that much, not beacuase they are too short, so they don't run out of thread!
Also your last comment I'm saying that once the car is lowered and the pinion angle has changed(nose down) fitting my traction brackets with the standard arms DID greatly change the pinion angle, back to original, so I don't see where the contradiction is??? also I'm not sure how you worked out my new pinion angle was weird???? if the car is lowered and the nose points down then I fit traction brackets with standard arms(which I did for many years) and the pinion angle is lifted back to stock.....wheres the weird angle??? yes they are bodgy but I suppose they are a bolt on fix to correcting the pinion angle without having to go to adj arms.I fitted same length top and bottom so I don't have two arms going through different arcs!
