What Are the Purposes for LCA Relocation Brackets?

[Dan12GT]

I'm looking to do rear LCAs and the UCA real soon. Was wonder what the purpose is of people getting the relocation brackets installed. It seems that most people who get them have lowered vehicles (unsure of what purpose it serves). Just curious if it will be required when doing the LCAs. From what I have found it doesn't appear so but wanted to make sure.

it keeps the lca level when you lowered your car

sheesh... So many things to do when lowering the car.

Straight from the BMR website, has nothing to do with keeping the LCA's level -

Your vehicle's "instant center" determines it's ability to transfer weight upon acceleration for better traction. Move the instant center of your vehicle by changing your control arm angle with BMR Suspension lower control arm relocation brackets. These control arm brackets will allow you to tune in the instant center of your chassis, an essential for racing or lowered vehicles

This^^

In a quick:

If you draw an imaginary lines forward following the control arms, the intersection point will be your instant center. In most cases it will almost always be in front of the vehicle. On a stock setup your instant center will be located below your anti squat line. By adding the relocation brackets, this changes your instant center above the anti squat line thus helping plant the rear tires

The angle in degrees, in reference to the ground.
