Since lowering the car, the rear suspension geometry has been off. Traction has decreased, and I have massive wheel hop. To fix almost all of this, I needed to relocate my lower control arm mounting position on the axle. After plenty of research I decided on the BMR lower control arm relocation brackets. These can be used simply bolted in, but are much stronger when welded on, so that is what I have done.

Grinding away some powdercoating to weld on and the axle too:

Post-surgery, sprayed some silver paint over the welds to keep it from rusting:

Yeah, I had to use the camber bolts. There negative camber was pretty bad, camber bolts on full positive set it back to 0 degrees.
