(as otherwise one would need to move rather LCA inner pivoting point at subframe to keep angle, no?), and of course diff risers to also retain axle angles/reduce wear on CV joints?
It's both for shock travel and for LCA angle.

Some kits are adjustable, others are not. Kits like the Whiteline and SPL are adjustable with shims, and in theory, is weaker than a drop knuckle which has much more strength in the area. Drop knuckles are not adjustable, but most of them are set to a reasonable height expected of a car that's lowered.
