Camber Bolts vs Camber Plates | Which is Right For You?

If you have a lowered Mustang, you probably don't have a way to adjust the front camber. While we offer both here at Steeda, you may not know whether you need a camber bolt or a camber plate, or if you need either in the first place. We'll go over the basics of camber, which S550 Mustangs came with adjustable camber plates from the factory, and which is right for your Mustang.

This answered a question I didn’t originally come here for. I have wheels up front that already hit my coilover. So I was thinking of doing positive camber on the bolt and using the plate to compensate the positive adjustment. That should give me more inside clearance.

[@EVENMETAL]

Great explanation. I have the camber plates up front and the bolts in the rear Thanks to Trent Musser Motorsports in Sonoma!

[@RobZtaco]

Thanks for continuing to put out great info!

[@steedaautosports]

Our pleasure!

I have your camber plates, going 3yrs now of daily driving with the occasional track run and haven't regretted that purchase since. Though, it looks like I might need to get the bolts too since I plan to get those 18x11 wheels up front.
I was given a wheel to try the fitment and it looked uncomfortably close to the strut body in the front (yes, he let me use his spacer too so I'd have a proper scenario). The wheels in question were the Apex EC-7s

excellent video CHRIS!

Does drilling out the tower shock mount have any effect on the factory warranty

[@steedaautosports]

Not directly, no. I would read up on the Magnuson-Moss Act in regard to warranty concerns. -Chris

Chris, great video ! I have a Mach 1 with all the Steeda suspension /IRS parts minus the springs for my HP. I was curious if your design team will be coming out with the IRS differential bushings for the Mach 1? I was told the GT ones do not work with the Mach 1. My car is also procharged making over 700 whp. It also has a mantic clutch Ford FRPP upgraded half shafts and carbon fiber DS.

I believe the mach 1 uses gt350 suspension parts

[@michaeldials9291]

@@shepherd3085 so the differential bushings are probably off the gt350? I know my stock drive shaft is off the 350. They should be fine then to support that supercharger correct?

[@steedaautosports]

Thank you! We have a dedicated kit for GT350 and Mach 1 owners linked below. It omits the different bushing, but provides a similar level of performance added in comparison to the GT kit. This is what I ran on my GT350 that saw plenty of street and competition use. Hope this helps! -Chris

I have a 2022 S550 GT Premium and I want to change the wheels from the standard ones to mach1 Handling package ones, do I need any camber adjustment when changing my wheels since its wider?

[@steedaautosports]

You should be okay as long as you stay at the stock ride height and are running the same size 305 width tire that Mach 1 HP uses. If you do plan to lower in the future, definitely pick up a set of camber plates so you won't run into clearance issues.
