Caster Camber Plates, 2005-2014 Mustang (Base Kit for 2.5" coil-overs)

Mm5CC-7 is our base caster camber plate for installation of an aftermarket adjustable ride-height coil-over kit. Designed for use with a standard coil-over spring and matching upper spring perch, it does not fit stock or direct replacement springs. While the most popular coil-over springs are 2.5" in diameter, the Mm5CC-7 will fit other coil-over spring diameters as long as the matching upper spring perch is in use.

While in stock form, 2005-14 Mustang camber and caster are non-adjustable, this innovative Maximum Motorsports product lets you align your Mustang's front tires correctly by allowing adjustment of both caster and camber. Especially well-suited for lowered Mustangs.

Not included

Better by design
Maximum Motorsports invented the double-adjustable caster camber plate for Mustangs in 1993. That innovation pioneered the separate and independent adjustment of caster and camber for Mustangs.

Why do I need these MM Caster Camber plates?

• Mm5CC-7 is the base caster camber plate for installation of an aftermarket adjustable ride-height coil-over kit. Those aftermarket struts usually use standard coil-over-style springs (2.5" is typical), not stock or direct replacement springs. To attach a strut and a standard coil-over spring to the caster-camber plate, you'll need a separate installation kit designed for specific struts and coil-over kits.
• Lowering your Mustang will cause the top of the front tires to "lean in" toward the center of the car (increased negative camber). That may cause uneven tire wear.
• You can easily correct excessive negative camber with MM Caster Camber Plates. The product will work well even on an S197 Mustang lowered as much as 2.5 in.
• MM Caster Camber Plates allow front alignment adjustment for improved performance. Increased negative camber provides more cornering grip.

Camber Adjustment

• Because lowering your daily-driven Mustang can cause too much negative camber, you'll want to be able to adjust it back to factory specifications to maintain good tire wear.
• Camber may be adjusted to a much more negative setting to increase front grip when cornering.

Caster Adjustment
MM Caster Camber Plates provide a small range of adjustment for caster, which is otherwise not adjustable. While the S197 Mustang chassis was designed with a very suitable amount of positive caster for performance driving, it can benefit from fine-tuning the adjustment to reduce the ill effects of production tolerances.

Construction

• Main plate is laser-cut from high-grade alloy steel, not mild steel. This increased strength greatly reduces the possibility of bending.
• MM-designed spherical bearing is custom-made in the USA.
• Durable black powdercoat finish is standard.
