Does anyone have any suggestions on which brand of caster camber plates that I should go with for my 97 cobra? Should I get 3 bolt or 4 bolt? UPR, Steeda, Maximum Motorsports etc. ?

While I am older and less prone to like a lot of noise, I did not like the Steeda 4-bolts I installed and took them off. They transmit too much road noise for my liking. If I had to do it over again, I'd go with Hotchkis as theirs use a urethane bushing rather than metal-to-metal bearings. That's just my opinion and experience. Others don't mind the noise transmitted with the metal bearing CC plates.

I like maximum motorsports caster camber plates myself and run them on my cobra. I have installed many other brand caster camber plates and found the maximum motorsports to be the best quality and easiest to align.

Not meaning to sound that I can't make a mistake, but I've been working on cars for 40 years, so, yeah, they were correctly installed. It's pretty much a no-brainer. I guess the tire tread noise transmitted too much for my liking.

Like I said, being older, I like like the creature comforts a little more than I used to. I replaced the stock bushings with polyureathane and that increased the stiffness without the noise.

Get the MM cc plates - they are by far the best.
