I thought springs required C/C plates?

Well the FRPP B and C springs only drop the car about 1.25 inches in front and around .75" in the rear. The plates aren't really needed, but if you are driving several thousand miles a year I would install them. I installed some after my springs just b/c I liked the look of the plates.

Most mustangs are set up from the factory with about 0 degrees of camber. When you lower the car the negative camber will increase, usually to around 1 degree with a 1.5" drop, which is what Maximum Motorsports recommends for a performance street setting anyway. The toe is the most critical thing. When you lower the car the tires will toe OUT. It is a good idea to take the car somewhere to have the toe checked after a spring install. Too much toe in or out will quickly wear the tires.

So the C/C plates only adjust caster & camber, right? How do you adjust toe w/ the new springs? Alignment shop?

Yes the CC plates do only what their name implies. The toe is adjusted with the tie rod ends. I did mine myself but I have the equipment. You can also just use a tape measure if you are very careful and precise. My car is toe IN 3/32", which is the distance between these two Is....I I. So you must be very precise!
