do c/c plates affect ride quality?

It will affect your ride quality just a little, but it is mostly just added noise. The stock Camber plates have a huge rubber bushing your strut mounts to, this eliminates a ton of road noise, but it also gives when cornering hard which causes you to loose your alignment in hard corners. The aftermarket c/c plates have metal spherical bushings, these are very noisy, but give you excellent alignment and hold it tight even in hard corners. The downfall is when you hit a bump instead of the rubber deflecting, you have a metal ball inside a pocket swiveling, which makes a clunking sound sometimes and you can hear all of the road noise from your tires and suspension because the rubber isolates it from the factory, but the aftermarket ones bolt directly to the chassis with no rubber bushings, so you feel and hear everything. It is normal though. If you start hearing some strange sounds after installing them don't worry. All that noise is there from the start, you can just hear it now.

I have Pro3i C/C plates and don't get any additional noise from them?

caster/camber plates are a great thing to install on any mustang weither its stock height or not.. as was said in an earlier post.. the rubber bushing isolates.. when going hard into a corner, meaning you lose your alignment in the corner.. the griggs cc plates i run on the notch are louder then stock.. but so is the whole suspension.. as for the fox struts and shocks on a newer stang you are correct.. on a lowered newer stang.. fox struts and shocks are the way to go.

Can the stock CC plates be adjusted? or do I have to buy aftermarket plates?

The rivets can be drilled out, but it doesn't offer much adjustment. The place I got my car aligned drilled the rivets out and realigned the car but it still isn't right so I bought a set of Pro3i plates. If you're only lowered 1.25" or something it might work, if you are lower though you will probably need aftermarket plates.

thanks,
I have the Eibach prokit springs. I can swear that my buddy still has stock cc plates and got his adjusted.

Anybody else know if you can adjust stock cc plates?
