Several years ago I bought a set of D&D Motorsports caster camber plates off of a buddy. I'm just now installing them, and the bolt pattern seems to be too big? The distance from the side where two bolts are, to the side where one bolt is, seems to be about 1/4 in or so too long? I'm wondering if these were possibly for a 79-89 instead of 90-93? I'm pretty sure the 79-89 ones have the two holes on one side offset from each other. These are straight across. My car is a 91 Mustang GT.

Can I drill out the single hole to make them fit without any problems?

Here's a couple of pics. These are showing the caster camber plate bolts, compared to the stock bracket that is on top of the shock tower, just for comparison.





Here's a couple pics of the plates themselves.





Thanks in advance for any help!!!

I can't remember for sure, but I think I had to waller out one of the bolt holes for my MM CC plates.

Edit: Yes I did. MM instructions state that you might need to file out the holes a bit to make them fit smoothly, and I did. It looks to me that you will just need to open the hole up a bit to make them work.
