I just put on "C.A.M" caster camber plates and tokico shocks and struts. The shocks, struts and springs are great but the CAM caster camber plates are junk.

I figured a cc plate was a cc plate so i went on ebay and bought the CAM cc plates because not only were they only 130$ but they really looked like a quality product.

Anyway long story short they are pieces of ****, the "heavy duty poly-eurythene" bushings were shot to **** after 2 days. The instructions suck, and apparently i overtightened the strut tower nut because it doesnt say anywhere in the instructions how far to tighten down.

So today i try to order new bushings, guess what? CAM doesnt exist, the phone number they give you is disconnected...So i went to oreillys and found some bushings that actually fit better than the ones CAM gave me..

Anyway i just want to warn all of yall to stay away from CAM products....

Advice taken. Those were the plates that I was going to order next friday, too. Thanks.

I always figured that C.A.M. products were actually MAC products. The font's the same and everything... Weird.

Poly-eurythane is very crappy rubber (for suspension purposes). If I'm not mistaken, the rubber around our windshields is poly-eurythane.

Poly-urethane is the stuff you want for suspension components.

I think mine did interfere a little on my 97 cobra, but it still fit, I think i remember the top plate contacting one of the bolts on the STB...They cleared on my 95 Gt though without issues...

MM is the only CC plate I will ever use...Actually, for the most part, I will only use MM suspension products period....I do have a few steeda parts though....

If you want the best, check out Griggs. They are the best made, but will cost you.
