Rebuilt the front end and the rear end and CC plates put everything back together took the car for a drive and it drives fine really just a slight little vibration I mean very slight it's not even really noticeable to the point of doing anything or any harm in my opinion. I turn the steering wheel loose and it doesn't try to go all over the road even on a ragley road lol. What are the chances that I do not need an alignment? I followed sve's video with pretty much pulling the plates all the way to me toward the fender and then all the way toward the window as a good starting point.

The wheels look fine they are nice and straight no nothing odd looking about them and actually when I did my 94 and put on the hotchkas plates from the other car, it had a slight wheel inward look and I took it by drugs and he said it looks fine and just keep an eye on the tires and I'm probably good to go so I haven't even gotten that aligned a few years ago.

So I put on new control arms used bilsteins shocks and struts sve caster camera plates and in the rear end just for reference yeah it's totally rebuilt axle housing bushings used j&m arms off the other car, changed out opinion seal, new spring iso and the rear but I reused the fronts.

Get it aligned. You could have a slight issue with one or all three adjustments and wear tires out prematurely.

So in general taking a mustang that's lowered to even a good shop like Gerald's tires one of the reputable places here and around, they should know pretty much where to set your alignment at to get the best out of your tires as far as weae and how you plan to drive the car?

I spoke with maximum Motorsports a little while ago and they said pretty much every driver is going to probably have a different alignment not everyone's going to be the same so I guess it's not an exact science as far as numbers overall that's going to be the same for every person necessarily?

So in the MM CC plates install instructions are alignment settings. I would go with those and have it aligned. This is what I did and the car has handled great for a long time. Even if the CC plates are not MM they are good specs.
