they said $200.00, drop off for the day,will try some kits to see what he could do? weekdays only,weekends to busy.
may need a couple kits per side,i dont feel this is the place.
not confident on the phone,he said he'll get it aligned but may take some
different bolts from different kits/cars to work!
any other places? just want to take it,sit and wait,and drive away.
thanx again

They make camber adjustment bolts slyly don't have to spend so much on plates but you'll def need one of the 2

After the plates or bolt kit it's needs alignment

from what i hear and see bolts will be needed.
they said they were going to use whatever bolts work to get it right.
thats what makes me feel uneasy,you would think they know a mustang
kit/bolts are made! right?
i'm going to take it to freeway tire in dover,i used to deal with them alot back in the day,anthony the son seems to know his stuff,and john in the garage has many years of being a tech. he will look at it with me,and let me watch him do the work if i want.
i will keep you all updated,price,ect...
also going to look into gettin some 285's on the rear? only runnin 255 now.

if it's only out slightly, you can try the Eibach Camber bolts for $25. The are only good for a 1.75% change.

http://www.americanmuscle.com/eibach...olts-0512.html

if the tires show wear after a short time, your camber is way off. You may need to go with MM CC plates for $340 (ouch)

http://www.americanmuscle.com/maximu...tes-05-07.html

for some reason the 2005 and up CC plates are a lot more expensivce than 2004 and earlier.

good luck. Hopefully, the Eibach bolt will work for you.
