How To Install 2015-2023 Mustang Maximum Motorsports Caster Camber Plates

Lowering your S550 Ford Mustang will cause the top of the front tires to "lean in" towards the center of the car, resulting in rapid and/or uneven tire wear. Especially well-suited for lowered Mustangs, Maximum Motorsport's innovative caster camber plate design provides the ability to adjust the camber setting of your Mustang's front tires. Even a car that is lowered as much as 2.5 inches can still be aligned to factory specifications.

The main plate is laser-cut from a newly available, very high-grade alloy steel, not the traditional mild steel. The increased durability of this high-strength steel greatly reduces the possibility of bending or flexing. The Maximum Motorsport spherical bearing is designed and custom-made right here in the USA. Each kit will include detailed installation instructions and all needed hardware.

Install

1. Begin by placing the car on a lift or jacking it up and placing it on jack stands.
2. Remove the factory lug nuts with a 21 millimeter socket, and then remove the wheel.
3. Remove the brake caliper with a 15mm socket.
4. Set the caliper on the rear of the k-member.
5. Remove the brake rotor and set it aside.
6. Remove the two pushpin clips that wrap the ABS wire to the ABS sensor.
7. To remove the strut, use a 21mm opening wrench for the bolt and a 24mm deep socket for the nut.
8. Loosen both nuts, but do not completely remove them.
9. The strut bolts are spline, so you will have to tap them out with a hammer.
10. Once you have tapped the bolts loose, go ahead and remove the nuts.
11. Loosen the three strut tower bolts with a 16mm deep socket, but do not completely remove the nuts.
12. Remove the sway bar end link nut with a 17mm opening wrench and an 18mm deep socket.
13. Remove the strut tower nuts, the sway bar end link, and remove the strut from the car.
14. With a set of spring compressors, compress the factory spring.
15. Make sure each spring compressor is placed on the opposite side of one another and compress each side of the spring... alternating back and forth until the bottom of the spring starts to separate from the isolator.
16. Remove the small thread cover from the top of the strut, and remove the strut mount bolt with a 21mm socket.
17. Remove the strut mount and isolator from the top of the spring.
18. Position the stud plate through the bearing plate assembly, with the studs facing up.
19. Then reposition the factory spring perch and rubber isolator over the strut and spring assembly.
20. Slide the stud plate and bearing plate on the strut, and then tighten the previously removed strut shaft nut.
21. Release the spring compressors by alternating back and forth until the spring is uncompressed.
22. Reinstall the strut and spring assembly back into the car.
23. Install one of the included washers and nuts onto the stud, and then position the included support bracket.
24. Place two more washers and nuts over the support bracket, and then loosely tighten.
25. Reassemble your strut, sway bar end link, brake rotor, and caliper.
26. Torque the strut mount nuts to 46 lb/ft.
27. Repeat the same steps for the passenger side.
