Mustang Alignments Part 2: Adjusting Camber, Caster, Toe & More

[@JesseAndMike]

Great part two!

I have all these parts on my Mach 1. I’ve been very pleased with being able to easily set my own alignment. I have a set of Smart Racing Products Smart Strings and the hands free version of their camber gauge. I’ve also built 10” tall wheel stands and incorporated Masonite slip plates on each corner. I have found that after setting rear alignment, lifting the rear of the car up by the rear diff housing until the tires are just off the stands makes access to the camber arm adjustment turnbuckle and lock nuts easier.

Another great informative video!! Thank you both for doing these and thank you Steeda, where Speed, REALY does matter!

I just installed Steeda Dual Rate springs, Steeda Camber bolts & 1” spacers for my 2024 MagneRide PP car. The front seems to be in good position. However, the rear is visually obvious in negative camber. The alignment shop took a look at it and they suggested to leave it as it is. Do you recommend installing rear Camber adjusting bracket to zero it out ? I need some guidance.

i have a left rear toe problem. its balding my rear tires. Should i replace the toe link? i got an aligment and im still having problems!

What is the part Nr. of the optional Camber arm lockout plates? My steeda adjustable camber arms came without them. I had my camber arm slipping in the slot after some time at the drag strip.

Camber bolts for performance: are they not recommended because they may break , move, or what?

[@steedaautosports]

There's a series of reasons, (limited adjustment, not holding the alignment as well, different pivot points, etc.) that we go more in depth in a more recent video --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGGkkn2knbaZmLc

Very cool video. So if there's no factory adjustment on camber (I think that was what you said) then when someone installs your parts will the alignment shop know they can now adjust it? Or will that be something that needs to be pointed out to them?

Whenever lowering a Mustang, we always recommend to pick up either camber plates or camber bolts to aid in dialing in your front alignment. Hope this helps! -Chris

I need some guidance for some recommended parts for my PP1S550. I already bought the dual rate Steeda springs and the front camber plates. I wanted to add the vertical links and the rear adj. camber arms and adj. toe arms. My purpose is to do ocasional road racing. Please provide suggestions. Should I change my sway bars?

Hi David - It sounds like you're well on your way! The Dual Rate Springs and Camber Plates are a great way to get started! I'd recommend picking up at least the IRS Subframe Support Braces, Alignment Bushing Support System, and Alignment Kit to get you started. Adjustable Camber Arms and Toe Links will allow your alignment shop to more easily dial in camber. Vertical Links and Sway Bars can be added in the future without adjusting the alignment. Hope this helps! -Chris
