CC plates


Any suggestions on CC plates? I have no intentions on road racing. I am really looking for something more adjustable then factory. I have major outer tire wear, beyond what is typical for fox bodies. I bought the car with some suspension already done but the CC plates are still stock and I assume since the car is lowered about 2 inches, they are beyond the capability for further adjustments. I wish i could indentify what struts and springs are on there now but I can't.

It'll probably help, you might want to get offset rack bushings and check you toe-in before buying CC plate.

Thanks.
I do not know much about front suspension so any advice will be considered.
Right now my tires have about 10/32 on the inside and beyond 0/32 on the outside. Is it possible to get a reasonable alignment with the stock CC plates on a lowered fox?

short answer= no. if you were only lowered an inch then you could get it close and there are other tricks you could use to get it right. at 2" lowered you will need CC plates. pro3i (aka J&M) sells good ones at a reasonable price.
