C/C Stock Specs

PowerShiftz02GT · March 17th, 2009, 07:46 PM

hey what are the C/C Stock specs for a New edge gt?

Lefty · March 17th, 2009, 08:57 PM

Uh could you rephrase the question? Are you asking whats the adjustability limits or what?

PowerShiftz02GT · March 17th, 2009, 09:01 PM

like once i put my lowering springs on, my geometry will be off. So the whole reason to get C/C Plates is to re align the struts right? So whats the Stock Alignment numbers? the degrees and stuff i guess. You know what i mean?

The stock alignment setting i guess is another way of saying it?

I'm not really sure. Let me ask you this...how low are you dropping your car?

PowerShiftz02GT · March 17th, 2009, 09:06 PM

H&R SS springs

So 1.7ish in the front

schwarzGT · March 17th, 2009, 09:06 PM

Camber .6 degrees negative
Caster 3.6 degrees positive
Toe-in .25 degrees

With that much of a drop you'll need aftermarket C/C plates. I prefer MM C/C plates.

Around here, for a 4 wheel alignment, shops will charge anywhere from $65-$100. Just depends on the shop.

I just ordered my MM CC plates from ebay

some guy out in washington had them for $189.99 shipped

schwarzGT · March 17th, 2009, 09:15 PM

These are the specs that ford prefers, they allow for a bit more/less for tolerance. I got these numbers from the instructions that came with my MM plates. I aligned my car to these specs the best I could then ran it to an alignment shop, they said I was dead on for camber and caster and they only had to make a minor adjustment to the toe.

PowerShiftz02GT · March 17th, 2009, 09:18 PM

^^^^^^ok yeah i remember you saying that a couple days ago. Ok i didnt think the Specs came with the C/C Plates. I thought you had to find that info on your own. good to know.

thanks man.

Rep+++

but hey what tool do you use to align it? Im assuming you didnt have the computer alignment machine

With the lowering springs you're going w/ I can almost guarantee you aren't going to be able to align your car properly/correctly with the stock plates.

Def. go with those. I have MM's and I wouldn't have gone w/ any other.

schwarzGT · March 17th, 2009, 09:28 PM

Word, well the number one thing to remember is the order of alignment...Caster, Camber, Toe. If you adjust it in that order you will have a much easier time aligning with alot less frustration. I used an angle finder to set my caster and camber. I work part time at an auto shop so I had access to this old alignment tool for adjusting toe. It had a fixed 90 degree edge on one side that would go across one wheel then it had a movable side with an angle finder on the other. You can try and measure from outside to outside with a tape measure to get it close, but I would definitely take it to a shop to have them fix it for you

PowerShiftz02GT · March 17th, 2009, 09:29 PM

Lefty did you align them yourself or did you take them somewhere?
