upr caster camber plates

94-04 Mustang Billet Shark Caster Camber Plates...looking for opinions..i know they are not the best out there but are they worth 45 bucks?

mrbigjeep · December 18th, 2010, 11:10 PM

uh 45 bucks? yeah!

they have lifetime warranty as well.

cliffyk · December 18th, 2010, 11:18 PM

I assume they are used or unwanted?

My brother has them on his '99, they are OK--not great but OK.

I have the Steeda 4-bolt plates and FWIW they are far superior...

what do they do differently??

The UPR sharks don't let you slide the plates up and down for camber like others. You're stuck with the factory range of motion, but with 2 different settings to use, which actually works OK, but isn't the greatest setup, and makes it a lot harder to adjust when you run out of range of motion on the holes you're setup with. You have to take them off, and then reinstall them in the other holes.

In this picture of my car, you can kind of see what I'm talking about. You can slide them front/back for caster, but you have to choose a hole for camber, instead of just sliding them up and down.

Also, they are much less robust than any of the 4-bolt plates, here's a shot of the Steeda's on my car...

cbjohnson9 · December 21st, 2010, 02:04 PM

I'd go with a set of 4 bolts...much easier to adjust

mmassa · December 21st, 2010, 02:22 PM

i would like to but funds wont allow me to at the time.. but for 45 bucks i figured it would be cheaper than new tires..
